Explanation:

<em>Instead </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>term </em><em>natural </em><em>selection </em><em>used </em><em>by </em><em>Darwin</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>Herbert </em><em>Spencer </em><em>used </em><em>survival </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>fittest</em><em>.</em><em> </em><em>According </em><em>to </em><em>Darwin</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>out </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>vast </em><em>number </em><em>of </em><em>individuals </em><em>which </em><em>complete </em><em>for </em><em>a </em><em>place </em><em>in </em><em>the </em><em>world</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>only </em><em>those </em><em>having </em><em>advantageous </em><em>variations </em><em>survive </em><em>and </em><em>reproduce</em><em>.</em><em> </em><em>Those </em><em>who </em><em>do </em><em>not </em><em>have </em><em>these </em><em>variations </em><em>die. </em><em>Thus</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>nature </em><em>exercises </em><em>it's </em><em>selection </em><em>on </em><em>only </em><em>those </em><em>individuals</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>which </em><em>are </em><em>the </em><em>fittest</em><em>;</em><em> </em><em>only </em><em>they </em><em>survive </em><em>and </em><em>reproduce </em><em>successfully</em><em>. </em><em>The </em><em>process </em><em>is </em><em>called </em><em>Natural </em><em>Selection</em><em>. </em>

What error in the data is likely to occur if the hydrated salt is heated strongly
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

If the hydrated salt is overheated, it causes the anhydrous salt to decompose, causing the product to be lost as gas. The reported percentage of water loss will be too high because the gap between the initial measurement and final (which will be lower due to loss of sample) measurement will widen.

Which type of decay has the greatest mass?
iVinArrow [24]

The type of decay which has the greatest mass is the alpha decay. An unstable nucleus loses the most mass if the nucleus emits an alpha particle. This type of decay has the largest mass among the radioactive decay. When this particle is emitted from a nucleus, it loses two protons and two neutrons therefore large amount of mass is lost.
