Answer:
Multiple organisms may be affected by the loss of a plant species.
Explanation:
Organisms that feed directly off the lost plant will be affected, and because of that, organisms that feed off those organisms will be affected. This could also affect other organisms like parasites. Other plant species may be affected from the loss of a competitive species. This could affect organisms that feed off that plant, and the organisms that feed off those organisms.
Answer: Most of them lie in a belt between Earth and Mars.
Explanation:
Asteroids are small rocky bodies having irregular shape size which orbit sun. Majority of the asteroids are found in a belt between orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Scientists presume that these asteroids are remains of a planet that never formed between Mars and Jupiter due to great gravitational pull of the largest planet of the solar -system - Jupiter.
Thus, the incorrect description of the asteroids is: Most of them lie in a belt between Earth and Mars.
A second order reaction varies with the square of the concentration of the reactant. Therefore, halving the concentration will reduce the rate of reaction by a factor of 4.
The answer is E.
Answer:
Melting of snow
Evaporation of water from desk
Explanation:
Processes that increase the entropy of the universe are those processes that have an increased disorderliness. We should note that there are three principal states of matter which are the liquid, gas and solid. The gaseous state is the most disorderly while the solid is the least disorderly.
Now. We can see that the cooling of a hot cup of coffee is a process that needs or leads to a loss in temperature which obviously decreases disorderliness of the universe.
The melting of snow however is a process that leads to an increase in the disorderliness of the universe. It entails moving from the solid state to the liquid state. It tends to move to a more disordered state indicating an increase in the entropy of the universe.
The evaporation of water from the desk is quite similar to that above. Hence since we are moving from the liquid to the gaseous state via evaporation, we can state that the entropy of the universe has increased since we have moved from a state with a lesser degree of disorderliness to a state that is more disordered I.e from liquid to gaseous state.
