Answer:

2.627775588 degrees Celsius (with 2 sig figs)

Explanation:

We need to use our equation q=m×s×(change in temp) and solve for our change in temperature. So divide both sides by m×s and you'll get:

Change in temp=q/(m×s) Where q= J of heat m=mass and s= specific heat

So now we just plug our numbers in:

56J/(23.6g×0.903J/g°C)= 2.627775588 and since 56 only has 2 sig figs, we round the final answer to 2.6°C

Explain how temperature and amount of precipitation can affect the type of plants and animals found in the grassland biome?
MArishka [77]
Temperature grasslands have hot summers and cold winters. Summer temperatures can be well over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, while winter temperatures can be as low as -40 degrees Fahrenheit. They typically have between 10 and 35 inches of precipitation a year, much of it occurring in the late spring and early summer. As climate conditions shift geographically so will the distributions of many plants and animals. The relatively flat terrain of grasslands increases vulnerability to climate change impacts, because habitats and species must migrate long distances to compensate for temperature shift.

Tigers and crocodiles are more closely related than tigers and sharks. Which statement about shared characteristics best support
Luda [366]

Answer: Crocodiles and tigers both have four legs

Explanation: Even when sharks and tigers are both meat eaters, the question is about similarities between tigers and crocodiles, so D is out. A is about crocodiles and sharks, so it's out also. B suits for sharks too, so it's out too. C is the most suitable answer, because both animals have four legs, which means that they belong to the group of quadrupede animals.
