The best reason for this, in my opinion, might be because there are many, many predators in the ocean so overproduction maybe so that there will still be seahorses who survive. ( I don't know if this is totally accurate to your question but for me, that would be the first idea that comes to mind.) I hope this will help.

Explanation:

Natural selection takes place in particular kinds of populations of species due to various elements. It starts with overproduction. In biology, overproduction means that each generation exhibits more offspring than can be encouraged by the environment.  

In the case of seahorse, overproduction takes place due to the limited availability of resources and the threat of predators. The phenomenon of overproduction facilitates to better the genetic line by encouraging the survival of the fittest. As the resources are confined, so those offspring that are best able to adapt to the challenges of the environment possesses the tendency to survive.

3 redwood trees are kept at different humidity levels inside a greenhouse for 12 weeks. One tree is left outside in normal condi
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

The independent variable - Humidity levels

The dependent variable - Height

The control group - Tree kept outside of the greenhouse

Explanation:

In this study or experiment, the independent variable is the different humidity level as it is what is changed in the study to see its effect on the growth of the redwood tree. The independent variable is manipulated in the experiment to see the change or effect in the dependent variable occurs.

The dependent variable is the variable which \depends on the independent variable as the Independent variable manipulated the dependent variable is measured to the effect which is the height of the redwood trees here.

The control group is a groub of subjects that did not get the treatment that experiment group recieves as it is kept for analysing the deviation from the natural condition. The control group is the redwood trees that are kept in natural environemnt outside of the greenhouse.
