A. 12.5 m/s.

The average speed is defined as the relationship between the displacement made by a body and the total time it took to perform it.

The formula that will allow you to calculate the average speed is:

v = d/t, where d is the traveled distance and t the time it took to travel the distance.

We hace to convert 4 minutes to second:

(60 s/1 min)*(4 min) = 240 s

So, the average speed is:

v = 3000 m/240 s

v = 12.5 m/s

Lelechka [254]

D. Water

Biotic factors are all living things, and they are derived from organisms. These include: fungi, plants, bacteria, archaea, protists, animals.

Abiotic factors are all nonliving things, and they are not derived from organisms. These include: air, soil, light, water, minerals.

In this case, grass, trees, and algae are all living things since they are derived from organisms.

On the other hand, water is not a living thing since it is not derived from organisms.
