Epiphytes:
1. are aerial vines common in tropical regions
2. are parasitic and use haustoria
3. live in oligotrophic soil and digest insects to obtain nitrogen
4. grow on other plants but do not obtain nutrients from their hosts

The endosymbiosis between early eukaryotes and the prokaryote lineage would be an example of:

Earliest vascular plants on land acquired water and mineral nutrients most likely by:
1. absorption by trichomes.
2. diffusion through stomata.
3. the help of symbiotic mycorrhizae.
4. osmosis through the root hairs.

Mycorrhizal hyphae helps in:
1. absorbing minerals and ions
2. maintaining cell shape
3. increasing cellular respiration
4. anchoring a plant

The population with the following age pyramid:

1. Will grow exponentially in near future

2. Will grow steadily in the future

3. Is likely to remain stable in future

4. Is likely to decline in future

The type of population interaction exhibited by visiting flamingos and resident fishes in South American Lakes, is also shown by

1. Sparrow eating any seed.

2. Cuckoo and crow.

3. Abingdon tortoise and goats in Galapagos island.

4. Sea anemone and clown fish.
