Considering these statements;
F. the heart is composed of muscle tissue
G Hormones can trigger asthma attacks
H The rib cage expands to move air into the lungs
J blood cells can attackpathogens
The most appropriate statement that describes one possible interaction between the endocrine and the respiratory systems is G. Hormones can trigger Asthma attacks. 
Endocrine systems releases hormones into the bloodstream so that one organ can communicate with another. Respiratory system brings in air to the lungs, where it diffuses into the bloodstream and also excretes carbon dioxide.

A bond of the following elements would be of what type? Na + Cl <br><br> Covalent or ionic
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

ionic

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.

There are one valance electron in sodium so it needed to lose one valance electrons to complete the octet while chlorine needed one electron to complete the octet. Thus electrons lost by sodium atom is gained by atom of chlorine and form ionic compound.

2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl

List at least 3 interesting facts about something you have learned so far in Unit 2 Ecology. Please use at least 2 to 3 Sentence
Oksanka [162]

1.)Coral reefs are busy underwater ecosystems. Some people call them the “rainforests of the sea.” The corals look like rocks but actually are animals. They have hard calcium carbonate skeletons like clams. They form a base for lots of other organisms to live. You’ll find crabs, sea stars, worms, clams, sponges, jellies, sea turtles, and lots of fish. Coral reefs are complicated and very fragile. They are easily affected by pollution.

2.) Tropical rainforests are near the equator where it’s almost always warm and wet. These are the key ingredients for making lots of lush plants and trees. Half of the world’s plants and animals live in tropical rainforests. It’s a very busy ecosystem with many kinds of plants, animals, fungi, and microscopic organisms. Many of them live here and nowhere else.

3.) In the world’s many deserts, there is very little rain. The land is very, very dry. Here, living things have creative ways of finding and saving water. Cactuses are very good at storing water. They can live without rain for months. The kangaroo mouse lives in the Nevada desert. It rarely drinks water. It can get its water from the food it eats.
