Biology
1 answer:

6 0

Answer:

HCl

Explanation:

Some easy ways to identify if a compound is an acid is to locate an H+ proton, while basic compounds will have an OH- ion.

Examine all the choices:

A) NaOH

Already, we see that OH is here, so it's a base, not an acid. Eliminate.

B) NaCl

This doesn't have an H+ or an OH-, so it's not an acid. It's actually a salt. Eliminate.

C) HCl

This does have an H+, so it's an acid.

D) CH_4

Although this does have an H, it's a hydrocarbon - an organic compound. So, it's not an acid.

The answer is thus C.

gavmur [86]

When a population is small in a habitat, its population growth is exponential. This means it doubles its population with every generation. This is because there is plenty of resources and little competition between individuals of the population. However, as the population grows bigger, the population reaches carrying capacity (the maximum number that the ecosystem can hold). The growth slows and stagnates as stiff competition results to an equal death rate as birth rate.

If humans had been present to build log structures during the Carboniferous period (though they were not!), which plant types wo
aliina [53]

Answer:

The plant types suitable during that period would be ferns, horsetails, and lycopods.

Explanation:

A geologic period and system, which covers 60 million years from the termination of the Devonian period to the start of the Permian period is known as the Carboniferous period. During the Carboniferous period, the plant life was luxuriant and extensive, mainly at the time of Pennsylvanian. It comprises ferns and fernlike trees, that is, the giant horsetails known as club mosses, calamites, or lycopods like Sigillaria and Lepidodendron.  

Thus, if humans had been present to construct log structures during the Carboniferous period, then they would have used logs of ferns, horsetails, and lycopods for construction work.
