Answer:

Salinity is the <em><u>salt concentration</u></em> in water. Oceans salinity and temperature affect density of water, Higher the salinity denser the water and Lower the temperature denser the water.

Explanation:

As we go down in the ocean , temperature goes down and denser the water.

Less dense water will be on top and higher the density will be on bottom. Warmer water will be on top.

Salinity <em> increased</em> in ocean on evaporation of sea water and formation of ice in water. Weathering of rocks , formation of soil also add minerals and salt in ocean.

Melting of snow, ice in sea, addition of river freshwater and precipitation of rain <em>decrease </em>the salinity of ocean.

Xelga [282]

Answer:

I agree and disagree with his statement.

Explanation:

We all know that the blood type AB is the universal recipient, so we know that this bloodtype can recieve any kind of blood. AB-type blood doesn't fight off anything because it has all of the antibodies needed. We also know that type O is the universal donor, meaning that this blood can be donated to anyone. This bloodtype doesn't have antibodies, so nothing will go wrong. However, for the other bloodtypes, yes, things have to be matched carefully. Type B blood can't be given type A blood, and so on. Another thing you have to think about is the Rh factor, which is the +/- after blood types. Rh+ bloodtypes can recieve both Rh+ and Rh- bloodtypes, but Rh- bloodtypes can only recieve Rh- bloodtypes. There are also graphic tables that will help answer this question if you're a visual learner!

I hope this helps, sorry it was a bit late!

Research studies suggest that a high-fiber diet protects against _____.
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Research studies suggest that a high-fiber diet protects against colon cancer. This is because high fibrous food increases the bulk in the digestive tract to pass easily through the intestinal tract to shorten the time of passage. This short time of passage of food reduces the interaction of carcinogens present in the food with the intestinal tract. The fibers are broken down in butyrate by the bacteria present in the lower intestine. This butyrate inhibits the growth of tumors of colon and rectum,
