How does a whale-fall community affect ocean sediment?

Biology
1 answer:
Leokris [45]3 years ago
6 0

The decomposition of the whale enriches the sediment.


<span>When a whale dies, it falls to the ocean floor. Its dead body is known as whale-fall. This whale-fall provides nutrients for a whale-fall community, which includes bacteria, crabs, worms and other invertebrates. Organic fragments from the whale-fall enrich the sediments nearby. Enrichment opportunists colonize the whalebone and surrounding sediment in order to feed on these organic fragments.</span>

Answer: d - water forming on the lid under the container

Explanation:

Condensation is the process that describes the change of state of water from gas to liquid. It happens in the water cycle when water vapor gets to the atmosphere and due to the lower temperatures turns into liquid water that then forms clouds.

In the demonstration, the container is meant to be the clouds so when water forms under the container, that is condensation happening because the water vapor has not turned back to liquid after leaving the aquarium water as water vapor.
