The answer is conduction. This is a form of heat transfer due to temperature difference, through direct contact with objects that are touching, in which the hotter object passes heat to the cooler objects by molecular collisions. Convection is another form of heat transfer in which heat travels through fluids while radiation through empty spaces.

How would the contractile vacuole of a freshwater amoeba respond is the organism was placed in seawater
morpeh [17]

The major function of the contractile vacuole of amoeba is osmoregulation. The solute concentration found in the cell of amoeba's cytoplasm is more than the solute concentration in the freshwater that surround the external part of the organism, thus, water enter the cell through osmosis. The contractile vacuole collect the excess water and expel it through an opening in the cell membrane. By doing this, the contractile vacuole maintains the water balance in amoeba. This how the contractile vacuole normally operate.

In a situation where amoeba is placed in seawater, then water from the cell cytoplasm will rush out of amoeba cell, because of the higher salt content of the surrounding medium. The contractile vacuole will respond to the situation by increasing its contraction and pumping water out the cell in an accelerated manner, this will lead to the shrinking of the cell.

Describe temperate grassland ecosystem characteristics. Include climate, an example of a producer, and an example of a consumer
Aliun [14]

Answer:

A grassland is a biome where dominant vegetation is grasses, a consumer of this biome can be a herbivore (e.g., a rabbit). Coral reefs are home to millions of species of marine animals.

Coral reefs, seaweed and forest biome

Coral reefs are fundamental for protecting wildlife in marine ecosystems.

Seaweed is a common plant in the Euphotic Zone (Sunlight Zone, also called Epipelagic Zone), along with algae and phytoplankton.

Temperate broadleaf forests are represented by areas with marked warm and cool seasons that show moderate annual average temperatures (3 °C  to 25 °C).

Examples of producers in a temperate broadleaf forest may be Eucalyptus species, whereas consumers may include, for example, elk
