Because technically there is no such thing as cold
all that exists is heat
this is because heat is the rapid movement of particles, made by friction (to understand why you must delve into physics and some chemistry)
so, when you feel cold, it's really the absence of heat
so instead of "keeping the cold out", which makes no sense at all scientifically, insulation keeps the heat in.

as a side note
the feeling of cold is produced when you come in contact with an object (yes, air counts) that has less heat, or energy, than you do, You feel cold because heat (energy) from your body is being transferred to the environment. This ABSENCE OF HEAT in your body is why you feel cold

What makes water “neutral “ (pH of 7)

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Even in pure water ions tend to form due to random processes (producing some H+ and OH- ions). The amount of H+ that is made in pure water is about equal to a pH of 7. That's why 7 is neutral. ... In pure water near room temperature, the concentration of H+ is about 10-7 moles/liter, which gives a pH of 7.

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

A source from which organisms generally take elements is called exchange pool (option B).

Explanation:

Options for this question are:

Food web.
Exchange pool.
Reservoir.
Biotic community.

The term exchange pool is related to the biogeochemical cycles that exist in nature, referring to the source from which elements present in the environment become part of living organisms.

Exchange pools are the biotic components -like animals and plants- of an ecosystem, which determine the passage of elements between living beings. An element can remain as a reservoir (abiotic) in the soil, and then be incorporated into the exchange pool.
