Answer:
It is true that earth was once covered with oceans and little dry land.
Explanation:
Over the course of around four billion years, the Earth's oceans have lost about a quarter of their original mass. Today the atmosphere is rich in oxygen, which reacts with both hydrogen and deuterium to recreate water, which falls back to the Earth's surface. So the vast bulk of the water on Earth is held in a closed system that prevents the planet from gradually drying out. According to the researchers, the continents emerged relatively suddenly from an ocean that covered 95 percent of the Earth's surface. The appearance of large masses of dry land would have caused more extreme weather, changes in ocean currents and the emergence of proper seasons. In turn, these environmental changes may have led to rise in atmospheric oxygen that enabled the explosion of new life forms around 500 million years ago.
Answer:
All the option are correct
Explanation:
The ocean currents have been associated with past climatic shifts during critical periods (for example, the ice ages), where modifications in water circulation might have caused important climatic changes.
From a biological point of view, the ocean currents may be associated not only with the climate but also biogeochemical cycles through modifications in the distribution of heat and freshwater. Thus, the changes in ocean circulation may produce biogeographical shifts by affecting the local climate. The importance of ocean currents in affecting biodiversity is also represented by the equilibrium of coral reef ecosystems, where this equilibrium is broken up by factors such as transport of pollutants, temperature conditions, etc., which are known to alter thermosensitive coral species.
Answer:
D. The relationship between volume and moles
Explanation:
Amedo Avogadro found the relationship between the volume of a gas and the number of molecules contained in the volume.
The law states that "equal volume of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contains the same number of molecules or moles".
Mathematically:
V ∝ n (P,T constant)
Answer:
If the volume of a gas increased from 2 to 6 L while the temperature was held constant, <u><em>the pressure of the gas decreased by a factor of 3.</em></u>
Explanation:
Boyle's law that says "The volume occupied by a given gaseous mass at constant temperature is inversely proportional to pressure." This means that if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, while if the pressure decreases, the volume increases.
Boyle's law is expressed mathematically as:
Pressure * Volume = constant
or
P * V = k
To obtain the proportionality factor k you must make the quotient:

k= 3
This means that <u><em>if the volume of a gas increased from 2 to 6 L while the temperature was held constant, the pressure of the gas decreased by a factor of 3.</em></u>
