Coral reefs support more species per unit area than any other marine

Chemistry
1 answer:
irinina [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

B. Their productive organisms play a major role in nutrient recycling.

Explanation:

Coral reefs contain photosynthetic algae that help coral reefs in processing nutrients and contribute in the nutrient cycle.

The process of photosynthesis in corals leads to carbon fixing in which corals transform, carbon dioxide, into organic carbon.  carbon fixing property allows corals to become primary producers.

Dissolve organic matter produced by corals is consumed by several organisms such as crabs, worms, fish, and snails.

Hence, coral reefs maintain the flow of energy and nutrient cycle in the biosphere and the correct option is B.

Which group or groups of atoms are the only atoms with f orbitals A. All atoms heavier than barium B. All atoms heavier than kry
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

All atoms heavier than barium

Explanation:

In the periodic table, elements are divided into blocks. We have the;

s- block elements

p- block elements

d- block elements

f- block elements

However, immediately after Barium, we now encounter elements that have f-orbitals. Barium possesses a fully filled d-orbital. Hence after it, we see elements with 4f and 5f orbitals called the Lanthanides and actinides. The elements following the lanthanide and actinide series possess completely filled f-orbitals as inner orbitals.

Hence elements heavier than barium all possess f-orbitals.

Bingel [31]

The two elements that have the same properties as sodium are potassium  and rubidium .

<h3>What is periodic table?</h3>

The periodic table is an arrangement of the elements in order of increasing atomic number.

From the list, the two elements that have the same properties as sodium are potassium  and rubidium .

Proton has an atomic number of 20 and a mass number of 40. The number of electrons is the same as the number of protons. Given that the atomic number is the number of protons present, we have 20 electrons and 20 protons.

Number of neutrons = Mass number  - Number of protons

= 40 - 20 = 20 neutrons
