Trees that grow in a forest tend to grow very tall, with few branches. The same species of tree grown in an open area tends to grow shorter and wider, with many branches. The stimulus responsible for these different growth patterns is the amount of wind striking the tree


light reaching the tree


nutrients in the soil


water in the ground


Which one is it?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Light, water, and nutrients play a crucial role in the adaptation and evolution of species. The trees of the same species will be taller in the forests, whereas in the open grasslands the height of the trees will be short.

The correct answer is:

Option B. Light reaching the trees

The light plays a crucial role in the height of trees as:

1. Light is essential for the survival of trees. In a forest, a large number of organisms are present, which fight for shelter, food, and light. Thus, to achieve more light, trees are taller.

2. In opengrasslands, the trees are shorter and wider, because they do not have neighboring trees that fight for light and water.

Thus, the correct answer is Option B.

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

The correct answer is A) light reaching the tree

Explanation:

In a forest, there are lots of trees and they are all competing for sunlight so they are forced to focus all their energy on growing taller so they don't get stuck in the shadow of another tree, however, the trees that grow in a large, open area have little to no competition for sunlight, so they can relax and spread out their branches because there's lots of room.

Can we drink too much water?

Answers

Answer:

Although uncommon, it's possible to drink too much water. When your kidneys can't excrete the excess water, the sodium content of your blood is diluted (hyponatremia) — which can be life-threatening.

Ben shared his post with 2 friends. Each of those friends shares with 3 more every day, so the number of shares triples every day.Day Number of Shares
0 2
1 6
2 18

Write an exponential function to represent the spread of Ben's social media post.

Answers

From the data given above, we can make the following:
N(0) = 2 x 3^0 = 2
N(1) = 2 x 3^1 = 6
N(2) = 2 x 3^2 = 18

An exponential function is represented by:

y = ab^x

where a is the initial value and b is the growth rate.

The exponential function for this case would be:

y = 2(3)^x
y = 6^x

Answer: y=2(3)^x

Explanation:

The general exponential function is written as :-

y=Ab^x--------------(i)

,where y is the amount of the material after t years , A is the initial amount and b is the multiplicative rate of growth.

From the given table, the number of shares on day 0 = 2 .

Thus the initial number of shares = 2

The growth factor is given by the ratio of the consecutive terms :-

b=(6)/(2)=3

Now, put A = 2 and b = 3 in (i), we get

y=2(3)^x

∴ The exponential function to represent the spread of Ben's social media post is y=2(3)^x

At what stage in the development of cancer do the cancerous cells grow out of control and invade surrounding tissues? At what stage in the development of cancer do the cancerous cells grow out of control and invade surrounding tissues? Initiation promotion progression termination

Answers

Answer:

At the stage of progression in the cancer development, the cancerous cells shows out of control growth and invasion of surrounding tissues.

Explanation:

The cancerous cells are genetically mutated, whether it may be carcinoma or sarcoma. They grow in an uncontrolled manner by the process referred to as hyperplasia. In this process, the cells though similar in nature, proliferates to  an uncontrolled and huge number with in the tissue, thus depriving the healthy cells of the tissues of essential nutrients. Then comes the stage of dysplasia where more genetic alteration takes place in the cells making it completely different and disoriented. The cells also loses the organizational activity to retain tissue structure and functions.

Why does water roll off the surface of a leaf

Answers

Answer:

Because the surface of a leave is nonpolar. I just did it!

Explanation:

The other answer is ridiculous! Please people don't answer (guess) if you haven't actually studied this before.

All the others ARE WRONG except for this one.

Just like when you step out of a swimming pool, why does the water roll off your body? Part of the answer is that your skin is made of cells that are covered in lipids. Lipids do not mix with water because water is made of polar molecules, and lipids are nonpolar molecules.

Ever heard the word hydrophobic? Nonpolar molecules are repelled by water and do not dissolve in water; are hydrophobic. A leaf is nonpolar! Water is polar! They don't dissolve...

This is correct and true! But before submitting an answer make sure the question is the same one. Stay Safe!
