Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is D. Halfway up the peak

Explanation:

Think of potential energy like you are a marble. If a marble is at the peak of the hill, it's potential energy is ENORMOUS because as gravity pulls it downward it will increase in speed. Halfways down the peak is about the same potential energy as the peak, although slightly less. At the end of the climb, we can assume the landscape flattens out. This means there's very little pull to make it change at all. It will continue with the speed gained from the downhill trajectory until something in its environment stops it (such as friction). When a marble is at the bottom of a large hill, the potential energy is low. It takes a lot of force to try and get up the hill, losing lots of energy

I hope this makes sense!

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy = mgh, where m is the mass of the mountain climber, g is the gravitational force and h is the height from the base.

Since m and g are constants, the climber's potential energy will be the lowest when he's at the end of the climb, at the base of the mountain. (B)

A true Coelom develops completely within the mesoderm. It is also referred to as a body cavity passing down the trunk of some organisms which originates through the splitting of the mesoderm during the initial stages of embryonic and later fits inner to it. Organisms that have a Coelom contain complex structures and are found higher in the taxonomic order. i.e. the Coelomates

How sunlight regulates the productivity of algae and the number of catfish in a pool.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

Algae produces food and catfish also needs warm water.

Explanation:

Sunlight regulates the productivity of algae and the number of catfish in a pool because algae produces food in the presence of sunlight during the process of photosynthesis. If algae produces more food, so more food is available for the catfish and as a result the population of catfish increases. If no sunlight occur on the pool the algae is unable to produce food and the population of catfish decreases. Sunlight increases the temperature of water which makes environment suitable for the catfish because catfish needs slightly warm water for its growth. So we can say that sunlight has a great affect on algae and catfish.
