Explanation / Answer

1. In general, the more narrow a species’ habitat tolerance the larger the range of that species.

Answer: True

2. What would you say is the optimal pH for radish growth?

Answer:

PH 2-4: The weaker the plants will be in terms of germination and plant height.

PH 4-6: Average growth

PH 6-8: Grow well

PH 10-12: Plant growth will be delayed, but not inhibited altogether.

3. In the northeastern US, acid rain has historically been a problem. Based on this, what would you predict would happen if acid rain continues?

Answer: All the given answers are correct

If acid rains continue the plant vegetation would be disappeared.

4. Which of the following organisms are not classified as consumers?

Answer: Trees

Trees are autotrophs, which synthesise their own food material by photosynthesis, hence they are not considered as consumers.
