It will cover up all oxygen from the fire. And sand has no natural flammability because it is simply a crushed up mineral, so it can not make the fire any bigger.

Which best explains the difference between a ball-and-stick model of a chemical compound and a space-filling model?
Nikolay [14]
Scientists use models to show the characteristics of compounds. Of the different models,ball-and-stick model and space-filling model are commonly used but similar. Ball-and- stick model shows the bond between both atom and not the relative size of the atoms. Space-filling model shows the relative size of the atom and not the bond between the atoms. Both are 3-Dimensional and use color spheres within the model.

Answer:hemoglobin that has a high affinity for oxygen

Explanation:

Haemoglobin is the oxygen carrying pigment in blood. It performs this function because of the presence of iron at the center of the haemoglobin which coordinates reversibly with oxygen thereby aiding delivery of oxygen to cells. At high altitudes where air is thinner and the partial pressure of oxygen is lower than sea level, haemoglobin must develop a greater affinity for oxygen in order to carry the scarce oxygen to cells.
