Why do melting ice caps make Earth warmer?

The correct answer is C. Albedo decreases.

When the albedo is lower, more radiation from the Sun gets absorbed by the planet resulting in rise of temperature. When the snow covered area warms up and melts, the albedo goes down and more sunlight is absorbed in that area and the temperatures increase.

Climax community- most stable community that takes hundreds of years to develop. The types of organisms change due to __?__.
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

competition

Explanation:

An ecological community is a naturally occurring group of native plants, animals and other organisms that are interacting in a unique habitat. Its structure, composition and distribution are determined by environmental factors such as soil type, position in the landscape, altitude, climate and water availability(Department of Agriculture).

A climax community refers to the last stage of ecological succession in which the community remains relatively unchanged unless it is destroyed by events such as fire or human interference.

Competition between species in the same habitat is an important biotic factor in discussing ecological succession and the emergence of climax communities. Competition leads to a drop in the diversity of species in a given ecosystem because the dominant species live on and reproduce while the other species die off.

How many red blood cells does your body make and kill in a seccond?
Andru [333]
 The average red blood cell lives for 120 days.

2. There are 2.5 trillion (give or take) of red blood cells in your body at any moment. To maintain this number, about two and a half million new ones need to be produced every  second by your bone marrow.That's like a new population of the city of Toronto every second.

3. Considering all the tissues and cells in your body, 25 million new cells are being  produced each second.That's a little less than the population of Canada - every second !

4. A red blood cell can circumnavigate your body in under 20 seconds.

5. Nerve Impulses travel at over 400 km/hr (25 mi/hr).

6. A sneeze generates a wind of 166 km/hr (100 mi/hr), and a cough moves out at 100 km/hr(60 mi/hr).

7. Our heart beats around 100,00 times every day.

8. Our blood is on a 60,000-mile journey.
