fgiga [73]

Answer:

Endangered

Explanation:

Endangered species are organisms that are at risk of extinction if deliberate efforts are not made to conserve them due to a rapid decrease in their population.

<em>Hence, if a marine biologist writes an article about saving whales and labels them as </em><em>endangered species</em><em>, all efforts should be geared towards saving the animals lest they go extinct and leave a vacuum in the functioning of the ecosystem.  Every species have the critical roles they play in the functioning of the ecosystem and the extinction of any particular species represents a loss that might not be replaceable. </em>

Both coal and diamonds are forms of elemental carbon. Coal is brittle while diamonds are considered to be the hardest Of all sub
Art [367]

arbon, as with many elements, can arrange its atoms into several different geometries, or "allotropes." In pure diamond, every carbon atom is covalently bonded to exactly 4 other carbon atoms in a very specific and energetically favorable geometry. The diamond cannot be broken or scratched unless many covalent bonds are broken, which is difficult to do. In another common allotrope, graphite, every carbon atom is covalently bonded to only 3 other carbon atoms, and the atoms are arranged in sheets that are not covalently bonded to each other. The sheets can be broken apart easily, ultimately meaning that graphite can be easily scratched. Coal is composed of particles of different allotropes of carbon, and some "amorphous carbon," which has no defined geometry in its atomic structure. Without a continuous network of covalent bonds, coal is easily scratched (i.e. it is not hard).
