Answer: Plant growth, animal actions and pressure release

Explanation:

The weathering is a process of disintegration of rocks into small pieces and sediments. This is caused by chemical or physical agents.

Mechanical weathering is also called as physical weathering. It is caused by the physical activities on the surface of rocks. The following are the examples of mechanical weathering.

1. Plant growth: The plants which grows over the surface of rocks, their roots may penetrate the rocks which causes the disintegration or rocks.

2. Animal actions: The animals may exert their pressure over the surface of rocks. They may create burrows like rat or mice inside the rocks.

3. Pressure release: The rock which was under pressure, instantly if pressure released, the structure of rock will become unstable, this may lead to the disintegration of the rock.

Which statement explains why catalysts are important for living
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Catalysts allow chemical reactions to occur at temperatures at which the organism lives.

Explanation:

Catalysts are molecules that speeden the rate of chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy of the reaction. In a living system, the catalyst are ENZYMES, which help to hasten up many biochemical reactions.

Another function of catalyst in living systems is that it allows chemical reactions to occur at temperatures at which the organism lives.

Answer:

Explanation:

Biodiversity is the variety and variability of life on Earth. Biodiversity is typically a measure of variation at the genetic, species, and ecosystem level. Terrestrial biodiversity is usually greater near the equator, which is the result of the warm climate and high primary productivity. Biodiversity is not distributed evenly on Earth, and is richest in the tropics. These tropical forest ecosystems cover less than 10 percent of earth's surface, and contain about 90 percent of the world's species. Marine biodiversity is usually highest along coasts in the Western Pacific, where sea surface temperature is highest, and in the mid-latitudinal band in all oceans. There are latitudinal gradients in species diversity. Biodiversity generally tends to cluster in hotspots, and has been increasing through time, but will be likely to slow in the future.
