Which of the following is an example of an abiotic ecological factor?
Temperature
Competition
Predation
Symbiosis
Correct answer is A
Abiotic ecological factors are non-living factors that influence an ecosystem. They include physical and chemical factors such as temperature, sunlight, water availability, soil composition, and air quality.
Xylem
Epidermis
Parenchyma
Phloem
Correct answer is A
The tissue responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant is called xylem. Xylem is a complex tissue composed of specialized cells, such as tracheids and vessel elements, which form long, interconnected tubes. These tubes facilitate the upward movement of water and minerals through the plant. Xylem also provides mechanical support to the plant.
