Answer:
Both, potential energy and kinetic energy depends on mass. The higher the mass, the higher the energy. However, the difference is that potential energy depends on vertical height whereas kinetic energy depends on the velocity.
Explanation:
From the formula we can see that;
Potential Energy = mass* gravitational acceleration *vertical height.
Kinetic Energy = 0.5 * mass * (velocity)^2
Correct answer is Availability of soil minerals.
There are two types of limiting factors that affect plant population in a ecosystem. They are:
- Biotic
- Abiotic
Biotic factors includes food, diseases etc. Such as Invasive weed species, seed dispersal by wind, disease-causing fungal spores are examples of biotic limiting factor.
Abiotic factors include sunlight, temperature and chemical environment. The availability of soil mineral is an example of abiotic limiting factor. Growth of plant population depends on availability of soil minerals.
