If New York experiences drought conditions during April, May, and June 2022, how would you expect local tree rings to differ compared to rings made in 2021 (which had normal rainfall)? Early wood cells would be larger in 2022, creating thicker rings Late wood cells would be larger in 2022, creating thicker rings Early wood cells would be smaller in 2022, creating thinner rings Late wood cells would be smaller in 2022, creating thinner rings Rings would be similar both years as water amount has little effect during spring and early summer

3) Read carefully and answer the questions. In the forest of the three peaks is an ecosystem with a high diversity of plants and animals. It is located in the central mountain range and is considered the place with the third highest elevation on the island. In this type of voice, the rain is abundant and the average annual temperature is 18 to 24 ° C. It is a forest with a high concentration of organic material and minerals. Among the plant species are the Tabonuco, Magnolia, Palma de Sierra, the native Oak, among others. Some of the terrestrial animals that we can find in this forest are the melodious Coqui (eats insects), the green grasshopper (consumes leaves), the spotted lizard (consumes insects), El Guaraguao (house diversity of prey), the Turkish pigeon (eats seeds and fruits), the woodpecker (eats insects), the common rat (eats all kinds of food), and the fruit bat (eats fruits).

need help Question-On the Arctic tundra, it is often very windy and extremely cold, but temperatures and wind speed are much more favourable within 30 cm (about 12 inches) of the ground. Included among the plant community in the tundra biome is a species of tree called a willow. Elsewhere, in more southern, warmer parts, willow trees can grow 10 to 12 m (30 to 40 feet ) tall. However, on the Arctic tundra, willows are rarely taller than 30 to 40 cm (12 to 14 inches) with their branches spreading along the ground rather than being upright. This saves the trees from rapid changes in temperature and from extreme cold. This also allows them to become completely covered in snow (an insulating blanket) for further protection during winter. This is an example of ______. A. Genetic driftB.All of the aboveC. MutationD. Natural selectionE.Gene flow (migration)
