Answer: C). A tsunami would decrease abundance by causing physical damage to the organisms and their ecosystems.
An intertidal zone is also known as littoral zone. It is the region which is covers the foreshore and seabed. This region is exposed to the affects of tides. This region is highly vulnerable to tsunamis. The tsunami will disturb the habitat of organisms living in intertidal zone. Therefore, will result in decrease in abundance of aquatic organisms.
Answer:
It depends on the lens of the Anthony´s microscope, but It is likely that he saw artifacts
Explanation:
An optical microscope contains lenses of focal lenght that enable to see different structures. In this case, it is likely that Antony saw artifacts since living cells are not easy to focus with the optical microscope, it requires operator experience
Half life formula
The number of unstable nuclei remaining after time t can be determined according to this equation:
N(t) = N(0) * 0.5^(t/T)
where:
N(t) is the remaining quantity of a substance after time t has elapsed.
N(0) is the initial quantity of this substance.
T is the half-life.
It is also possible to determine the remaining quantity of a substance using a few other parameters:
N(t) = N(0) * e^(-t/τ)
N(t) = N(0) * e^(-λt)
τ is the mean lifetime - the average amount of time a nucleus remains intact.
λ is the decay constant (rate of decay).
All three of the parameters characterizing a substance's radioactivity are related in the following way:
T = ln(2)/λ = ln(2)*τ
How to calculate the half life
Determine the initial amount of a substance. For example, N(0) = 2.5 kg.
Determine the final amount of a substance - for instance, N(t) = 2.1 kg.
Measure how long it took for that amount of material to decay. In our experiment, we observed that it took 5 minutes.
Input these values into our half life calculator. It will compute a result for you instantaneously - in this case, the half life is equal to 19.88 minutes.
If you are not certain that our calculator returned the correct result, you can always check it using the half life formula.
Answer:
Explanation:
Lipids also come from foods, most commonly in the form of cholesterol or triglycerides. Certain kinds of essential lipids are often present in vegetable oils and legumes, as well as the cell membranes of just about every living thing.
