HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST IF CORRECT: What effect do plants' roots
have on rock?
a. They hold it together
b. They weather it
c. They cause it to undergo chemical changes
d. They break it apart

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: C

Explanation: Reason why is because whenever the roots put pressure on the rock it cracks open and all the minerals release so it has to be going thru a chemical change because the roots receive the minerals from the rock or stone ...

Answer 2

Answer:

im guessing d but im not sure..,

Explanation:

When these roots grow, they exert pressure on the rock around them, causing the gaps to widen or even crack. Plant roots can also weather rock through chemical processes. When dead roots decompose, they release carbon dioxide; this is sometimes converted into carbonic acid, which chemically breaks down rock into soil.

Why does the sun appear brighter than the other stars in the universe

Answers

Answer:

because its closer and bigger

Explanation:

its just closer and bigger than all of the other stars

The sun is many times larger than Earth but appears small because it is very far away. Even though the sun is very far from Earth, it is much closer than other stars. Because the sun is closer to Earth than any other star, it appears much larger and brighter than any other star in the sky.

Based on the information in the data table and the cladogram shown below, which of the following best describes the evolutionary history of lizards? (4 points)

Amniotic membrane Bipedal locomotion Hair Jaws Lack of tail Lungs
Gorilla X X X X X X
Human X X X X X X
Lamprey
Leopard X X X X X
Lizard X X X
Salamander X X
Shark X

Image depicts a cladogram with lamprey, shark, salamander, lizard, leopard, gorilla, and human represented. Shark diverges from lamprey with the introduction of jaws. Salamander diverges from shark with the introduction of lungs. Lizard diverges from salamander with the introduction of amniotic membrane. Leopard diverges from lizard with the introduction of hair. Gorilla diverges from leopard with the absence of a tail. Human diverges from gorilla with bipedal locomotion.

They are more closely related to lampreys than they are to leopards.
They evolved into a separate species as a result of the presence of an amniotic membrane.
They have jaws and lungs but lack an amniotic membrane.
They share a more recent common evolutionary ancestor with salamanders than they do with sharks. I think is D

Answers

Answer:

D. They share a more recent common evolutionary ancestor with salamanders than they do with sharks.

Explanation: Just took the test and got it correct

The cladogram shows that lizards share a more recent common evolutionary ancestor with salamanders than they do with sharks.

What is cladogram?

A cladogram is a diagram in the form of a tree wgich shows the evolutionary relationship between organisms based on similarities shared in structure or function.

The cladogram given show that sharks, lizards and salamanders have a common origin but that Lizard diverges from salamander with the introduction of amniotic membrane.

Therefore, Lizards share a more recent common evolutionary ancestor with salamanders than they do with sharks.

Which statement about how geologists study the ages of rock layers is true?
The law of superposition means that older rocks are on top.
Geologists can find the exact age of a rock by looking at its relative position.
The principle of original horizontality provides the basis for the law of superposition.
Relative age can be determined by using the concept of unconformity.

Answers

Answer: The principle of original horizontality provides the basis for the law of superposition.

Explanation:

The law of superposition in geology suggests that the rocks or sediments which are newly formed due to erosion and sedimentation of the original rocks lie above the old material. This law is supported by the principle of original horizontality according to which the newly formed sediments suspend horizontally in the layers of rocks and sediments under the effect of gravity. Thus an horizontal strata distinguishes the old and the new material.

At Weeks Bay there was a population of 200 alligators. In May of 2006 a new species of catfish was released into the Mississippi. These catfish reproduce very fast and soon become a rich food source for the alligator population. This provides the alligators with the energy needed for more successful reproduction. The following summer of 2007, 100 babies were born and a total of 40 gators died that year. However, the next year in early 2008 there was a terrible drought, causing 100 alligators to die.

1. explain how body plan and anatomy enables invertebrate to perform essential functions it needs to survive.

2. explain how body plan and anatomy enables chordate to perform essential functions it needs to survive.

3. explain how body plan and anatomy enables primate to perform essential functions it needs to survive.

Answers

Answer:

1)Invertebrates are known as creatures that do not have backbones. Even though these creatures do not have backbones, they have been uniquely designed in order to survive. According to studies, most of these creatures are found in the sea and one of them is the Star Fish or also called as the Sea Star. Starfish's functions and ability to survive is not the same like other animals which make them unique in a different way. The starfish's body is hard and bony for protection purposes and they exist in a variety of colors for camouflage. Their essential functions in order to survive are as follows:

-The Ability to Regenerate: Starfishes have the ability to grow damaged and lost limbs or even their entire body as long as the center part is still present and intact. And this is their way of reproduction as well.

-Having Tube Feet: Its arms are covered with a suction-like tiny cups of tube feet. This unique design of the starfishes enables them to move and secure themselves, especially on rocks and ocean floors.

-Unique Feeding Ability: Sea Stars don't have mouths nor teeth to ingest food. Rather, these creatures have the ability to push open or turn their stomachs out and digest its food. After digestion, their stomachs retract back to their bodies.  

-Vascular System: How starfishes survive does not rely on having hearts, brains and blood. Rather, they use the seawater. The seawater serves as the one the circulates inside the sea stars' bodies and this is when nutrients and oxygen are being transported and absorbed.

2)Keep in mind invertebrates are those who have exoskeletons (outside skeleton) or are hydrostatic (no skeleton). This make up 95% of all animals for example an ant or sponge. For a sponge, all it has is tissues that enable it to allow water to flow out the tops.  

Chordata are anything with vertebrates so a simple fish could suffice. THEY HAVE 4 SPECIFIC CHARACTERISTICS: 1.Notochord 2.Dorsal, hollow nerve cord 3.Pharyngeal slits 4.Muscual, an.al tail  

This is us, we have thumbs, and vertebrates.

3)The bipedalism of primates puts their heads on a higher elevation and this allows them to see predators or prey from afar hence giving them advantage. Opposable thumbs on the hand and feet allow primates to grasp and handle objects effectively hence are able to make use of tools for hunting and etcetera

b) more growth occurs in the root tips and very little new cell development occurs in woody stems after they are formed

c) sequential order means put things in order.

A B C D E

Hello again, Bakere!

a) Mitosis, the dividing of a single cell into two daughter cells, is a way for the plant to stay healthy-looking and strong. All cells die eventually, and they must be replaced by new, fresh ones. This replacement occurs through mitosis. Mitosis also allows the plant to grow, as mitosis is found more frequently in growing areas than ones that are finished growing. Since mitosis makes more cells, you will find much more mitosis occurring in a new shoot than in an old tree, because the old tree doesn't need a bunch of new cells to continue growing.

b) Mitosis is more frequent on the outside of the root because new cells are needed constantly as multitudes of them are scrubbed away by rough dirt. On the inside of the root, however, there is little to no exposure to harsh soil erosion. Because of this, mitosis is needed less here - only to replace the dying cells.

c) The order for the letters should be: A, E, D, B, C. I'm including a picture to help you understand why. :)
