<u>Answer:</u> The average speed while walking is 12 km/hr.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Average speed is defined as the ratio of total distance traveled to the total time taken.

To calculate the average speed while walking, we use the equation:

\text{Average speed}=\frac{\text{Total distance traveled}}{\text{Total time taken}}

We are given:

Distance from school to home = 5 km

Time taken = 25 mins  = 0.417 hr   (Conversion factor: 1 min = 60 sec)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Average speed while walking}=\frac{5km}{0.417hr}=12km/hr

Hence, the average speed while walking is 12 km/hr.

If it takes ten minutes to travel 5 km, then it'll take 60 minutes to travel thirty, making your biking speed 30 kilometers per hour. 25 minutes divided by ten is 2.5. multiply 5 by 2.5 to get 12.5, your average walking speed.

Stels [109]

Answer:

Photosynthesis

Explanation:

Studies about the time period of oxygen accumulation suggests that free oxygen was first produced by prokaryotic and then later by eukaryotic organisms in the ocean. These organisms carried out photosynthesis more efficiently, producing oxygen as a waste product.

The organism mainly responsible for this is known as cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae. These microbes conduct photosynthesis: using sunshine, water and carbon dioxide to produce carbohydrates and, oxygen.
