Which sequence represents the relationship between pressure and volume of an ideal gas as explained by the kinetic-molecular the
Svetlanka [38]
<h2>Answer : Option C) Smaller volume - crowded particles - more collisions - high pressure</h2><h3>Explanation : </h3>

The kinetic molecular theory of gases explains that if there is small volume of gas there will be more crowding of the gas molecules inside the container. The crowded gas molecules will collide with each other and also with the walls of container as a result, exchange of energies will take place. Which will increase the pressure inside the container, and will raise the pressure than the initial pressure.

2. What would be the outcome of a unicellular organism that cannot maintain homeostasis? (1 point)
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

Option A = it dies

Explanation:

Homeostasis:

It is the ability of organisms to maintain the equilibrium in its internal environment in order to deal with external environmental changes.

If the unicellular organism cannot maintain the homeostasis it would die.

Importance of homeostasis:

It is constant chemical and physical condition of cell. The unicellular organisms in maintained homeostasis condition can grow and reproduce. They respond to the environment and transfer energy. It is the primary objective of unicellular organism other wise they would not survive.

It is very important for them because they totally rely on it and can perform the necessary functions of life.

While in case of multi cellular organisms all cells communicate with each other to maintain the homeostasis.
