Answer:

The species that develop in aquatic environments, need to be able to have an adequate locomotion and according to the hydrostatic pressure in the water, which this pressure has the opposite direction to gravity in terrestrial life.

Explanation:

Vertebrates that have a skeleton are accustomed to gravitational forces, and this bone structure is what allows adequate locomotion to perform movements as a function of the force of earth's gravity, in water the force of gravity has no effect, since that the hydrostatic force predominates, which the direction is opposite to the gravitational forces.

Amorphous bodies, with few solid structures, not bony, make them better adapt to movements in water masses that are promoted by hydrostatic forces.

jeyben [28]

Answer:

Wind

Explanation:

Gymnosperms can be described as plants which lack flowers and fruits.

As they do not have flowers to attract insects like the angiosperms, they can, however, transfer their pollen through the wind. As pollen is very light in weight hence, it can be transported by the wind. The pollen transported by the wind usually results in self-pollination as the wind is not able to take the pollen to long distances.

____ [38]
A. direct B. indirect C. direct D. indirect

Competition occurs by direct and indirect means. Organisms interact directly by fighting (aggression) for scarce resources. Two eagles fighting over the salmon carcass and two colonies of ant clashing over a wasp are samples of aggression (direct competition)

Indirect competition happens when there is a common or limited <span>supply of at least one resource  (food, water, and territory). </span>Use of this resource lessens and later depletes the amount available to others, or they compete for space.<span> Gray foxes preying on penguins and squirrels relying on nuts for food are samples of indirect competition.</span>
