Answer: The field is experiencing <em><u>Secondary succession.</u></em>
Explanation:
Ecological communities change slowly over time. While <em>primary succession</em> is initiated by pioneer species in areas that haven't previously been colonized; secondary succession always follows other communities. <em>Secondary succession</em> follows major disruptions in communities like fires, storms, flooding and even human disturbance.
The field becoming overgrown is typical of secondary succession. After years of disuse, the field is being occupied by species more <em>capable</em> of thriving in changed conditions. The community may be on its way to becoming a stable climax community if no further disruptions occur.
Answer:
Explanation:
Active transport is the movement of molecules or substance from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration across a cell membrane against the concentration gradient.
Active transport requires cellular energy and are of two types:
primary active transport that uses adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and secondary active transport that uses an electrochemical gradient.
Active transport helps in the uptake of glucose in the intestines.
Cotransport or secondary active transport is the movement of molecules across a membrane it uses electrochemical potential difference that is created by pumping ions in or out of the cell.
Cotransport helps in the transport of glucose across the cell membrane.
Strangler figs are plants that attach themselves to trees for their growth and support. They absorb nutrition from the host tree and cause it to struggle to obtain sunlight and nutrients. This indicates that Strangler figs is a parasite to the trees.
Orchids are also plants that attach themselves to tropical trees. However, orchids don’t harm the host. Orchids obtain sunlight and moisture from their surroundings. This indicates that orchids are in a commensalist relationship with the trees.
Both Strangler figs and orchids exhibit symbiotic relationship of two different kinds, namely, parasitism and commensalism.
The cell would eventually shrink causing the plant to wilt.
Answer:
The options are not included but the relationship between them is MUTUALISM.
Explanation:
The question depicts a relationship between two different species of organisms (hibiscus and bumblebees) called Symbiosis. Symbiosis can be of different types depending on whether the effect of the relationship on the involved organisms. The type in this case is MUTUALISM, which is a relationship between two organisms that are both benefitting from the relationship.
The bumblebees are benefitting from the relationship by getting fed from the nectar produced by the hibiscus flower plant while the hibiscus is benefitting from the relationship by getting its pollen transferred to another plant by the bees.
