I’m not how to read this graph can you help find the answer? +P+N+P+NO The productivity of the algae are limited first by phosphorus and then after addingnitrogen the algae are nitrogen limited.O If the experiment also included a treatment with added phosphorus, nitrogen, and sulfuryou would expect productivity to be even larger than the +P+N treatment.O The productivity of algae are limited first by nitrogen and then after adding nitrogen thealgae are phosphorus limited.O The productivity of the algae are equally limited by nitrogen and phosphorus.Productivity g Carbon / di A scientist is evaluating factors that may influence productivity of algae. Heconducts an experiment where has a control (C), he adds phosphorus (+P), he addsnitrogen (+N), and he adds both phosphorus and nitrogen (+P+N). Based on theresults shown below the scientist would correctly conclude:+P+N+P+NO The productivity of the algae are limited first by phosphorus and then after addingnitrogen the algae are nitrogen limited.O If the experiment also included a treatment with added phosphorus, nitrogen, and sulfuryou would expect productivity to be even lareer than the +P+N treatmentProductivity g Carbon / day

Consider figure 49.8 in the textbook. Note the red versus blue squares and the red versus blue bars in the graph. Please choose all applicable options. a.The difference in color (red versus blue) corresponds to a difference in an abiotic factor. b.The difference in color intensity (dark red versus light red) corresponds to a difference in a biotic factor. c.The difference in color (red versus blue) corresponds to a difference in a biotic factor. d.The difference in color intensity (dark red versus light red) corresponds to a difference in an abiotic factor.
In shallow coastal ecosystems dominated by seagrasses, nutrients limit primary production under low nutrient (oligotrophic) condition while light becomes the limiting factor under high nutrient (eutrophic) condition. In the conceptual model given below, identify which group of primary producers (i.e. seagrasses, macroalgae, phytoplankton) corresponds to each of the line graphs by filling in the blank boxes. Explain your answer.
Which of the following would not be included in a description of an organism’s niche? a. its trophic level b. the humidity and temperature it prefers c. when it reproduces d. its number of chromosomes
An experiment tested the hypothesis that soil pH affects the color of flowers produced by plants. A researcher measured the pH of the soil beneath 1,000 hydrangea plants naturally occurring outside, in a park, and recorded the colors of the flowers on each plant. The researcher found that when the soil pH was about 5.0, hydrangeas produced 99% blue flowers, and when the soil pH was around 7.0, the plants produced 98% red flowers. part a: Which of the following would be an abiotic factor in the plants’ environment? Group of answer choices A. daylength B. pollinators C. insects that eat the plants D. flowers E. birds part b: Did the researcher show that soil pH caused the color of the flowers? Group of answer choices A. Yes, because the researcher included 1,000 plants in the study. B. Yes, because the results very strongly showed the relationship between flower color and soil pH. C. Yes, because the researcher had a clearly stated hypothesis. D. No, because there…
What are some conditions that might lead to a mutualistic organism becoming a predator/parasite. Select all that apply. A. Mutualistic nitrogen fixation bacteria might reduce the competitive ability of their host plants in environments with high N availability, because of the energetic costs to the plants of supporting the bacteria B. none of the above C. Mutualistic nitrogen fixing bacteria can become parasites in soil with low nitrogen availability because of the energy costs to the plant of supporting the bacteria D. A mutualist fish species that feeds on ectoparasites of another fish species, might switch to feeding/removing important host tissue or secretions when ectoparasite abundance is too low.
Figure 20.12 Which of the following statements about the nitrogen cycle is false? a. Ammonification converts organic nitrogenous matter from living organisms into ammonium (NH4+) . b. Denitrification by bacteria converts nitrates (NO3) to nitrogen gas (N2) . c. Nitrification by bacteria converts nitrates (NO3) to nitrites (NO2) . d. Nitrogen fixing bacteria convert nitrogen gas (N2) into organic compounds.
State whether the following is True or False of the process of eutrophication from the overuse of fertilizers. Group of answer choices Eutrophication often starts with stimulating algal growth [ Choose ] TRUE FALSE Eutrophication results in loss of dissolved oxygen from the process of photosynthesis [ Choose ] TRUE FALSE It is the decomposition of algae after algal blooms that lead to bacterial growth causing a loss of oxygen [ Choose ] TRUE FALSE Eutrophication is a natural process and can occur in the absence of fertilizers [ Choose ] TRUE FALSE
ANSWER THE FOLLOWING: If you are to engage into aquaculture, how will you do it considering your current location and available resources. What species, level of management and culture system will you consider? (imagine your location is Philippines) On the otherhand, if all resources are available and favorable, what brackishwater and marine species will you grow/culture? Discuss your criteria of considering these species. Describe the level of management and culture system that you will employ.
