Answer:

Biotic, Abiotic

Step-by-step explanation:

Interconnected pathways through which water is recycled through the biotic and abiotic components of the biosphere.

The water cycle is driven by the Sun’s energy. The sun warms the ocean surface and other surface water, causing liquid water to evaporate and ice to sublime—turn directly from a solid to a gas. These sun-driven processes move water into the atmosphere in the form of water vapor.

Over time, water vapor in the atmosphere condenses into clouds and eventually falls as precipitation, rain or snow. When precipitation reaches Earth's surface, it has a few options: it may evaporate again, flow over the surface, or percolate—sink down—into the ground.

In land-based, or terrestrial, ecosystems in their natural state, rain usually hits the leaves and other surfaces of plants before it reaches the soil. Some water evaporates quickly from the surfaces of the plants. The water that's left reaches the soil and, in most cases, will begin to move down into it.

In general, water moves along the surface as runoff only when the soil is saturated with water, when rain is falling very hard, or when the surface can't absorb much water. A non-absorbent surface could be a rock in a natural ecosystem or asphalt or cement in an urban or suburban ecosystem.

Water evaporates to form the ocean surface and forms clouds by condensation. Water in clouds may fall as precipitation over either the land or the sea. Clouds formed over the sea may move over the land. When rain falls over the land, it may flow along the surface, infiltrate the soil—move into it from above ground—and percolate through the soil, moving downward to become groundwater. Groundwater in upper levels may flow into rivers, lakes, or oceans. Water near the soil surface may be taken up by plants and move out of their bodies through transpiration from the leaves. Snowmelt runoff and sublimation of snow and ice are other processes that contribute to the water cycle.

Water in the upper levels of the soil can be taken up by plant roots. Plants use some of the water for their own metabolism, and water that's in plant tissues can find its way into animals’ bodies when the plants get eaten. However, most of the water that enters a plant's body will be lost back to the atmosphere in a process called transpiration.

A and B are complementary angles. If A = (x – 23)° and m
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

∠ B = 85°

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles sum to 90° , then

x - 23 + 2x + 29 = 90 , that is

3x + 6 = 90 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

3x = 84 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 28

Then

∠ B = 2x + 29 = 2(28) + 29 = 56 + 29 = 85°

Can anybody tell me how to solve this
Lyrx [107]
The answer to your question is:  Yes, someone undoubtedly can.

Although you haven't asked to be told or shown how to solve it, I'm here
already, so I may as well stick around and go through it with you.


The sheet is telling you to find the solutions to two equations, AND THEN
DO SOMETHING WITH THE TWO SOLUTIONS.  But you've cut off the
instructions in the pictures, so all we have are the two equations, and
you'll have to figure out what to do with their solutions.

<u>First equation:</u>
                                   (2/5) x - 6 = -2
Add 6 to each side:
                                   (2/5) x = 4
Multiply each side by 5:
                                   2x = 20
Divide each side by 2 :
                                     <u>x = 10</u>

<u>Second equation:</u>
                                   -3y + 1/4 = 13/4
Subtract 1/4 from each side:
                                   -3y = 12/4
Multiply each side by 4 :
                                -12 y = 12
Divide each side by -12 :
                                      <u> y = -1</u>
