Which of the following statements about communities is not correct? a) many plant species in communities seem to be independently distributed. b) some animal species distributions within a community are linked to other species. c) the distribution of almost all organisms is probably affected, to some extent, by both abiotic gradients and interactions with other species. d) ecologists refer to species richness as the number of species within a community. e) the trophic structure of a community describes abiotic factors such as rainfall and temperature affecting members of the community.

as in mitosis, dna replication occurs during interphase.   in meiosis, it occurs specifically in s phase of interphase 1.

succession returns a disturbed

ecosystem to a more stable state. this is also classified into two (2) types:

primary succession and secondary succession. the primary succession arises when

a new land is transformed and a bare rock has been exposed providing an environment

that can be occupied for the first time. while, secondary succession occurs

when a previously occupied environment was disturbed that kills much of all its

community

explanation:

measuring light intensity

light meters can be used to measure light intensity. the meter is held at the soil surface and pointed in the direction of the maximum light intensity, and then the meter is read.

errors can be made when measuring light intensity by accidentally shading the light meter. the reliability of the results can be checked by taking many samples.
