Answer:
1. As temperature and pressure increases, density increases
Explanation:
The earth is composed of three main layers: Crust, Mantle and Core. The density or mass per unit volume of the earth's layers increases as one moves from the surface towards the interior of the earth known as the core. Also, there is an increase in pressure and temperature as depth increases. There are three main sources of heat in the earth's core: (1) conserved heat from when the planet formed and coalesced, (2) heat due to friction caused by denser core material sinking to the center of the planet, and (3) heat from the decay of radioactive elements.
The earth's core is composed almost entirely of the metals, iron and nickel. The core has an inner solid layer and a molten outer core. Iron and nickel are both very dense metals, so the core of the earth is very dense and the density increases with depth with the inner core being the most dense layer of the earth.
Answer:
(C) The main predator of these fish is another species of fish on which alligators also prey.
Explanation:
The ecosystems are complex systems, and removing one species of them, always has a chain reaction and affects the population of the other species, be it in a positive or negative manner. In this case, the alligators prey upon fish, multiple different species. The alligators though have been removed from the ecosystem, thus the apex predator exists no more. This has opened up the top predator niche in the food chain in this particular ecosystem. The predatory fish species had no predators of its own, so its population increased, thus it needed more food, and that food was obtained by hunting the other fish species, resulting in a decline in the population of the other species of fish. Only when the carrying capacity is reached in the ecosystem for the predatory fish, the population of the other fish will stop declining.
Answer: d
Explanation:
A plant cell has a plant wall so a and b can be disregarded. Mitosis ends with a cleavage factor dividing the cell in two so d represents the last stage
<h2>(A) is the correct option </h2>
Explanation:
- An organism is part of a community is correct,where species interaction occurs between different organisms
- A community is part of population is the incorrect statement because a community includes group of population of two or more different species
- An ecosystem is made up of only organisms is the incorrect statement because ecosystem is the community of both living and non living components of the environment and how they interact with each other
- A biome is the biotic part of an ecosystem is incorrect because biome includes the community of both plants and animals occupying a large habitat
