The correct answer is a density-independent factor.  

Density-independent factor refers to any factor that restricts the population size, and whose influence is not reliant on the number of people in the population. An example of such a factor is a hurricane that will eradicate or kill all the individuals of the population, which comes under its influence irrespective of whether the size of the population of large or small.

Pepsi [2]
<span> a. predicting weather patterns</span>. Scientific models are used in making predictions. One way to do this is by analyzing big chunks of data from the past, and see if it can predict the present with accuracy. Computers are often used to create this models because of the huge amount of data that need to be manipulated.

mario62 [17]

Answer:No

Explanation:Plants will not just have to rely on one animal to help reproduce. Plants can mimic things such as scents or looks to be an incentive for other animals. Wind and water can also help transport pollen. Plants always have pollinators such as wind, water, insects, and animals. Plants use mimicry in order to attract the biotic pollinators. Plants will never have trouble reproducing because they have so many different pollinators.

Which of the following explains why water is a good solvent for polar and ionic compounds?
Anni [7]

Hi there!

<u>Electronegativity</u> is the concept of how likely an atom is to attract the shared molecules in one of these bonds to itself. We know the molecule water is made up of two hydrogens and one oxygen. The electronegativity of hydrogen is 2.2, and oxygen 3.4. An <u>ionic bond</u> needs at least a difference in electronegativity of 1.6. As the difference is less than that, we can say that water is a covalent molecule. This then wipes out choice B, because it is not ionic, and C, as we have seen it is actually covalent.

Now, we can see the difference in electronegativity between oxygen and hydrogen is still 1.2. This means that while it is not at the point for there to be an ionic bond, there is still a difference in attraction, where the electrons will tend to favor the oxygen more and 'hang around it' more. As electrons are <u>negatively charged</u><em><u>,</u></em> this means that the oxygen will gain a slightly negative charge. This then makes the molecule polar, because it now has a charge within the molecule. This means we have our answer, choice D.

In terms of hydrophobic molecules - they tend to be ones without a charge. (If you're interested in this kind of stuff, I'd search hydrophobic up, and possibly also look into hydrogen bonds).

Hope this helps! Feel free to ask me any other questions you have about this specific problem.
