Answer:

Open system - both matter and energy can transfer

closed system - only energy can transfer

isolated system - neither energy nor matter can transfer

Explanation:

1. Open system

An open system is the one in which both energy and matter is exchanged as the substance in this system is free to move. For example - Heating  water in a can without lid. Here both the energy (heat) and matter (water) is allowed to escape.

2. Closed System

In this system,  only energy transfer is possible and exchange of matter is restricted through some external constraint.

For example - when water is heated in a container with a closed lid. Here heat (energy) can escape but water (matter) cannot escape

2. Isolated System

In this system, transfer of both energy and matter is restricted by isolating the system

For example - if water is poured into an insulated container, both heat (energy) and water (matter) are restricted from heating

Why do living things go to great lengths to increase<br> their chances of reproduction?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Living things use structural strategies and behavioral strategies that increase their chances of reproduction.

Living things do so to reach the reproduction goal that is to pass genes on to offspring. For example: the pouch of a kangaroo, a frog croaking a mating call,  and colorful petals of flower etcetera helps in increasing mating chances so that their genes can be followed to the generation.
