What type of evolutionary adaptations did plants acquire to allow them to grow in areas that were not directly on a water source? A. Angiosperms evolved flowers, which could catch rainwater, reducing the dependence on ground water sources. B. Vascular seedless plants evolved specific structures to transport and hold fluids, reducing dependence on water sources. C. Gymnosperms evolved seeds, which they could alter to need less water. D. Non vascular plants evolved chloroplasts to allow them to get energy from the sun, instead of relying on water for energy.

poor water quality affects most estuarine organisms, including commercially important fish and shellfish. the pollutants that have the greatest impact on the health of estuaries include toxic substances like chemicals and heavy metals, nutrient pollution (or eutrophication), and pathogens such as bacteria or viruses.

the oxygenated blood then leaves the lungs through pulmonary veins, which return it to the left heart, completing the pulmonary cycle. this blood then enters the left atrium, which pumps it through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. from the left ventricle, the blood passes through the aortic valve to the aorta.

deoxygenated blood leaves through the right ventricle through the pulmonary artery. from the right atrium, the blood is pumped through the tricuspid valve (or right atrioventricular valve), into the right ventricle.

ever get the answers? im stuck on this as well
