Question
Chapter 28.2, Problem 4CC
Summary Introduction
To explain: The ways in which kelp forests are economically important.
Introduction: Protist contains a number of mechanisms for locomotion from one place to another. Protist can move by the help of flagella or through amoeba-shaped cells. Gliding is also a useful method of locomotion adopted by protist. Stramenopiles are the group of protist under the subgroup “Stramenophila”. This group includes algae, protozoans and so on.

- Instruction: ESSAY (Please explain the most straightforward way)Provide a substantial answer to the question below. The pine tree habitat is characterized to be arid and dry, located at higher altitudes where water conservation is a problem. Discuss three adaptations of the pine tree in this kind of habitat as observed in its leaf anatomy (external and or internal).arrow_forwardQuestion. What exactly is the significance of the branching points in the tree diagram above, and what exactly is this diagram supposed to show?arrow_forwardQuestion:- How has the size and longevity of the sporophyte and gametophyte changed with the evolution of plants?arrow_forward
- MAKE CONNECTIONS There are vast stores of organicmatter in the soils of northern coniferous forests andtundra around the world. Suggest an explanation forwhy scientists who study global warming are closelymonitoring these stores (see Figure 55.14).arrow_forwardQuestion:- Franco and Nobel (1989) discovered that there are downsides to having a nurse plant for young cacti. They found that while young cacti survive more often, they grow slower than young cacti without a nurse plant. What are the authors' two explanations for why that happens?arrow_forwardTest Your Understanding Evaluate and Synthesize 17. EVOLUTION LINK Contrast the algae, mosses, ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms with respect to their dependence on water as a transport medium for reproductive cells. Suggest a hypothesis to explain how the differences might be adaptive to living on land.arrow_forward
- EVOLUTION LINK Like stems in general, some vines are herbaceous and others are woody. Tropical rain forests have a greater diversity of vines than in any other environment on Earth, and most of these vines are woody. Develop a hypothesis to explain why natural selection has favored the evolution of more species of woody vines (as opposed to herbaceous vines) in tropical rain forests.arrow_forwardMAKE CONNECTIONS Focusing just on the effects oftemperature, would you expect the global distributionof C4 plants to expand or contract as Earth becomeswarmer? Why? (See Concept 10.4.)arrow_forwardEvaluate and Synthesize 15.

- SUBJECT: GENERAL BIOLOGY 1 / CAM and C4 Photosynthesis Plant adaptation is varied among all organisms present on Earth’s fauna. Also, we can’t deny the fact that as time goes by, the amount of carbon rises making it more complicated for the rest of organisms to adapt and survive. In relation to their specialized features, predict how C4 and CAM plants will each respond to a doubling of the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere.arrow_forwardEcologists have discovered that the seeds of many plants that grow in forests cannot germinate unless they have been exposed to fire. Design an experiment to test whether a particular plant has seeds with this requirement. Include your hypothesis statement groups, and an outline of your procedure.arrow_forwardHow do plants and animals coexist or survive? Relate your insights how mutual gas exchange helps both plants and animals to coexist.arrow_forward
