Answer:
Organism in a lichen that provides protection - algae
Organism in a lichen that provides nutrients through photosynthesis - algae
Branched growth form of lichen - fruticose
Leafy growth form of lichen - foliose
Small and flat growth form of lichen - crustose
Explanation:
<em>Lichens are composite organisms that are formed from symbiotic relationships between fungi and cyanobacteria/algae. The Green algae layer offers food to the fungi by photosynthesis while the latter supplies nutrients and offers protection to the algal component. </em>
There are different types of lichen based on the growth structure:
Fruticose lichens grow upright and shrubby and posses either round or flat branches.
Foliose lichen appears like a leaf with upper and lower layers. They are usually flat or convoluted in nature.
Crustose lichens are small in appearance with flat, crusty growth on surfaces on which they grow.
Sugar production would stop meaning the plant doesn't have the needed nutrient to make food for itself causing another factor : photosynthesis to stop aka the plant would die and wither
<span>Wetlands help reduce erosion through B. sediment trapping.
Soil and rocks are trapped and then there is no erosion or crumbing of the ground and rocks.

Correct answer: D). The organism is buried in sediment and then dissolved by underground water
Mold is a copy of an organism, it is formed like the first layer of sediments harden and forms a mold. Then after that new layer of sediment fills and become hardens.
The fossil is left behind in sediment, which removes the remains of an organism from its surrounding material. The groundwater along with its mineral content dissolves the organic matter to form the fossil.
When comparing the birth patterns of humans and non-human primate, Rosenberg and Trevathan discovered some very clear differences:
1. The human period of labour and child birth is exceptionally long and painful compared to other non-human primates.
E.g. a human labour can last anywhere from 10-20 hours while that of a chimpanzee lasts only 2 hours.
2. Humans have the ability to walk straight, the trade off however is that it is extremely difficult and painful to give birth to a big brained human baby.
