Hurricane moving onto land rapidly loses its punch, and the storm declines in intensity due to two reasons:
1. Lack of warm, moist air (<span>a </span>lack<span> of </span>moisture<span> in the lower troposphere reduces the severity of a </span>storm)
2. Friction (I<span>ncrease in surface </span>friction<span> as Hurricane moves onto land is known to be a factor for the decay of hurricanes</span>).

5 (10 pts). Describe the difference between a primary producer, primary consumer and secondary or tertiary consumer, and give an
Elodia [21]

Answer:

<u>Food chain as given below</u>

Explanation:

  • A consumer is a living creature in the food chain that eats other consumers and maintains a balance in the food web. Primary producers are all green plants that prepare their food by their ability to utilize the sun's energy and convert that available raw energy into starch in their body by the process of photosynthesis.  
  • These Autotrophs take up the organic matter through their roots in the form xylem and phylum and giving oxygen in the air. They form the base of the food chain on which are dependent Herbivorous like sheep, goat, cow, etc.  
  • The secondary consumers are called the Carnivorous, like the lion, tiger, etc that feed on the bodies of herbivorous. Above this level is that of Omnivorous i.e both plant and animal eaters like the crow, man, and cat.
  • As stated by the law of thermodynamics energy can neither be destroyed nor created but transforms itself. The flow of energy at each trophic level gets successively transferred to the next trophic level from primary to secondary tertiary and so on.
  • Likewise, toxin concentration in trophic levels increased each level upwards and leads to biomagnification that is harmful to the entire food chain.

Many times a map scale will show distances in both miles and
fiasKO [112]

The correct answer is - kilometers.

Very often, the map scale is showing distances in both miles and kilometers. The reason for this that the majority of the countries in the world use the metric system, thus the kilometers are a must, but also there countries that do not use this system, thus they include the miles. In this way, the map scale can be used by people that both use and not use the metric system in their daily lives.

The map scale is a very important element on the maps. Its purpose is to enable the reader of the map to be able to measure the distance from one place to another, thus to be aware of the real distance in the real space.

Which force acts an an object to move it from rest or a constant, straight-line motion?
Tema [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Balanced forces/Resultant force/ Newton's first law/law of inertia.

<h3>Explanation:</h3><h3>Balanced forces/Resultant force/ Newton's first law/law of inertia:</h3>

It says that each article will remain in its state of rest or similar motion in a straight line except a resultant force works on it. It is known as the law of inertia.

The inertia of the body is the hesitation of the target to alter its state of peace or movement.

The inertia of an article depends on its size. The greater the body, the greater the inertia. It shows it is difficult to start moving, stop, slow down, speed up or change direction. Force is required to overcome inertia.

39 points. What is a "drunken forest" and what does it have to do with the topography of Eastern Europe?
irina [24]

They are found in the tundra regions of Eastern and central Europe. Mostly covered in permafrost, in some areas this frost has melted. The Drunken forest is the reference to the shallowness of where the trees roots are and then the trees start to tip over (Like a drunk man LOL). But within the Northern Hemisphere it alters the life around it and also destroys roads and buildings
