Biology

Weathering is when rocks, soil, or other minerals are broken down.

Erosion is the process through which weathered rock is moved from one place to another. Erosion can dissolve rock by weakening the rock or by turning it into other fragments that are very small.

Once the rock has been weakened and broken up by weathering it is ready for erosion. Erosion happens when rocks and sediments are picked up and moved to another place by ice, water, wind or gravity. Mechanical weathering physically breaks up rock. One example is called frost action or frost shattering.

Explanation:

An autotroph or primary producer is an organism that produces complex organic compounds (such as carbohydrates, fats, and proteins) using carbon from simple substances such as carbon dioxide, generally using energy from light (photosynthesis) or inorganic chemical reactions (chemosynthesis). Autotrophs do not need a living source of carbon or energy and are the producers in a food chain, such as plants on land or algae in water (in contrast to heterotrophs as consumers of autotrophs or other heterotrophs). Autotrophs can reduce carbon dioxide to make organic compounds for biosynthesis and as stored chemical fuel. Most autotrophs use water as the reducing agent, but some can use other hydrogen compounds such as hydrogen sulfide. hope this helps :D

jeka57 [31]

The claim which would not be supported by the change in specific heat capacity of water include reduction in body temperature and dehydration.

<h3>What is Specific heat capacity?</h3>

This is defined as the quantity of heat needed to raise a substance's temperature by 1 degree Celsius.

If water has a low specific heat capacity then the body temperature will increase which will lead to an increase in dehydration.

Blood has a lower concentration of hydrogen ions than cellular cytoplasm. What does that tell us about the pH?
Greeley [361]

Answer:Acids and bases In the human body, both blood and the cytosol (watery goo) inside of cells have pH values close to neutral. ... A base, in contrast, raises pH by providing hydroxide (OH −start superscript, minus, end superscript) or another ion or molecule that scoops up hydrogen ions and removes them from solution.
