Yes. In a desert, which mostly is sand, insects, and animals, there are mostly carnivores. Carnivores are animals that eat meat. there is little vegetation in deserts because of the dry soil and lack of rain.

No, thee must be a balance between the two. Too many carnivores mean the herbivores will be hunted way r quickly and will die off, however way to many herbivores means the grass and plant supply will run out. If the two aren't balanced properly the ecosystem will be out of balance.

When crude oil is distilled, it is separated into categories. What are those categories characterized by?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Differences in their boiling points

Explanation:

When crude oil is distilled and separated into categories, the categories are characterized by the differences in their boiling points.

At different boiling points, each of the fraction will separate out.

  • Crude oil is made up of different fractions of hydrocarbons.
  • As the chain length of the hydrocarbon increases, the volatility reduces and boiling point increases.
  • Components with short carbon lengths rises out from the column first and are cooled and extracted.
  • The categories are thereby, classified based on differences in their boiling points.

What is the role of a lipid molecule, which atoms make up most lipids, how does the lipids structure relate to its function.
Alisiya [41]

Answer and explanation;

-All lipids contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Some of them also contain nitrogen and phosphorus. The four main classes of lipids are fats, waxes, sterols, and phospholipids. Fats are triglycerides.

-The functions of lipids include storing energy, signaling, and acting as structural components of cell membranes.

-Lipids are water-insoluble (hydrophobic), and this property is put to great use in the organisation of cells and tissues.

For example; phospholipids are a class of lipids that is amphipathic; that is it contains fatty acid tails that are hydrophobic, and a phosphate head that is hydrophilic. This means the phosphate group will orientate itself towards water and away from the rest of the molecule, and also gives rise to the special properties that allow phospholipids to be used to form membranes.
