Answer:

Aluminium

Explanation:

Aluminium will raise the temperature of the water the most because it has the highest specific heat.

I had gotten this question on USA Test Prep and this was their explanation:

"The correct answer is aluminum. Specific heat is the measure of the heat energy required to increase or decrease the temperature of a substance by a certain temperature interval. Aluminum has the highest specific heat; that means at the same temperature as the other metals, it contains the most amount of energy. When placed in the water, it will transfer the most energy and raise the temperature the highest."

The metal with the highest value of specific heat will raise the temperature the most.

How does a parallel circuit differ from a series circuit?
8_murik_8 [283]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. A parallel circuit differ from a series circuit in a sense that a <span>series circuit has one path for electrons, but a parallel circuit has more than one path. In a parallel circuit there two or more paths for current to flow while a series circuit only has one.</span>

When you go "down" the food chain by continuing to ask "what does it eat?" at what category of living things do you always end u
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Autotrophs

Explanation:

When you go down a food chain continuing to ask "what does it eat?" the last living thing that you will land upon is an autotroph.

Autotrophs are the primary producers as they (photoautotrophs) use the energy either from the sun to prepare  there food by the process of photosynthesis or, more rarely, obtain chemical energy through oxidation (chemoautotrophs) to make organic substances from inorganic ones.

Autotrophs get consumed by the primary consumers in the food chain.

The statement “When an object is in orbit, it is falling at the same rate at which the Earth is curving” is true. The speed of a satellite orbiting the earth depends only on the mass of the earth and the mass of the satellite.
