How do properties of water affect aquatic ecosystems?

Biology
1 answer:
DochEvi [55]3 years ago
4 0

El agua presenta algunas propiedades térmicas que son:

Calor específico: Una masa de agua requiere gran cantidad de calor para elevar su temperatura, pero tarda más para enfriarse; actúa como regulador térmico. (15°C)

Calor latente de fusión: Para convertir 1 gramo de hielo en agua se requieren 80 calorías a 0ºC.

Conductividad térmica: La conductividad térmica del agua es muy baja, por tanto su calentamiento por conducción es muy lento.

El calor latente de evaporación: Gran parte de la radiación solar se utiliza en la evaporación del agua, produciendo efectos beneficiosos sobre los climas y éstos a su vez sobre las comunidades.

Densidad del agua: El agua al solidificarse aumenta de volumen, por tanto el hielo flota sobre las aguas. Esta propiedad evita que los lagos se solidifiquen totalmente, cuando las aguas se congelan en la superficie.

What impact does fast food have on adolescent obesity?
BartSMP [9]
Fast Food often contains more sodium, carbs and sugar counts than most home cooked or healthy meals. For kids whos parents are on a budget, fast food is the often option for meals, causing calorie counts to build up, eventually turning into stages of obesity. The average child calorie intake is between 1,600-2,500 per day. It is also recommended that children under age 18 should refrain from sodium counts higher than 2,200 per day. For one meal at McDonalds, to get a cheeseburger, fries and a coca-cola beverage, you are looking at around 1,100 calories and 1,200 mg of sodium. If the child eats this two times a day, the total calorie count would be above the national average, therefore causing the child to gain weight off the extra calories.

3) Scientists who have examined the fossil record have noted that some species have changed very little over long
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A) "the environment that they lived in remained the same, and they were well-adapted to it".

Explanation:

One of the basis of evolution is that species that face new environmental conditions tend to develop new traits to survive. The opposite applies to species that have lived in constant environmental conditions, these species are usually well-adapted and have changed very little over long periods of geologic time. Some species of tortoises are examples of animals that had changed very little in their evolutionary history. The hard shells of tortoises is an ancient adaptation that help them to survive in constant environmental conditions.

Katyanochek1 [597]
Same genus is more closely related. The farther down the list Phylum-Class-Order-Family-Genus-Species you go, the more closely related are the species in that taxon.
