<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Burning of paper produces three products which are ash, smoke and dust. The equation follows:

\text{Paper}\xrightarrow[]{Heat}\text{Ash + Smoke + Dust}

Every equation follows Law of Conservation of Mass. This law states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another. In a chemical reaction total mass on the reactant side is always equal to the total mass on the product side.

<u>On the reactant side:</u>

Mass of paper = 4.8 grams

<u>On product side:</u>

Mass of ash = 0.1 g

Mass of smoke = 2.2 g

Total mass = 4.8 g

Mass of Dust = 4.8 - ( 2.2 + 0.1) = 2.5 g

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

Before the presence of living organisms earth was a very different place match each fact about about Precambrian earth to the sp
Stolb23 [73]

The correct matches are:

- Atmosphere - Oxygen spilled into this sphere from ocean waters;

The majority of the oxygen in thee Precambrian Earth was not in the atmosphere, but instead it was in the ocean waters. With the emergence of life, large portions of this oxygen went into the atmosphere as it was released as a waste product.

- Biosphere - Cyanobacteria started to emerge as a life form;

The cyanobacteria were one of the earliest life forms. They were producers, and started to use the process of photosynthesis in order to produce food. The usage of this process caused lot of changes on the Earth later on.

- Hydrosphere - Oceans contained far less salt than they do today;

The rocks and minerals in the Precambrian Earth were not weathering and eroding in the manner they are now. Instead they were kept compact for much longer periods, influencing the mixture of of different components with the water as well in meantime.

- Lithosphere - Oxidation in rocks and minerals was not possible;

Because there was way to small amount of oxygen in the atmosphere, very close to 0%, the oxidation of rocks and minerals was not possible, as the oxygen is the gas that causes this process.

Explain how natural selection can be involved in speciation and the role that isolation can have in this.
evablogger [386]

Natural selection would cause speciation because the new advantageous traits introduced in the population would help species survive and adapt to the new environment they are in because of isolation. The ability to make best from available leads to speciation in isolation.

Explanation:

Natural selection is a an important element of evolution. The change in traits which are beneficial and heritable are transferred from one generation to other. These traits come from random mutations.

Speciation is a process in which an existing population diverge in to two distinct population or species due to geographic barrier or without it also. The speciation occurs when species from one group become reproductive isolated.

When a group of species become isolated on an island or some other geographic boundary.

The increase or introduction of new beneficial genes in a population is caused by natural selection process. The populations manage to survive and adapt the new environment and become a new species if left isolated.
