Which of the following is an abiotic factor in the ecosystem?

Biology
1 answer:
Naily [24]3 years ago
7 0

---- *Well, since there is really no specific ecosystem that was asked about in the question, I will just list some common and basic abiotic factors found throughout most ecosystems (maybe you can match this with the ecosystem you are talking about).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Abiotic factors: nonliving parts of an ecosystem

Some abiotic factors include: ROCKS, SOIL, AIR, SUN, WATER, ETC.

Question 1 (3 points)
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

1. Electrons

2. thru the circuit from the negative power terminal to the positive power terminal

3. Current

4. Voltage

5. resistance

6. Amps

7. Volts

8. Ohms

9. The voltage is decreased by the electrical resistance.

10. It doesn't work. The electricity can't go backwards thru an LED.

11. The current will decrease.

12. 0.75 amps

13. The current increase

14. an inverse relationship

Explanation:

1. Electrons are what move through a circuit. These electrons are called mobile electrons. Unlike protons and neutrons, they are not confined in the nucleus and are free to move about.

2. Electrons tend to move towards the positive. When an electron moves to a stable atom,the atom would have too much electrons, making it negatively charged. This then would cause a chain reaction of passing on electrons to keep stable.

10.

3 to 8:

Collectively, the flow of electric current is dependent on four things: Voltage, current, resistance, and power.

Voltage is the like the driving force of current. It is the measure of the potential energy or electric potential difference between two points. The unit of voltage is volts, named after Alessandro Volta. You can think of volts as electrical pressure. The higher the voltage, the higher the pressure on the flow of charge.

Current is the "flow" of electrons. It could have another meaning though, in electronics, we refer to current as the volume of the flow of electrons. Current is measured in AMPERES or amps named after Andre M. Ampere. Current is a measure of rate, or the rate of the amount of electrons that flow through a certain point in a circuit, at a given time.

Resistance on the other hand is the opposing force. As electrons move along a circuit, there is bound to be friction. This friction opposes the movement of the electrons, which we call resistance. Resistance uses the unit ohms or the symbol Ω.

These three are all related. The flow of current is affected by how much voltage there is available or pressure available for the movement of the electrons, and at the same time, it is also affected to how much resistance there is in the circuit. And that is where Ohm's Law comes in.

9 and 11-14:

Ohm's Law describes the relationship between current, voltage and resistance. It can be summarized into this formula:

V = IR \rightarrow\; I=\dfrac{V}{R}\rightarrow\;R=\dfrac{V}{I}

Where:

V = voltage

I = Current

R = Resistance

9. When electricity is met with an electrical component, the resistance through that part of the circuit increases. However, the resistance does not change the potential difference between the two points, but rather, it changes the amount of current that flows through. This means that it does not affect the voltage.

11. But on the other hand, for this scenario, the resistance was increased from 10 Ohms to 15 Ohms. Current and resistance have an indirect relationship. This means that as one goes up, the other goes down. As the resistance increases, the less current is able to flow through and thus the current will decrease.

12. Using Ohm's Law we can solve this:

I = \dfrac{V}{R}

The following is our given:

V = 9 V

R = 12 Ω

We plug that in our formula:

I = \dfrac{V}{R}\\\\I = \dfrac{9}{12} = \dfrac{3}{4} = 0.75A

13. As mentioned earlier, current and resistance have an indirect relationship. So when you have this scenario where the resistance  chages from 20 Ω to 12Ω, you see that there is a decrease in resistance. This means that more current can flow through this circuit. So this means that the current increases.

14. was already explained above.

Hope this helps even just a little bit! Good Luck!

Which answer best defines what the Lotka-Volterra predator-prey model mathematically describes?-The competition among many preda
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

The simultaneous effect of a predator population on a prey population and a prey population on a predator population over time.

Explanation:  

The mathematical models of Lotka-Volterra equations explain the existing interaction between species in which prey and predator influence and affect each other. The model follows a few assumptions,    

  • The ecosystem is isolated and closed. There is no migration.
  • The whole individuals are reproductively equivalent.
  • In the absence of the predator, prey shows an exponential growth rate. The prey is in the ideal environment.  
  • When there is no prey, the predator population decreases exponentially because of the lack of food. The predator environment is ideal, but it is limited by prey density.  
  • The predation rate is proportional to the encounters rate, which also depends on density.  
  • The predators affect the prey populations, inducing its decrease proportionally to the number of prey and predators present.  
  • The prey population also influences the predator population proportionally to the number of encounters between the two species.  

In these equations, the variable D is the number of predators, and P the number of prey items.

The parameters are always constant:  

• r1: prey growth rate.  

• a1: predator hunting success.  

• r2: predator growth rate.  

• a2: the success of the predator in hunting and feeding.

In nature, many factors affect interactions, such as dense-dependent factors and dense-independent factors. Also, in reality, there are stochastic factors. Stochasticity refers to the variability in the system involving those factors that are affecting or influencing population growth. Stochasticity might be related to good years and bad years for population growth.

In real situations, the compliance of the whole assumption does not occur. The previously mentioned constants might vary, constantly changing the interaction between the predator and the prey. These parameters change in different degrees, resulting in varying circumstances for both species.
