<u>Answer:</u> Some of the mass gets converted in the form of energy related to mass.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mass defect is defined as the difference in the mass of an isotope and the mass number of an atom. Equation representing mass defect is:

\Delta m=[(n_p\times m_p)+(n_n\times m_n)]-M

where,

\Delta m = mass defect of an atom

n_p = number of protons

m_p = mass of one proton

n_n = number of neutrons

m_n = mass of one neutron

M = mass number

The mass number of an atom (mass of nucleus) is always less than the isotopic mass (total mass of its nucleons) because energy is released when nucleus gets formed. This energy is related to mass of the nucleus and is known as binding energy.

Hence, some of the mass gets converted in the form of energy related to mass.

1.
-Water levels are dangerously high for wildlife and humans.
-Animals seem to be lost, like the cow and the sheep especially.

2.
-There are not many trees near the water, meaning less areas for wildlife to live.
-There is not much wildlife in general.

Inferences
1. The wildlife shown will move relocate and adapt to another area.
2. Industry — emissions are visible in top left— will continue to hurt the environment. CO2 emissions will increase.

Good luck!

Alexeev081 [22]
Answer is: <span>Double Displacement.
Combustion is reaction with oxygen.
</span>Synthesis is reaction of two or more substances combining to make a more complex substance. 
Decomposition is reaction where one substance is broken down into two or more simpler substances. 
Single Displacement is reaction where  neutral element metal or nonmetal become an ion as it replaces another ion in a compound. 
<span>Double displacement reactions (more reactive metals displace metals with lower reactivity).
</span>Neutralization<span>is is </span>reaction<span> in which an </span>acid<span> and a </span>base<span> react quantitatively with each other.</span>
