The differences in nutritional resources used by plants versus animals is also great. Plants obtain nutrients in the form of               or as simple            present in the environment. An animal begins with food in the mouth, but the nutrients occur as                in complex             which in turn are parts of               .

Based on the chart, [blank] and [blank] are root feeders that consume plant roots.

Experiment to test how one of the following variables impacts the growth of Brassica rapa: Water, Nutrient Availability, and Herbivory 1) Be thorough, how would you set up an experiment of Brassica rapa?  For example, if you plan to decrease the amount of water given to your plants how you would like to do this? If you plan to increase nutrients, think about whether you want to do this once or weekly. If you plan to simulate herbivory, think about how you will do this and how much leaf tissue you want to remove.   2) What variables will be controlled during your experiment?   In other words, what variables will be the same across the two groups?

explain why eating a more plant-based diet is helpful for reducing greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change.
