kow [346]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

A rock would experience a temperature of 5500°C is about the core which is at a depth of 220km.

But let us use the earth's geothermal gradient to solve this problem.

The geothermal gradient is the rate at which temperature is increasing with depth.

The geothermal gradient 25°C/km

        At 5500°C,

               5500°C x  \frac{1}{25}  \frac{k}{C}  =    220km

But this is not so in nature, there are other heat sources that contributes to increasing temperature with depth such as radioactive heat and frictional heat.

Ecology and evolution are closely related, as are evolution and genetics. All have an impact on the world around us.
PtichkaEL [24]

Ecology is the science that studies the interaction between living beings and the environment in which they live.

<h3>How can I help with conservation?</h3>

  1. Buy recycled paper avoiding the death of more trees
  2. Have a recycling bin for paper, plastic, metal and glass, to reduce the environmental damage in waste and for the waste to be reused
  3. Recycle toner and ink cartridges from empty printers, to avoid polluting rivers and streams.
  4. If possible buy remanufactured cartridges, avoiding environmental impact
  5. Recycle old newspapers, avoiding the death of more trees.

<h3>What is the evidence for evolution?</h3>

  1. Anatomy. Species may share similar physical features because those features were present in a common ancestor (homologous structures).
  2. Molecular biology. DNA and genetic code reflect the common ancestry of life

With this information, we can conclude that Ecology is concerned with the living beings on the planet and their relationships with each other and with the environment.

Akimi4 [234]

The FOIL method is used to multiply binomials, or to multiply (x + 3) by (3x -12) for example. Then multiply the OUTSIDE terms together, or x and -12 to get -12x. Then multiply the INSIDE terms together, or 3 and 3x to get 9x. The multiply the LAST terms together, or 3 and -12 to get -36.
