The tools used by marine scientists to make observations about oceans and marine organisms are Remote Operated vehicle (ROV), Automated untethered Vehicle (AUVs), Global positioning system (GPS) and Human-occupied vehicle (HOV).

<h2>Further Explanation </h2>

ROV mean Remote operated vehicle which allows marine scientists to explore the ocean without necessary being in the ocean. Remote Operated Vehicle is a robot that is controlled by a person on the ship.

It is connected to the ship and the person that controls it uses joystick, which is similar to how we play a video game. It has a still camera, video camera and lights used to transmit videos and images back to the ship.  

Automated untethered vehicles (AUVs) are untethered, unmanned vehicles that are used by marine scientists to conduct underwater research. Through Micromodem, an operator controlled computer passes information or command to AUVs in regards to when, where and what they sample. AUVs use different types of equipment for surveying and sampling such as sonar, camera and depth sensors.

Global positioning system (GPS) receiver is a navigation system that is used to show the location of the ship. GPS provides accurate navigation information for marine scientists.

Human occupied vehicle (HOV) also known as manned submersibles have the capacity to reach the full-depth of the ocean. It is used by marine scientists to carry out geophysical, geochemical, and biological studies, viewing and sampling of organism.

It has high quality video imaging system and can produce 3-D movies. It also has sophisticated syntactic foam.

The marine scientist uses tools like remote operated vehicle, which is an underwater mobile device that is used for navigation of the vehicle. A number of cables are attached that are connected  to a ship, and through these cable commands are transmitted.

Autonomous underwater vehicle is  used for underwater surveys ( it can be used for detecting and mapping submerged rocks and obstructions that can be dangerous.)

GPS a satellite navigation that is a tool used to provide location and time.  

Whilst HOV is used in order to make explorations in the deepest water of the sea.

During periods of rapid environmental change, what may happen to a species that was well-suited to the former environment?
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

The environment usually refers to all the biotic and the abiotic components that are surrounding us. This environment undergoes changes depending upon various factors which can be natural and/or due to the anthropogenic activities.

When there occur rapid environmental changes, then it directly affects the lives of species, in different ways, such as-

  • Those species that are comparatively weaker in adapting according to the environmental changes that occur, will not be able to cope up with the new environment. They may become extinct.
  • Some variety of species will be able to adapt to the new environment because of their easily adapting capabilities.
  • The traits that will be developed within the species in the new environment will be more successful in terms of reproduction.
  • The previously existed traits may have a harmful impact in the newly formed environment.

ATP is produced during the process of cellular respiration. Which is the order of the steps of cellular respiration....A.Krebs c
erica [24]
<span>The answer is C.glycolysis ® Krebs cycle ® electron transport chain. There are 3 stages of cellular respiration: 1. glycolysis when glucose is broken down to pyruvate in the cytoplasm; 2. Krebs cycle when Acetyl CoA and oxaloacetate form a 6 C-atoms compound; 3. Electron transport chain when hydrogen molecules removed through previous stages are pumped to the chain and energy is produced.</span>

Aquatic organisms in coastal areas face a variety of predators on land and in the water and air. Which ocean process exposes the
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

b

Explanation:

<em>The correct answer as to the ocean process that exposes the coastal organisms to land-based predators would be the daily tidal patterns that leave the coastal area exposed to the land for a part of the day.</em>

Some parts of the coastal areas become exposed to land during certain periods of the day as a result of tidal waves. When this happens, the aquatic organisms occupying these coastal areas become temporarily exposed to land predators who hunt and kill them for food.

<u>Therefore, the correct option is b. </u>

The formation of what three classes of substances cause double displacement reactions to occur
Lera25 [3.4K]
The three substances that cause a double displacement reaction to occur are:
(i)   Ionized compounds. These are usually water.
(ii)   A gas that bubbles out a solution.
(iii)  A precipitate.

In double displacement reaction is where two new compounds are formed when two parts of two compounds switch places. For example; when sodium chloride combines with silver nitrate, the two new compounds formed are Sodium nitrate and silver chloride reason being sodium and silver switched places.
