Answer : The diameter in meters is, 5.5\times 10^{-9}m

Explanation :

As we are given that the diameter of red blood cells is, 5.5 nm. Now we have to convert it into meter.

The conversion used from nanometer to meter is:

1nm=10^{-9}m

As, 1nm=10^{-9}m

So, 5.5nm=\frac{5.5nm}{1nm}\times 10^{-9}m=5.5\times 10^{-9}m

Thus, the diameter in meters is, 5.5\times 10^{-9}m

brilliants [131]

Given the fact that we are seeing a rise in the temperature of the globe, the artic animals in that ecosystem must adapt by a reduction in the rate of metabolism.

<h3>What is global warming?</h3>

Several evidences continue to emerge that the temperature of the earth have continued to increase and this is largely due to the fact that since the turn of the twentieth century and the rise of industrialization, there have been a rise in the emission of the carbon dioxide and other green house gases into the environment. As a result of this, the temperature of the earth has continued to rise steadily leading to the melting of the ice cover and the destruction of ecosystems that are found around the artic regions of the earth.

Now, we know that an organism is able to adapt to the changes that occur in its habitat by being able to alter some of its structure and function.

Given that the organisms that live in the artic are adapted to cold regions and low temperatures, the metabolic rate of the organisms is high in order to produce heat.

As a result of the rise in global temperatures, the organisms would have to reduce their rate of metabolism.

Which is not a characteristic of the zones of a deciduous forest?
Nady [450]
<span>Deciduous forests have a long, warm growing season as one of four distinct seasons.There is abundant moisture.The soil typically is rich. The leaves dropped from trees provide a steady source of organic material for the soil. Many species live in the soil and break down the organic matter.Tree leaves are arranged in strata: canopy, understory, shrub, and ground. A great deal of light is therefore filtered out before it reaches the ground.With the dropping of their leaves during one season, trees stop photosynthesis and enter a dormant period.<span>Three main types of trees are characteristic of these forests: northern hardwood, central hardwood, and southeast pine and oak.

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

An increase in soil temperature increases microorganism growth because the rate of decomposition increases.

Explanation:

An increase in soil temperature increases microbial activities and the activity of extracellular enzymes that degrade polymeric organic matter within the soil. <u>An increase in the soil microbial activities means that the decomposition rate and microorganism growth would increase</u>. Increase in the activity of extracellular enzymes that degrade polymeric organic matter within the soil also means that more carbon dioxide would be produced and released into the atmosphere.
