The particles in a hot pan have greater kinetic energy than the particles in a cool oven mitt.
This is because as the temperature of an object increases, the particles gain more energy and therefore move faster, increasing kinetic energy.

Answer:
Reducir las actividades humanas.
Explicación:
Reducir el uso de combustibles fósiles, el uso de vehículos que funcionen con electricidad y plantar más plantas y árboles son las acciones que propondría para ayudar a que la biosfera y sus ciclos no se vean afectados. La biosfera se ve muy afectada debido a las actividades humanas, por lo que para conservar la biosfera y mantener su ciclo, tenemos que reducir las actividades humanas que causan más daños a la biosfera.
Answer:
Option (B).
Explanation:
The relationship between closely related species can be studied by their evolutionary tree. The two species are closely related if they have similar characteristics and nucleotide sequence.
Species A has the DNA sequence TAGCTTAGGGACGG whereas species B has the DNA sequence TACCTTAGGGACGG. These two species have identical nucleotide sequence with minor differences. Hence, these two species are closely related with each other.
Thus, the correct answer is option (B).
Answer:
These structures that protect the sponges from most predators, but not turtles, are spicules.
Explanation:
Sponges <em>skeleton</em> is composed of <em>calcium carbonate and siliceous</em> micro-structures called <u>spicules</u>. Their morphology is so varied that it is used in taxonomy for identification and classification.
There are different kinds of spicules:
- <em>Monoaxonic spicule</em>: needle-shaped, straights or curves
- <em>Tetraxonic spicules:</em> they have four prolongations
- <em>Triaxonic or Hexaxonic spicules</em>
- <em>Poliaxonic spicules </em>
Two terms can be applied to any of these spicules kinds:
- <em>Megaspicules</em>: They are elongated and compose the main architecture of the sponge skeleton
- <em>Microspicules</em>: Variable in shape and size, with ancillary functions
Sponges have few predators thank to the spicule structures and their high toxicity. Many of them are capable of perforating soft tissues and producing urticant substances.
