Consider what you know about biotic and abiotic factors in an ecosystem. What is one of the reasons that nutrients in a vegetable patch might be considered abiotic?

Nutrients can come from dead plants that have decomposed. Available nutrients affect the carrying capacity of garden plants. Nutrients are mostly obtained from the soil.

D-Nutrients are mostly obtained from soil

Explanation:

9.9 years

a = p(1 + rt) . . account balance after time t at rate r starting with principal p

3000 = 2500(1 + 0.0202t) . . filling in the given numbers

1.2 = 1 + 0.0202t . . divide by 2500

0.2 = 0.0202t . . . subtract 1

0.2/0.0202 = t ≈ 9.901

it will take about 9.9 years for the account balance to reach $3000.

meiosis is the first to occur after the nuclei of opposite of opposite mating types fuse
