Answer:

Salt is an ionic compound. It _____.

dissolves easily in water

has a high boiling point

has a high melting point

conducts electricity when melted

Explanation:

Salt dissolves in water because the ions are ripped apart by the dipoles of water.

Salt has a high melting point and boiling point due to the strong electrostatic forces between sodium cations and chloride anions. These forces require a lot of energy to break.

Salt conducts electricity when melted or dissolved in water because the ions are free to move around carrying a charge.

Where should the origin of the swim bladder be placed on the phylogenetic tree?
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

At the base of Actinopterygii

*This is a unique characteristic of this group.

Explanation:

A peculiar characteristic organ observed in ray-finned fish (as well as in Sarcopterygii, or lobe-finned fish) but not in cartilaginous fish like shark is the swim bladder.

This organ is often described to be a sac containing gas. It helps these set of fish adjust its buoyancy and its position in the water by regulating the concentration of gas present in it.

The swim bladder is formed as a pouch coming off the embryonic digestive tract, and in chondrosteans and holosteans, with a set of teleosts e.g. the eels, it maintains an open pathway to the esophagus. In majority of the bony fish, the swim bladder is totally sealed off, as gas levels in their swim bladder are regulated by producing gas into the bladder via a network of capillaries, the rete mirabile (Latin word for "marvelous net").

The swim bladder is homologous to the lungs of tetrapods. Since they are formed in the same vein. Few fishes that have an open swim bladder employs it as a breathing organ.

Soot could be the main cause of mass extinction after an asteroid impact.
