Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The answer is:

A) Its measures are based on divisions that are powers of ten.

Explanation:

The explanation for why this is the answer is that it is true and obvious that the metric measurement system relies on certain divisions and prefixes that are based on the powers of ten such as "centi-" or "milli-". In short, the metric measurement system's basis is being able to have it's measures somewhat "altered" or "adjusted" by these particular prefixes to fit the item or subject or object being measured.

What is a cyclical disturbance?a. a disturbance that removes organisms
b. a disturbance that repeats over and over
c. a disturbance that kills keystone species
d.a disturbance that destroys soil

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

A disturbance is a short term change in environmental conditions that causes a noticeable alteration in an ecosystem. If this change repeats itself over and over it is characterized as Cyclic disturbance.

This change or disturbance takes place because of several disturbance forces and in the absence of these forces ecosystem tends to return to conditions as it was pre-disturbance conditions.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

A disturbance that repeats over and over

Three cells undergo meiosis. How many haploid cells are produced
