lewife increase greatly?
Question 1 options:


1.The smelt will eat the alewife.


2.The salmon will starve.


3.The smelt and alewife may out-compete the native fish by consuming all of the zooplankton.


4.Nothing should happen to this ecosystem if the populations of smelt and alewife increase greatly.

The correct answer is 3- <span>The smelt and alewife may out-compete the native fish by consuming all of the zooplankton.

The diagram tells us that zooplankton is eaten by smelts and alewifes. If these two species increase in number, less of the zooplankton will be left for plankton-eating fish, which is a native type of fish, to eat.
</span>
<span> smelt and alewife eat most of the existing plankton so, they are out-competing the native fish.</span>

A 6,000 kg train car is moving to the right at 10 m/s and connects to a 4,000-kg train car that wasn't moving. What is the veloc
SIZIF [17.4K]

6 m/s

This type of collision is a <u>Inelastic collision </u>

Explanation:

We begin by finding the momentum of the initial train car;

Remember that momentum is given by the formulae mass (kg) * velocity (m/s)

Therefore;

Momentum = 6000 * 10

= 60,000 kg⋅m/s

The other car has zero momentum because;

4000 * 0

= 0

When the two train cars collide, the total momentum will be;

60,000 + 0 = 60,000

Therefore to find the velocity, well use the same formulae;

p = mv  whereby;

p – momentum

m – mass

v – velocity

60,000 = (6000 + 4000) * v

v = 60,000 / 10,000

v = 6

= 6 m/s

This is an elastic collision because we are assuming that no energy is lost in the collision. Most collisions, however, are not elastic but rather inelastic. In inelastic collision some of the kinetic energy is lost to the environment in some other form of energy such as heat energy.

What are three meathods of CO2 transport in the blood?
alekssr [168]
The three methods of carbon dioxide transport in the blood are dissolution in blood plasma, binding to hemoglobin, and carried in the form of bicarbonate. About 7% of the carbon dioxide is dissolved in the blood plasma. The majority of the remaining 93% is carried as part of the bicarbonate buffer system while the rest binds to hemoglobin.
