The cold cream will drop to the bottom of the cup. When it warms, some of it will rise back to the surface.

<h2><u><em>Explanation</em></u></h2><h2><u><em></em></u></h2>

<u><em>Convection is what drives the spread of the cold cream through the hot coffee. Since the cold cream is denser than the hot coffee, it will drop to the bottom of the cup. The cream's density will decrease as it warms. Once the cream at the bottom warms past a certain point, its density will be low enough that some of it will rise back to the surface.</em></u>

The line graph shows the heights of plants grown in fertilized and unfertilized soil. Based on this information, what will most
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

  • <u><em>g) Neither plant should increase by 1 cm in height.</em></u>

Explanation:

See the graph for this question on the figure attached.

The growing of the <em>plant A</em> is represented by the line that goes above the other. At start, that line has a slope that rises about 0.75 cm ( height increase) in 1 day. From the day 2 and forward the slope of the line decreases. The line reaches its highest point about at day 4 and seems to start decreasing. Thus, you should predict that on the day six it <em>most likely </em>does not increase in height.

The growing of the <em>plant B</em> is represented by the line drawn below the other. As for the plant B, the growing decreases with the number of days. Between the days 4 and 5 the line is almost flat, which means that <em>most likely</em> this plant will not grow on the day six or grow less than 0.5 cm.

Thus, for both plants you can say that <em>on day six, most likley, neither should increase by 1 cm in height (</em>option g).

How do oceanographers define salinity?
Studentka2010 [4]

The oceanographers define salinity by the number of grams of salt per kilogram of water.  

Salinity is illustrated as how much salt is present in the given amount of water. It is dependent upon how much salt is found in the ocean in the specific regions. If there is a sunny environment, it may evaporate an ample amount of water, and leave behind a lot of salt, thus, the water has more salinity.  

The salinity of the ocean is usually measured in Practical Salinity Unit (PSU), it is a unit based on the characteristics of seawater conductivity.

Nitrogen ​gas is more abundant in our atmosphere than oxygen! However, nitrogen needs to be converted into different forms to be
Pavlova-9 [17]

Explanation:

(A)role of nittogen fixing bacteria

=Nitrogen-fixing bacteria, microorganisms capable of transforming atmospheric nitrogen into fixed nitrogen (inorganic compounds usable by plants). More than 90 percent of all nitrogen fixation is effected by these organisms, which thus play an important role in the nitrogen cycle.

B)role of nitrifying bacteria

=Nitrifying bacteria convert the most reduced form of soil nitrogen, ammonia, into its most oxidized form, nitrate. In itself, this is important for soil ecosystem function, in controlling losses of soil nitrogen through leaching and denitrification of nitrate.

C)role of denitrifying bacteria

=Denitrifying bacteria converts nitrates back to nitrogen gas.
