Lavoisier would have taken mercury and heated it up to 350 degrees centigrade in air and then found that a new compound was formed a red or yellow mineral which would be mercury oxide so the experimental observation would be the change in color of the mercury and the formation of a mineral with different properties from pure mercury.
Okay, I googled it because I wasn’t sure but, according to the article *ahem* “Destructive as forest fires may seem, forests often regrow in their wake. In some cases, however, forest fires become so intense they cause severe damage to the soil that may take years or even decades to repair”.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
Granite is formed when molten magma flows and cools underground.
Explanation:
Granite is an intrusive igneous rock, so it forms underground.
Answer:
C) The benthic invertebrates would decrease in population size because they are eaten by the sea ducks and the phytoplankton would increase in population size.
Explanation:
The benthic invertebrates are eaten by sea ducks. Sea ducks are eaten by bald eagles. If the bald eagle was removed, there would be more sea ducks because they will have no more predators. Since there are more sea ducks, they will need to eat more food, like benthic invertebrates. The benthic invertebrates would have a lower population because the sea ducks eat more of them.
Why not the other answers:
A) The bivalves would not increase in population size. Without the bald eagle preying on sea ducks, there would be more sea ducks, who need to eat more food, such as eating more bivalves.
The phytoplankton would not decrease. With sea ducks eating more food, more benthic invertebrates are eaten. There would be less benthic invertebrates to eat phytoplankton.
B) Tundra swans were never eaten by bald eagles. There is no arrow connecting them.
D) Wading birds were never eaten by ospreys. There is no arrow connecting them.
