In a food chain, energy is passed through one link to another. When a herbivore eats only a certain fraction of the energy, (which comes from the food) it becomes new body mass; the rest of the energy is lost as waste or used up by the herbivore in order to carry out its life processes (ex. movement, digestion, reproduction). It doesn’t necessarily threaten the plants survival, there’s also a benefit. When a animals poops out the fruit (defecate) in another area those seeds get carried to new places with the help of a dab of fertilizer and a little bit of moisture. They also help supply nutrients when they die and decompose.
The correct term for each statement is as follows;
- Caves being formed by acid rain dissolving underground limestone - weathering
- Deltas forming at the mouths of rivers - deposition
- Glaciers scraping rocks across the earth’s surface - erosion
- Rocks being made smooth by tumbling across a stream bed - weathering
- Ponds filling up with sediment and becoming marshes - deposition
<h3>What is weathering?</h3>
Weathering in geology is the mechanical or chemical breaking down of rocks in situ by weather or other causes. options 7 and 14 are the case in this scenario as there is a breakdown of limestone and rocks.
Erosion is the result of having been worn away or eroded, as by a glacier on rock or the sea on a cliff face. Agents of erosion are water, ice or wind. Options 12 is an example of erosion because glaciers are wearing off rocks.
Deposition is the laying down of sediment carried by wind, flowing water, the sea or ice. Sediment can be transported as pebbles, sand and mud, or as salts dissolved in water. Options 8 and 15 are examples of deposition.

CxHy + O2 --> x CO2 + y/2 H2O
Find the moles of CO2 : 18.9g / 44 g/mol = .430 mol CO2 = .430 mol of C in compound
Find the moles of H2O: 5.79g / 18 g/mol = .322 mol H2O = .166 mol of H in compound
Find the mass of C and H in the compound:
.430mol x 12 = 5.16 g C
.166mol x 1g = .166g H
When you add these up they indicate a mass of 5.33 g for the compound, not 5.80g as you stated in the problem.
Therefore it is likely that either the mass of the CO2 or the mass of H20 produced is incorrect (most likely a typo).
In any event, to find the formula, you would take the moles of C and H and convert to a whole number ratio (this is usually done by dividing both of them by the smaller value).
Valence bond theory stating that a bond between two atoms is the strongest when the nuclei of the atoms are touching each other is true.
<h3>What is Valence bond theory?</h3>
This theory states that when two valence orbitals of two different atoms overlap on each other, the bond is usually strong.
The bond formed in this scenario is usually covalent which involves sharing of the valence electrons.
