Nancy learned in school that composting is a way to cycle nutrients, and as tiny ecosystems, composting requires biotic and abio

tic factors. She found four lists with ingredients to add to her compost in addition to the kitchen food scraps.
List

Biotic factors

Abiotic factors

1

fungi

worms

water

sun

2

water

worms

rocks

light

3

worms

fungi

leaves

sun

4

water

sun

fungi

worms

Which list matches with the information she received in school and why are the ingredients a good choice?
A
List 1, because it has a balance between biotic decomposers and abiotic factors needed for the worms and composting.
B
List 2, because worms and water are the only biotic factors needed. Worms as decomposers, and the water for the worms to live.
C
List 3, because the abiotic decomposers, leaves and sun provide an excellent environment for worms and fungi to start composting.
D
List 4, because for the abiotic factors to decompose the kitchen scraps, they need plenty of water and sun.

List 1 is the best choice of materials because it has a balance between biotic decomposers and abiotic factors needed for the worms and composting.

<h3>What is composting?</h3>

Composting is the process whereby remains of organic matter are keep in a favorable environment and conditions in order to allow for decomposition.

Compost consists of the right mix of biotic factors suchas worms and fungi as well as abioticfactors such as water and sun.

Therefore, based in the materials provided, List 1, because it has a balance between biotic decomposers and abiotic factors needed for the worms and composting.

How do the bonds within AND between a water molecule affect the properties of water?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
Water is a polar molecule, meaning the covalent bonds in it share electrons unequally. They spend more time around the oxygen, making it positive and the hydrogens negative. This helps water stick to surfaces, a property called adhesion. The hydrogens of one molecule are also attracted to the oxygens of another. This is called cohesion, and it helps water form droplets

The radioactive atom R 88 210 a is an alpha emitter. What nucleus does it produce?
olasank [31]

Answer:

X 86 206

Explanation:

Radioactive atoms are nuclei that can under go disintegration to emit either an alpha particle, beta particle or gamma radiation. The process could be spontaneous or stimulated.

When a radioactive atom R 88 210 emits alpha particle, it would produce an element with atomic number 86 and mass number 206 i.e X 86 206. An alpha particle is usually a helium nucleus.

                     R^{210} ⇒ x^{206} + He^{4} + energy
