Phytoplankton use sunlight to gain energy through photosynthesis. As a result of the Law of Conservation of Energy, phytoplankto
n cannot gain more energy than it consumes. A closed system consisting of an aquarium, phytoplankton, and sunlight is set up. Which of the following methods would best demonstrate the Law of Conservation of Energy? (3 points) A. Measure the mass and temperature of the water. Then cover the aquarium to block the sunlight and measure the mass of the phytoplankton.
B. Change the closed system to isolated, so that energy can move out of it. Then measure the amount of energy that leaves.
C. Measure the mass of the phytoplankton before and after photosynthesis. Add the mass of the water.
D. Measure the amount of energy in the phytoplankton and the amount of light entering the aquarium. Then measure the amount of energy in the phytoplankton after exposure to the light and determine the difference
Answer: D: Measure the amount of energy in the phytoplankton and the amount of light entering the aquarium. Then measure the amount of energy in the phytoplankton after exposure to the light and determine the difference.
Explanation: This will describe the law as the amount of energy leaving the system will be the same as measured before exposure to light.
Overuse of antibiotics is causing this resistance, we can let our bodies fight off bacterial infections naturally, stop the overuse of antibacterial soaps and cleansers, let our bodies build up resistance to these bacterias naturally through natural exposure.
