In the rain forest, strangler fig seedlings begin growing on other trees, wrapping roots around the host tree. When the roots reach the ground, the strangler fig takes root and grows larger than the host tree, taking nutrients from the host tree and growing to the height of the rain forest canopy.
What is the evidence for the statement "The fig competes with other trees for sunlight."
En el bosque tropical, las plántulas de la higuera estranguladora empiezan a crecer en otros árboles, envolviendo con sus raíces al árbol huésped. Cuando las raíces alcanzan el suelo, la higuera estranguladora echa raíces y crece más larga que el árbol huésped, tomando nutrientes del árbol huésped y creciendo hasta la altura del dosel del bosque tropical.
"La higuera compite con otros árboles por la luz solar"
A It rains every day in the rain forest ecosystem, which provides the fig with enough water to survive.
A Llueve todos los días en el ecosistema de la selva tropical, que proporciona a la higuera suficiente agua para sobrevivir.
B The rain forest floor does not receive much sunlight, so the fig must grow taller than other trees.
B El suelo de la selva tropical no recibe mucha luz solar, por lo que la higuera debe crecer más alta que otros árboles.
C Producers, like the fig, make their own food, while consumers obtain food from other organisms.
C Los productores, como la higuera, elaboran su propio alimento, mientras que los consumidores obtienen alimento de otros organismos.
D Plants convert carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight into glucose, which are living components in the rain forest ecosystem.
D Las plantas convierten el dióxido de carbono, el agua y la luz solar en glucosa, que son componentes vivos del ecosistema de la selva tropical.
