Tema [17]3 years ago
4 0

Rainforests influence the Earth’s climate by absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and giving off oxygen in return. It has been proven that the carbon dioxide given off by the activities of humans is at large for climate change. Because of this, living rainforests play an important role in mitigating climate change.

When rainforests are chopped down for wood or burned, the carbon absorbed by the trees, which is stored in their wood and leaves, is released into the atmosphere. This then negatively affects the climate. Rainforests also affect local weather conditions by creating rainfall and moderating temperatures.

there are multiple chickens and rabbits in a cage there are 72 heads and 200 feet inside of the cage how many chickens are in th
schepotkina [342]
The answer is 44 chickens and 28 rabbits.

We have a system of two equations.
x - the number of rabbits
y - the number of chickens

Both chicken and rabbit have only 1 head, so the first equation is: x + y = 72.
Since rabbits have 4 legs and chickens 2 legs, the second equation is: 4x + 2y = 200.

Now, let's solve the system:
x + y = 72
4x + 2y = 200
___________
y = 72 - x
⇒ 4x + 2 · (72 - x) = 200
4x + 2 · 72 - 2 · x = 200
4x + 144 - 2x = 200
2x + 144 = 200
2x = 200 - 144
2x = 56
⇒ x = 56 ÷ 2 = 28
So, there are 28 rabbits.

Since
y = 72 - x = 72 - 28 = 44,
there are 44 chickens.

2. In polar regions, phytoplankton.
natka813 [3]

Answer:

b. thrive during the summer, when sunlight increases

Explanation:

Phytoplankton production is highly associated with latitude and season. In polar regions, phytoplankton production is reduced to the summer (and eventually spring) season. In consequence, the zooplankton that eats phytoplankton only can survive during the spring and summer seasons. On the other hand, in tropical areas, there exists a nearly constant phytoplankton production all year round.
