Answer:

Lead

Explanation:

The material that will warm up the fastest would be<u> lead.</u>

<em>The specific heat capacity of a substance is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit of the substance by one degree. The higher the specific heat capacity of a substance, the higher the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the substance and vice versa.</em>

The specific heat capacity (in J/g °C) of granite, iron, copper, and lead are as follows:

Granite - 0.790

Iron    - 0.450

Copper - 0.385

Lead - 0.129

From the table, <u>lead has the lowest specific heat capacity, hence, it will be the fastest to get warmed when equal masses of all the substances are placed in the sunlight.</u>

A positive feedback loop, where the product signals for the production of more reactant, is maintained homeostasis.
OleMash [197]

False

Homeostasis is defined as the process of resisting change in order to maintain a stable environment. It typically involves negative feedback loops as these loops prohibits the change to occur in the human body system and maintain a constant internal environment. While positive feedback is the process of amplifying the stimulus produced within the body.

Homeostasis is thus regulated by negative feedback loops and rearely regulated by the positive feedback loops.

What is a density dependent limiting factor that affects population size?
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Disease

Explanation:

In Ecology, certain factors that affect the size of a population can either be dependent on size or not. Density-dependent factors are those factors that affect population of organisms in dependence of how dense the population is. Examples of these density dependent factors are diseases, predation etc.

For example, a certain disease will spread faster among a population of organisms whose size is dense but slower in a scarcely densed population. Hence, disease as a factor is dependent on population size. Note that; Drought, Climate, and Natural Disasters will wipe out a population irrespective of its size.
