How can an abiotic factor affect a biotic factor

1 answer:

4 0

Biotic and abiotic factors are the environmental conditions that the organisms have to face to live in a specified environment.

-Abiotic factors-
Abiotic factors are the physical and chemical conditions of an environment. For example : heat, salinity, pressure, light, wind, pH ...

-Biotic factors-
Biotic factors are all the biological conditions of an environment for a specie/taxa. It can include prey and predator abundance, available food amount, available space, intra and interspecific competition...

The development of organims is under the control of abiotic factors. Some are adapted to heat, cold etc ... The abiotic factors will define which organisms are able or not to live in a specified place.

The living organisms will constitute the biotic factors, which define if and how can an organism live in a specified environment.
So, the abiotic factors are controling the biotic factors of an environment.

Hope it helps you !

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

Suppose they take t minutes to meet each other.

Distance covered by first friend in t minutes, = 0.2 *t=0.2∗t

Distance covered by second friend in t minutes , =0.15 *t=0.15∗t

Total distance is given as 7, so

0.2 t + 0.15 t = 70.2t+0.15t=7

0.35 t = 70.35t=7

t = 20t=20

means after 20minutes they will meet.

SO. the average speed is 10m: Answer

Positive Deviation from Raoult's Law occurs when the vapour pressure of component is greater than what is expected in Raoult's L

8090 [49]

Answer:

All of the above.

Explanation:

In positive deviation from Raoult's Law occur when the vapour pressure of components is greater than what is expected value in Raoult's law.

When a solution is non ideal then it shows positive or negative deviation.

Let two solutions A and B to form non- ideal solutions.let the vapour pressure of component A is $P_A$ and vapour pressure of component B is $P_B$ .

$P^0_A$ = Vapour pressure of component A in pure form

$P^0_B$ = Vapour pressure of component B in pure form

$x_A$ =Mole fraction of component A

$x_B=$ =Mole fraction of component B

The interaction between A- B is less than the interaction A- A and B-B interaction.Therefore, the escaping tendency of liquid molecules in mixture is greater than the escaping tendency in pure form.Hence, the vapour pressure of a mixture is greater than the initial value of vapour pressure.

$P_A >P^0_A\cdot x_A$ , $P_B>P^0_B\cdot x_B$
