1. Pay attention to the following scheme.
Environment
Rating ____________ Professor: ____________ Enc. Ed: ____________
The individual species
The individual species
Species B
Individual of species A set of living = W
Species C
How to describe, respectively: 1.1. The set consists of all individuals of the s
pecies A. 1.2. All living creatures W. 1.3. The scheme.
2. Read the text carefully and observe the figure. "On the trunk of trees can be
seen, especially in winter, tufts of a green plant - the mistletoe. This plant
fixed to the trees through the plant sinks that remove water, organic and inorga
nic substances. In winter, mistletoe gives rise to white and sugary fruits which
provide food for thrushes. These birds, trying to get rid of the seeds they bec
ome trapped in its beak, shake them in the trunks of trees. Thus, the seeds germ
inate on the spot where the bird left. 2.1. Identifies the relationship between:
Visco 2.1.1. the olive tree and the mistletoe. Justified.
2.1.2. mistletoe and thrush.
Olive tree

exposed to a short photoperiod. does not need light to survive. gives flower wh
en exposed to large photoperiod.
