Notice the colonizers in diagrams C and D are taller and require more nutrients than those in the pioneer community. Considering what you already know about plants and photosynthesis, why might it be a competitive advantage for a plant to be taller? jmohn https://padlet.com/jmohn/4tru816ij82w/wish/237515154 If the plant is taller, they will receive more direct sunlight to carry out and will not be blocked out by other plants while doing so (Group 2).]]> 2018-03-02 17:34:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jmohn/4tru816ij82w/wish/237515154 12. What environmental factors may effect the type of climax community that develops in an ecosystem? jmohn https://padlet.com/jmohn/4tru816ij82w/wish/237516087 Rain fall, geology, altitude, wildlife, weather, and location can effect the type of climax community that develops (Group 4).]]> 2018-03-02 17:36:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jmohn/4tru816ij82w/wish/237516087 9.Using the diagram in Model 1 as a guide to develop a definition with your group for the term primary succession, as it relates to the colonizing of barren land. jmohn https://padlet.com/jmohn/4tru816ij82w/wish/237517364 First stage in the new environment before life begins (group 3)]]> 2018-03-02 17:39:12 UTC https://padlet.com/jmohn/4tru816ij82w/wish/237517364 19. Suggest some other human actions that may lead to plagioclimax communities. https://padlet.com/jmohn/4tru816ij82w/wish/237517490 Weeding a garden, hunting and fishing in areas, caring for a park.

Explain your answer. https://padlet.com/jmohn/4tru816ij82w/wish/237518166 No, lots of these can be caused by human activity like a forest fire, oil spills, logging a wooded area, pollution, farming, and colonization of human life starting with agriculture then buildings and pavement.

What evidence is given in Model 2? jmohn https://padlet.com/jmohn/4tru816ij82w/wish/237518223 The ecosystem may recover from this set-back. In model 2 there still exists a thin layer of soil and after 3-5 years, low growing plants begin to arise and initiate succession.

Suggest the mechanisms by which the first colonizers arrived on th land. https://padlet.com/jmohn/4tru816ij82w/wish/238703171 The first mechanisms were probably brought in by water, wind, or animals such as birds that carry in seeds or spores.]]> 2018-03-06 16:14:28 UTC https://padlet.com/jmohn/4tru816ij82w/wish/238703171
