Answer:
This question is incomplete, the options are:
A) Decreased temperature
B) Strong southerly winds
C) Presence of a predator
D) Lack of water
The answer is C
Explanation:
A stimulus is something that provokes a response or reaction in a living organism. It can either be internal or external. An animal can respond to stimulus such as hunger, heat, predator etc.
However, among all the listed stimuli in the options, the PRESENCE OF A PREDATOR is most likely to result in a more rapid heartbeat in an animal. This is because the predator stimulus will require the animal to respond by running in order to survive. Running will increase its metabolic activity and cause its heartbeat to increase.
Polarity affects hydrogen bonding because hydrogen bonding occurs due to a bond being polar. One side of the bond will be slightly more negative because it's pulling more electrons towards itself and the other side of the bond will be more positive. Therefore the partially positive bond of one molecule will be attracted to the partially negative bond of another molecule. This is called an intermolecular force and hydrogen bonds are the strongest intermolecular force.
Enzymes are considered catalysts, they help reactants and can be used over and over
The correct order would be:
1. A tree absorbs the carbon from the atmosphere into its leaves for photosynthesis;
2. A caterpillar gets the carbon by eating the tree's leaves.
3. A bird gets the carbon by eating the caterpillar.
4. The bird flies into a building and dies instantly. It falls to the ground.
5. The bird decomposes and the carbon returns to the atmosphere.
The carbon cycle is very similar to the water cycle, though it has its own unique ways. Once the carbon is released into the atmosphere, it will either be absorbed by the vegetation, or go up into the higher parts of the atmosphere. If it is absorbed by the vegetation, the organisms that eat the vegetation will get it in them. When the predators eat those organism they get the carbon into their organisms. When the predators die, they start to decompose. When they decompose, the carbon is released from them and it returns to the atmosphere, and the whole process goes all over again.
