1. Ur graph should have 2 vertical lines || , of equal height at mass 13 and 15.
 
2. One, because you have the mass, which in this case is 13 and the other 15, which has the same height. So it must be the isotope. By definition, an isotope has the same number of protons, but different number of neutrons.
 
3. to solve for fractional abundance, Let x = fraction of element: "I"-13 then fraction of "I"-15 must be 1-x so you have: 13x + (15<span>)(1-x) = 13 solve for x.</span>

How might an increasing population of robins positively and negatively affect a community?
Oliga [24]

All populations of living things are interrelated. When one population of animals, plants, or insects increase or decrease, other populations of living things are also affected. For example, when shrubs and brushy areas are removed from an ecosystem, the rabbit population will likely go down. The reduced rabbit population will lower predator populations that use rabbits as a food source.

In another example, let's assume all the dead hollow trees are removed from a forest ecosystem. Cavity nesting animals such as bluebirds, nuthatch, wrens, screech owls, squirrels and woodpeckers have very little, if any, shelter available. The number of animals of this type would be reduced. Insect populations could increase because of fewer insect eating birds and trees and other plants could be negatively affected. The whole ecosystem is affected.

The amount of suitable habitat for a species of wildlife will determine the number of animals that can survive in the area. Human activity has the greatest impact on the amount and quality of wildlife habitat in Illinois. Wildlife habitat can be destroyed or its quality diminished as a result of urban sprawl, agricultural practices, pollution, sedimentation, or habitat fragmentation.

People can also have a positive impact on wildlife populations through improvement and protection of habitat or ecosystems. The planting of trees and shrubs, as well as wildlife food plots, in the appropriate locations is one way landowners can improve wildlife habitat. People can protect ponds, streams, rivers and wetlands from sedimentation by reducing soil erosion on lands surrounding these aquatic ecosystems. Nesting boxes placed in ecosystems that lack dead, hollow trees will enhance the habitat for cavity nesting animals. There are many things people can do to improve habitat for wildlife.

There are a number of natural resource management agencies in Illinois that can help people enhance and protect wildlife habitat. Listed below are a few of the public agencies which can provide ecosystem management expertise to people in Illinois.

How is impure copper refined by electrolysis
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

By giving electricity to copper compound solution.

Explanation:

Electrolysis is one of the major way of refined copper. The copper containing solution has two electrodes.i) positive electrodes called anode. ii) negative electrodes called cathode. When electricity is pass into the copper containing solution electrolysis process is starts and impure copper is formed in anode and pure copper is formed in cathode.

So, We can get pure copper in cathode through electrolysis.
