bearhunter [10]

Answer: a. algal bloom

Explanation:

The availability of food in the systems can tell the types and numbers of organisms in the systems by checking which types of organisms eat the food available as well as the quantity available to see the number of organisms.

Temperature and dissolved oxygen levels also play a huge part in determining the feasibility of organisms staying in the system. The availability of nutrients goes hand in hand with the availability of food in determining the organisms present.

Algal bloom is not a factor in determining the types and numbers of organisms found in a system because the conditions that caused this bloom might not be suitable for other organisms as well.

Question 5 1 pts Which statement about science an religion is NOT true? Science is limited to the natural world, whereas many re
mash [69]

Answer:

The best answer to the question: Which statement about science and religion is NOT true? Would be: No scientists are religious.

Explanation:

Basically that would be the one WRONG statement because it would require for us to know that in truth all scientists are not religious, which is not possible. This statement first arises from the conclusion that science and religion are two completely incompatible areas, and therefore, any person who belongs to one cannot belong to the other. Although it is true that in many ways it seems as if science and religion do not coincide, it must be remembered that it was religious belief, and the desire to explain why the world worked the way it did, what inspired first philosophers like Aristotle, Plato, Saint Augustine, to name a few, to observe and investigate the natural world around them. Also, historically speaking, there have been many men who were religious and who became vital to the development of scientific tenets and fields of study. For all these reasons, the statement that No scientis are religious, is false.

How is the rate of natural<br> increase determined?
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

To calculate the RNI, demographers subtract the death rate (number of deaths per 1,000 people/year) from the birth rate (number of birth per 1,000 people/year) and convert the answer to a percentage.

Equation for Rate of Natural Increase (RNI):

(BirthRate/1,000) – (DeathRate/1000) = (BR-DR)/1000 = RNI %

Hope it helps!
