Explanation :

The kinetic energy of an object, KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Potential energy of an object, PE=mgh

Where,

m is the mass of an object

v is the velocity of an object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height above the reference level

When Eric throws a basketball straight up in the air, the kinetic energy at maximum height will be zero or we can say that the kinetic energy decreases to zero. The potential energy of basketball is increasing due to increase in height.

Elenna [48]

Answer:

Wildlife is living organisms, like plants and animals that live anywhere in the world that they are not isolated in a certain area.

Explanation:

Each wildlife creature lives in an ecosystem that their bodies can tolerate and be able to survive in.

  • Penguin´s bodies are adapted to keep them warm in Antarctica, if they are in warm climates they would overheat.
  • Cold-blooded animals like iguanas cannot live in cold climates because their body temperature would be according to what they feel, so living in cold climates would cause them to die from hypothermia.

Hope it helps:)
