1) How does the oxpecker benefit?
Bezzdna [24]

Explanation:

1)

Oxpeckers are a type of small bird that land on zebras and eat ticks and other parasites that live on the zebra's skin. The oxpeckers get food and the zebras get pest control. ... Tapeworms get food by eating the host's partly digested food, depriving the host of nutrients.

2)i. Fast Speed. Basically, we can process data that is stored in HDFS at lightning-fast speed with traditional SQL knowledge, by using Impala.

ii. No need to Move Data. ...

iii. Easy Access. ...

iv. Short Procedure. ...

v. File Format. ...

vi. Big Data. ...

vii. Relational model. ...

viii. Languages.

3) A parasite is an organism that lives on or in a host organism and gets its food from or at the expense of its host. There are three main classes of parasites that can cause disease in humans: protozoa, helminths, and ectoparasites.

In the Internet, a hostname is a domain name assigned to a host computer. ... For example, en.wikipedia.org consists of a local hostname (en) and the domain name wikipedia.org. This kind of hostname is translated into an IP address via the local hosts file, or the Domain Name System (DNS) resolver.

4) Usually, although parasites harm their hosts, it is in the parasite's best interest not to kill the host, because it relies on the host's body and body functions, such as digestion or blood circulation, to live. Some parasitic animals attack plants.

5)The pollen sticks to the hummingbird and as the hummingbird goes to another cardinal flower for food the pollen is spread. This would qualify as a mutual relationship because both of the organisms benefit from the relationship. ... These two organisms have a relationship that is known as mutualism.

6)According to Campbell, moose populations are highest in areas 40 years after a major wildfire. But habitat loss is not the only probable cause of moose decline. Tiny ticks also could be a big problem. ... Without deep snow, then predators like wolves and mountain lions have an advantage over moose.”

Deforestation Led to Decline

The reasons why wolves have seen their population decimated mainly due to the diminishing forests in North America, where many of the wolves are found. Wolves were able to live in and survive in such an environment.

Cu2 -> Cu2+ is it getting oxidized?
KIM [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻  →  Cu   ( copper gets reduced )

Cu  → Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ (  copper gets oxidized )

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

Consider the following reactions.

4KI + 2CuCl₂  →   2CuI  + I₂  + 4KCl

the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced.

CO + H₂O   →  CO₂ + H₂

the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant  side and on product side it becomes  +4 so carbon get oxidized.

Na₂CO₃ + H₃PO₄  →  Na₂HPO₄ + CO₂ + H₂O

The oxidation state of carbon on reactant side is +4. while on product side is  also +4 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

H₂S + 2NaOH → Na₂S + 2H₂O

The oxidation sate of sulfur is -2 on reactant side and in product side it is also -2 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

The ph of body fluids must remain fairly constant for the body to maintain homeostasis.
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The answer is True

Explanation:

The Ph of bady fluids have different ranges but it should be nearly constant to maintain the health of the human, The PH of the human blood is from 7.35 to 7.45 and the other blood fluids have different ranges . The PH shouldn't drop below 6.9 because it is so dangerous for human health and result coma. if there is high value of PH this indicates high numbers of OH- and low value of PH  this indicates high numbers of H+

each organ has a certain PH value to do its function very well ,there is an organ needs acidic environment to work well and other organ needs an alkaline environment to do its work.
