Phantasy [73]3 years ago
7 0

Persian windmill blades were vertical, like propellers,  while European ones were horizontal, like egg-beaters.

<u>Explanation: </u>

A windmill is a functioning engine sort of thing. This transforms energy from the wind into rotational energy. For this reason this requires vanes called sails or blades. The very first windmills featured with long vertical shafts with blades designed like rectangles who lived in ninth-century Persia.

Six to twelve sails were produced of those windmills. The sails had been coated with matting reed or fabric. They differed greatly from the European editions. In 13th century China a similar nature of vertical shaft windmill with rectangular blades was found used for irrigation. Overall around 60 AD vertical axle windmills had been found in eastern Persia. In the 1180s northwestern Europe developed horizontal axle windmills. It is the form that is often employed today.

What effect does the increased temperature have on the ecology and distribution of plant species
Aliun [14]

Hello!

Higher temperature affects plants’ growth especially in temperate crops like wheat. It reduces the growth of shoots and roots in plants. This, in turn, results in a substantial reduction in the overall height of the plant. High air temperature can lead to dehydration and scorched leaves.

In general, the increase of temperature would cause a damage in ecology of a certain area as most plants would not be able to adapt to this change. This, in turn, will affect the distribution of such plant species as they would die off unless placed in an environment with more favorable conditions.

Match the following terms and definitions. 1. an organism that can make its own food commensalism 2. a symbiotic relationship be
Dmitriy789 [7]

Terms matched with the right definitions.  

1. An organism that can make its own food – Autotroph

2. A symbiotic relationship between two organisms in which one species benefits and no effect is apparent to the other species – Commensalism.  

3. A cell that has a membrane-bound nucleus and/or organelles as its major characteristic -Eukaryote.  

4. The study of organisms that are too small to be seen with the naked eye - Microbiology.  

5.  A disease-causing organism - A germ pathogen.  

6. A one- or few-celled organism with chromosomes; may have characteristics of both animals and plants – Protist.


An autotroph is an organism that produces its own food from simple substances available in its environment. Autotrophs usually use inorganic chemical reactions or light energy in producing their food and are usually the producers in a food chain. Examples of autotrophs are plants and algae.


Commensalism is a type of relationship between organisms of two species where one organism benefits from the relationship and the other organism is not affected by it (neither benefits nor harmed).
