6. Which of the following statements about protists is true?

VikaD [51]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

The Correct answer is... <em>C.</em><em> Protists are a catch-all group for eukaryotes that aren't plants, fungi, or animals</em>.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Let's break it down!

~~~

A. Protists are all <u>heterotrophic</u>.

The given statement in answer choice A. is (partially correct) FALSE.

<em>The following statement is TRUE... The protist is classified as </em><em>either</em><em> </em><u><em>autotrophs</em></u><em> or </em><u><em>heterotrophs</em></u><em>.</em>

~~~

B. Protists can't <u>live in freshwater</u>.

The given statement in answer choice B. is also FALSE.

<em>TRUE... Nearly </em><em>all protists exist</em><em> in </em><u><em>some type of aquatic environment</em></u><em>, </em><u><em>including freshwater</em></u><em>.</em>

~~~

C. Protists are a catch-all group for <u>eukaryotes</u> that aren't <u>plants, fungi, or animals</u>.

The given statement in answer choice C. is CORRECT!

<em>TRUE... As the </em><em>catchall term</em><em> for </em><u><em>eukaryotic organisms</em></u><em> that are </em><em>not animals, plants, fungi</em><em>, or any single phylogenetically related group, it is not surprising that few characteristics are common to all protists.</em>

~~~

D. Protists are all <u>parasitic</u>.

The given statement in answer choice D. is (partially correct) FALSE.

<em>TRUE... </em><em>Many</em><em> protists are </em><u><em>pathogenic </em></u><u><em>parasites</em></u><em> that must infect other organisms to survive and propagate.</em>

<em>~~~</em>

Therefore, the correct answer choice is C.

Which statement best describes the energy changes associated with evaporation and boiling

KIM [24]

Atoms gain energy during evaporation and boiling

When a liquid begins to boil, it means its molecules and atoms are gaining increased kinetic energy and the molecules are getting further apart and the liquid is beginning to turn to gas.

Explanation:

Gas begins to form in the liquid and lift to the surface as bubbles and escaping into the atmosphere. The vapor pressure of the liquid also overcomes the atmospheric pressure in this stage allowing the change of phase. This can only occur as long as the molecules and atoms of the liquid continue to gain energy. This is the reason that even though you keep heating the liquid, it remains at its boiling point temperature as it changes phase. This energy is referred to as the latent heat of vaporization.

Klay is performing an experiment that involves heating a beaker of water on a hot plate. Which is a potential hazard that could

Gekata [30.6K]

The hot plate is the greatest hazard do to the fact that the hot plate will be hotter than the water. It is also plugged into the wall so there is a hazard of if water is spilled onto the hot plate. You could get burned by the electrical water and cause a fire.
