Answer:

The bowl of ice cream contains ice cream with temperature below freezing point. A hot body contains more thermal energy than a cold body. Thermal energy only flows from a hot body to a cold body, and not the reverse.

The bowl of ice cream contain less thermal energy than it sorrounding envoirment (air and the kitchen counter), this creates a temperature gradient that forces thermal energy from the sorrounding envoirment into the bowl of ice cream because, according to thermodynamics, all bodies always tend to be in thermal equilibrium with its sorrounding. The thermal energy flows into the bowl of ice cream until it has the same thermal energy with its sorrounding; bringing the thermal gradient between them to zero.

Describe the limiting factors that can affect carrying capacity.
astra-53 [7]

Answer:  Limiting factors determine carrying capacity. The availability of abiotic factors (such as water, oxygen, and space) and biotic factors (such as food) dictates how many organisms can live in an ecosystem. Carrying capacity is also impacted by the availability of decomposers. Space, food, oxygen, and water are limiting factors. ... Limiting factors determine carrying capacity.
