Trees incorporate [ Select ] from CO2 into [ Select ] , which means that the [ Select ] is the most important source of a tree's biomass. As CO2 levels rise, [ Select ] may also increase, but increased CO2 leads to [ Select ] global average temperatures, which may limit where trees can grow. Answers may be used once, more than once, or not at all.

Two plants are in a set-up wherein they are exposed to wind (fan). Plant 1 had a transpiration rate of 1.15 while Plant 2 had a transpiration rate of 1.86. Your primary goal is to conserve water. Based on the given, which plant is not suited to be planted in windy slopes of the watershed?
t or f If a pesticide was applied to gourds and started to bioaccumulate in them, biomagnification would result in high concentrations of the pesticide in wild dogs. If a flood removed 50% of ants, then the biomass of pheasants would also decrease by 50%. Assume pheasants are not directly affected by flooding. Ants and mice may be competing for tulips.
Forest trees have trunks, branches, and big roots, contributing to large amounts of total biomass. Grasslands have comparatively less biomass, but have a larger net primary production than that of forests. Why is this so? A. Less respiration is needed in the forest habitat B. More biomass is added in a grassland in the same time as that of forests C. The number of consumers within the forest is greater D. Solar energy is converted to chemical energy at a much higher rate in forests
