How do endophytes affect grazing animals? A. Endophytes pull nutrients from the soil, making plants more nutritious for grazing animals.
B. Endophytes that produce toxins can be poisonous to grazing animals.
C. Endophytes fix nitrogen from the air, making plants more nutritious for grazing animals.
D. Endophytes are poisonous to plants, depriving grazing animals of forage.

Acladogram is a branching diagram that represents suggested evolutionary relationships among organisms based on the presence of unique traits. a scientist discovers a new organism that lacks limbs and does not have a true backbone. the organism lays eggs to produce offspring and has a cartilage-like rod known as a notochord running along its dorsal surface. on the cladogram below, select the species to which the newly discovered organism is most closely related.

Simulating adaptations in a species in this activity, you will discuss in detail the adaptations in a species of rain forest plants. you will build a simulation that explains the changes in the traits of the plant population over 10 years. you will also establish a scientific explanation to justify the changes in the traits of the population, * time to complete: 1-2 hours part a an organism's adaptations are specific to its native environment. an organism that lives in a coniferous forest will have different adaptations compared to an animal that lives in a tropical rain forest. the following graphs show the temperature and precipitation throughout the year for two different forests: a coniferous forest in canada, and a tropical rain forest in belize. evaluate the graphs, and then explain why plants from these two ecosystems will have different adaptations. in your answer, explain the survival challenges that plants face in these two environments.

Of seawater increases with decrease in the temperature. therefore, the cold water sinks to the deeper layers at the bottom
