The heat from the bonfire is transferred to the student's hands mainly, but not exclusively, through the process of RADIATION.


There are three mechanisms or processes of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and ratiation.


Conduction is carreid out by contact; it requires that the two objects are touching each other. This is not the case.


Convection is the heat transferred by the movement of the fluids (liquids ang gases). In some extent this happens in this case, but it is not the dominant effect becasue air is not a very good conductor. Specially if there is not much air movement (wind).



Thermal radiation is carried out by electromagnetic waves. When there is a source of intense heat, like the fire, the heat is propagated by radiation.


Then really, the heat from the bonfire gets to the student's hands by convection and radiation, but as fire is very intense (its temperature is very high), and as long as the air is calmed, the dominant process is radiation.  If there is wind, convection starts to be important.

Use the following graph of two theoretical populations (species A and B) to answer the following questions:
avanturin [10]
A) This is predator-prey relationship.

B) Species A is prey and species B is predator.
- If prey population decreases in number, the predator population will also decrease because there is not enough food for predators to survive and vice versa.

- If predator population decreases, the prey population will increase because less prey will be eaten by predators and vice versa.


C) Let population A be Zebras, and population B Lions.

From the graph, at the beginning the there is increase in Lions, as well as in smaller rate in Zebras. At one point, the population of Lions begins to decrease, so they will eat less Zebras. This will allow Zebras to increase population. With more Zebras on the menu, more Lions will eat and increase their chance to survive. This leads to decrease in Zebra population. But again, with less Zebras, the Lion population must decrease allowing Zebra population to increase, and so on.
