a) El Niño is defined as an abnormal weather pattern caused by the warming of the Pacific Ocean near the equator, off the coast of South America. The sun warms the water near the equator, which can make more clouds and, therefore, more rain. It has detrimental effects on biodiversity leading to its large-scale loss by
warmer sea temperatures leading to plankton and fish kills in coastal waters
lower sea levels leading to exposure of underwater coral reefs, causing their loss.
Explanation:
In physics, a force is any interaction that, when unopposed, will change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity.
Formula
Newton's Second Law
F = m * a
F = force
m = mass of an object
a = acceleration
Explanation:
The increase in the body temperature of pronghorn, the fastest North American animal, results from the chemical energy of the pronghorn converting into kinetic energy with efficiency less than 100%. The remaining energy is converted into heat energy. Thus, raising the temperature of pronghorn.
Due to the chemical energy it gains both kinetic and heat energy.
Answer:
conductor
Explanation:
A "conductor" is a material that allows the charges to pass freely from one body to the other. This causes a movement among the electrons and this means that<em> the charge will be passed entirely to the object receiving it.</em> This is also called <em>"conductive material."</em>
Examples of conductors are: <em>copper, aluminum, gold, silver, seawater, etc.</em>
The opposite of conductors are called "insulators." These do not allow the free movement of charges from one object to the other.
Examples of insulators: <em>plastic, rubber, paper, glass, wool, dry air, etc.</em>
