Answer:

If the earthworm's skin dries then they will not breath properly because moisture help them out to ease the diffusion of oxygen through its skin.

Explanation:

Hello,

Based on the required hypothesis, the best describing one considering the question "How is earthworm behavior affected by external stimuli?", would be:

If the earthworm's skin dries then they will not breath properly because moisture help them out to ease the diffusion of oxygen through its skin.

In this case, we are specifying a possible condition, this is "the earthworm's skin dries" which is a cause of an external stimuli (dryness). Next, we propose an effect, this is "they will not breath properly", that is caused by the initial part. Finally, we explain the effect via the cause "moisture help them out to ease the diffusion of oxygen through its skin" because is something testable via the subsequent experiments when considering the scientific method.

Best regards.

sorry about the late response...

<u>If an earthworm is exposed to dry conditions, then it will retreat to a moist place because its skin needs to stay moist for the earthworm to survive.</u>

How did democtitis define atom?
klemol [59]

Democritus, theorized that atoms were specific to the material which they composed. In addition, Democritus believed that the atoms differed in size and shape, were in constant motion in a void, collided with each other; and during these collisions, could rebound or stick together.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • One of the main atomic theorists was Democritus, a Greek philosopher who lived in the fifth century BC. Democritus realized that if a stone was partitioned fifty-fifty, the two parts would have indistinguishable properties from the whole.
  • Therefore, he contemplated that if the stone were to be constantly cut into littler and littler pieces at that point; sooner or later, there would be a piece that would be so little as to be inseparable. He called these small pieces of matter as "atomos", the Greek word for inseparable.  
  • Democritus estimated that atoms were explicit to the material which they made. Also, Democritus accepted that the particles varied in size, were an inconsistent shape, crashed into one another; and during these impacts, could bounce back or stay together. Hence, changes in the matter were a consequence of separations or mixes of the atoms as they moved all through the void.

Sulfur and oxygen form both sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide. When samples of these are decomposed, the sulfur dioxide produce
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
To determine the mass of oxygen per gram of sulfur for sulfur dioxide, we simply obtain the ratio of the mass of oxygen and the mass of sulfur produced from the decomposition of sulfur dioxide. All other values given in the problem statement above are just to confuse us that the question is a difficult one. We do as follows:

mass of oxygen per gram sulfur = 3.45 g / 3.46 g
mass of oxygen per gram sulfur = 0.9971 g O2 / g S
