A low-intesnsity forest fire helps the forest because it a) gets rid of sick and dying plants, and b) mixes nutrients into the soil.

Why do low lying plants such as scrub or tundra grow in some climates while rich forest grow in others?
At low temperature and very low light intensity only scrub vegetation can grow. For thick forests the there should be optimum temperature and high intensity of light as seen in tropical rain forests.
Which event illustrate the interaction of an abiotic factor with a biotic factor in the environment?
The low light intensity of the forest affects the growth of pine trees. The light intensity is an abiotic factor, the growth of pine trees is the biotic factor. This is your answer.
How does humidity affect forest fires?
Humidity has an important impact on forest fires in two major ways. First, long periods of low humidity tend to dry out all forest fuels to a dangerous degree. Even a few days of low humidity can increase the risks of grass and brush fires. During fire suppression, the daily cycle of humidity can cause fires to burn with more intensity during the heat of the day and "lay down" when the humidity is higher (usually at night, or during precipitation). Humidity changes the ignition point of small and light fuels, slowing down the spread of fire.

How high can a forest fire get?
Depends upon what kind of fuel, how much fuel, how dry the fuel is, what the weather is, how steep is the terrain, among other things. Most fires are quite low and spread along the forest floor or in low brush. Where the lower fuels encounter a dead or down tree, the fire may "ladder" into the upper fuels (the canopy), possibly creating a much larger fire. Fireline handbooks for fire management include safety-zone tables for forest fires that have flames up to 300 feet high.
Is an elephants intensity high or low?
High.
What is the difference between a soft and a low intensity light?
Soft usually refers to the colour shade of the light. Low intensity means that the light is dim.
How a magnitude earthquake could be classified as a low-intensity earthquake?
A magnitude of 8.0 earthquake could be classified as a low intensity by descriptions of damage to buildings and terrain. The intensity is often greatest near the earthquakes epicenter.
What are some signs of a forest fire?
Usually forest fires are started by lightening stricking barks of a trees or tree. OR bits of rubbish on the ground, like glass, catches the suns light and makes a spark, and the trees in the forest fuel the fire. Or ARSON <- BAD
How a magnitude-8.0 earthquake could be classified as a low-intensity earthquake?
A magnitude of 8.0 earthquake could be classified as a low intensity by descriptions of damage to buildings and terrain. The intensity is often greatest near the earthquakes epicenter.
What is a low intensity activity fueled by?
Low intensity exercises are mainly fueled by carbohydrates, (found in white bread, cereals) these are the primary fuel for the body's engine room.
