The filament holds up the anther so that pollination and fertilization can occur!
Answer:
Option (D)
Explanation:
Weathering is usually defined as the disintegration of rocks at the surface of the earth. This break down of rocks is mainly caused by the geological processes that occur on the earth's surface. This process results in the formation of sediments that are transported and deposited in a new environment.
This weathering process primarily takes place in three different ways such as-
- Physical weathering- Here, the rocks are broken down by the physical agents such as wind, water, ice.
- Chemical weathering- Here the rocks are broken down when interacts with the chemical containing water.
- Biological weathering- here, the rocks are broken down due to the activities done by organisms such as plants and animals.
In the given condition, Quincy can see a real example of rock weathering in the high mountainous region, as in the mountainous region the rocks are frequently weathered and eroded by the agents such as wind, water, and ice.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
Explanation:
A period 3 element is one of the chemical elements in the third row (or period) of the periodic table of the chemical elements. The periodic table is laid out in rows to illustrate recurring (periodic) trends in the chemical behaviour of the elements as their atomic number increases: a new row is begun when the periodic table skips a row and a chemical behaviour begins to repeat, meaning that elements with similar behaviour fall into the same vertical columns. The third period contains eight elements: sodium, magnesium, aluminium, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur, chlorine, and argon. The first two, sodium and magnesium, are members of the s-block of the periodic table, while the others are members of the p-block. All of the period 3 elements occur in nature and have at least one stable isotope.[1]
