Answer is Area = 16

*note answers rounded to nearest hundredth

Step by step

The distance between two points formula is

d=√((x2 – x1)² + (y2 – y1)²)

(1,7) and (5,3) length points
(5,3) and (3, 1) width points

Length
d = √ (5-1) ^2 + (3-7) ^2
d = √ 16 + 16
d = √ 32
d = 5.66

Width
d = √ (3-5)^2 + (1-3) ^2
d = √ 4 + 4
d = √ 8
d = 2.83

(1,7) and (5,3) = 5.66 length
(5,3) and (3, 1) = 2.83 width


Area is L x W

A .= 5.66 x 2.83

A = 16

What role does disturbance play in succession?
lara [203]

Answer:

Disturbances can leave legacies or traces in the landscape, vegetation or soils of variable duration. They can alter the ecological succession.

Explanation:

Ecological succession is the evolution that occurs naturally, producing a dynamic ecosystem.

A disturbance is any discrete and external event that alters an ecosystem, community or population, which changes the availability of resources or physical environment.

Agents of natural disturbances:

• Winds (storms, hurricanes, tornadoes)

• Tree falls

• Moving water (floods)

• Landslides

• Frost

• Droughts  

• Fires

• Animals (grazing, pests)

Human disturbances:

• Agriculture and grazing

• Mining

• Pollution

• Irradiation

• Fires

The disturbances, depending on their characteristics, can leave legacies or traces in the landscape, vegetation or soils of variable duration. They can alter the ecological succession.

Explain the main reason why the position of the moon in the sky changes over the course of a single night. In other words why is
Afina-wow [57]

Explanation:  The moon changes its visual position relative to the earth during one night because the earth revolves around its axis. As the earth revolves around its axis it means that within a few hours an observer at a certain point on earth will, due to the earth's rotation, change the angle at which he sees the moon.

The fact that the moon also moves, that is, rotates around the earth, and that it takes about a month for a full rotation around the earth, is why we will see the moon in a different position in the sky at the same time next night.
