Waters high heat capacity protects organisms in the ocean from what?

Biology
1 answer:
Yuliya22 [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Heat fluctuations

Explanation:

Water's high heat capacity means that it requires a lot of energy to raise the temperature of a unit volume of water by one degree. It also requires to lose this same amount of energy to lower its temperatures by one degree.

This means that as land temperatures fluctuate a lot  from day to night depending on the rate of sunlight hitting the earth, the waters of the oceans remain more or less within very a small range of temperatures. This protects the organism of the oceans from high heat fluctuations that may cause heat shock.

Are humans a dead end host for streptococcus pneumonia? If yes please explain why. Thank you!
zlopas [31]

Answer:

No, because Pneumonia can be transferred from one person to another.

Explanation:

Because humans are the only natural host for S. pneumoniae, our data suggest that the CbpA-mediated recruitment of complement FH may contribute to host tropism of this pathogen. A person can spread the germs that cause pneumonia when he or she coughs and expels the bacterial or viral infections that caused the disease. The droplets containing the virus or bacteria can land on a common surface, such as a table, telephone, or computer. Anyone can get pneumococcal disease, it occurs more frequently in infants, young children, the elderly or in people with serious medical conditions such as chronic lung, heart or kidney disease. Others at risk include alcoholics, diabetics, people with weakened immune systems and those without a spleen.

What is the source of carbon for the organisms of food chains?
murzikaleks [220]

The Sun is the major source of energy for organisms and the ecosystems of which they are a part. Producers such as plants, algae, and cyanobacteria use the energy from sunlight to make organic matter from carbon dioxide and water. This establishes the beginning of energy flow through almost all food webs.
