Answer:

C. belief preservance

Explanation:

<u>Belief perservance:</u> It is defined as holding onto your ideas over time, and actively rejecting information that contradicts your ideas resulting in less internal mental conflict and more social conflict.

As in the given scenario, Rachel has knowledge about the disadvantages of the fast food but she is actively rejecting the information and holding onto her ideas over time,. Hence Rachel's thinking is an example of belief perseverance.

The net primary production of a pine forest on a lava flow on Mount Fuji is about 165,000 kcal/m2/yr, and the plant respiration
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

<em>The total amount of energy transferred during photosynthesis for this ecosystem equals</em><em> 260,000 kcal/m2/yr.</em>

Explanation:

To answer this question, we need to know that  

  • gross primary productivity (GPP) = energy captured and converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis
  • net primary productivity (NPP) = difference between GPP and respiration rate

So, to calculate GPP we need to sum NPP to Respiration rate. This if,

NPP = 165,000 kcal/m2/yr

R = 95,000 kcal/m2/yr

NPP = GPP – Respiration

Then,

GPP = NPP + R

GPP = 165,000 kcal/m2/yr + 95,000 kcal/m2/yr

GPP = 260,000 kcal/m2/yr

Within a phase, a change in heat causes the temperature of the substance to _____ as the _____ energy of the molecules changes.
Nana76 [90]

Within a phase, a change in heat causes the temperature of the substance to change as the kinetic energy of the molecules changes. During a phase change, however, a change in heat causes a change in the potential energy of the molecules and the temperature will stay the same.

<h3>What is Potential energy?</h3>

Potential energy may be defined as a form of accumulated energy that relies upon the comparative situation of diverse parts of a system.

The above passage determines the differentiation between the kinetic and potential energies with respect to temperature and phase change.

Therefore, it is well described above.

To learn more about Potential and Kinetic energy, refer to the link:

What are these structures stop blood flowing backwards into the atria.
wel

Answer:Valves stop blood flowing backwards

Explanation: Valve are flags of tissue that control the direction of the blood in our heart.,it prevent the backwards flow of blood. valves regulate blood from flowing back into the atria.The right and left atrio-ventricular valves prevent blood from flowing backwards into atria. When the ventricle is full,the valve prevent backwards flow of blood.
