In what ways would organisms living in very deep water need to be specialized?

Physics

Nady [450]3 years ago

Organisms living in great depths of water bodies like oceans and lakes need to be adapted for two (2) things especially; high water pressure and vision in darkness

The water column above from deep in the water can cause lots of hydrostatic pressure on the organisms’ cells. Also the fact that light cannot penetrate to great depth of water due to diffusion means the organisms must live in darkness.

Explanation:

It has been shown that cells from Piezophile bacteria have a high percentage of fatty acids in their membranes to prevent the cells from compacting solid from the high pressure.

Most of the organisms are also detritivores and use chemosynthesis for the autotrophs because light cannot reach these depths and hence photosynthesis is not possible.  Organisms with eye vision are adapted to high wavelength light that can at least reach greater depths before diffusing. Nonetheless natural selection would favour use of sight for most organisms in this benthic region.

What happens as a result of the pulses passing by each other?
nadezda [96]

Answer:

After pulses pass through each other, each pulse continues along its original direction of travel, and their original amplitudes remain unchanged.

Explanation:

Constructive interference takes place when two pulses meet each other to create a larger pulse.

A balloon with a charge of 6.0 μC is held a distance of 0.80 m from a second balloon having the same charge. Calculate the magni
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:0.506 N

Explanation:

Given

Charge on first balloon q_1=6\ \mu C

Charge on second balloon is q_2=6\ \mu C

Distance between them r=0.8\ m

Electrostatic Repulsive force is given by

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

Where K is constant

F=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 6\times 10^{-6}\times 6\times 10^{-6}}{(0.8)^2}

F=\dfrac{324\times 10^{-3}}{0.64}

F=0.506\ N

What is the maximum number of atoms that can be bonded in an ionic bond
Dima020 [189]

A maximum of four bonds can be used between two atoms.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Ionic bond is one of the strongest bond used in chemical reaction where the valence electrons are bonded and shared between the atoms. Sometimes four covalent bonds between two atoms might make them unstable as the bonds are formed in their outermost shell to make them to form or complete a total of 8 in their shell. For example carbon has 3 as maximum.

Archerfish are tropical fish that hunt by shooting drops of water from their mouths at insects above the water’s surface to knoc
sesenic [268]

Answer:

(b) 0.012 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

mass (m₁) of the drop of water = 0.30 g = 3.0 × 10⁻⁴ kg

mass (M₂) of the fish = 65 g =  65 × 10⁻³ kg

speed (v₁) of the water = 2.5 m/s

speed (v₂) of the archerfish = ??

By conservation of momentum

m₁v₁ - M₂v₂ = 0

m₁v₁  = M₂v₂

v₂ = m₁v₁ / M₂

v₂ =  ( 3.0 × 10⁻⁴ × 2.5 ) /  65 × 10⁻³

v₂ = 0.0115 m/s

v₂ ≅ 0.012 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the archerfish immediately after it expels the drop of water 0.012 m/s.
