Environmental contaminants make their way into lakes, rivers, and groundwater and many other places. Animals drink that water. Our crops absorb that water that seeps into the soil, those crops are consumed by animals and humans. Therefore those animals are contaminated with whatever contaminant they consumed. In return those animals are ingested by the predator that consumes it therefore passing through the food chain.

we the people of the United states in order to form a more perfect union..."what was the purpose of the introduction that begins
Fantom [35]

Answer:

The preamble sets the stage for the Constitution, It clearly communicates the intentions of the framers and the purpose of the document. The preamble is an introduction to the highest law of the land; it is not the law. It does not define government powers or individual rights.

Establish Justice is the first of five objectives outlined in the 52-word paragraph that the Framers drafted in six weeks during the hot Philadelphia summer of 1787. They found a way to agree on the following basic principles:

"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

Do all please thank you. If not some is ok.
shusha [124]

Answer:

1. Increases

2. Decreases

3. Increases

4. Decreases

5. Increases

6. Increases

Explanation:

Raising air temperature increases temperature of our body while on the other hand, if the air temperature decreases the temperature of our body also decreases because high air temperature heats up our skin surface and low air temperature cools down our skin surface which ultimately increases or decreases the internal body temperature. Adding clothing increases body temperature due to capturing of heat produced by our body. Sweating cools down our body temperature because the water takes the internal heat with itself to the outside. In shivering, the body produced heat so the body temperature increases. Exercising also produces heat inside our body which increases the body temperature.
