Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Iron exhibits two stable oxidation states, +2 and +3 states. The difference between FeO and Fe2O3 is that, in FeO, Fe is in the +2 oxidation state while in Fe2O3, Fe is in the +3 oxidation state

In FeO, iron looses two electrons which are gained by oxygen as follows;

Fe^2+ + O^2- -----> FeO

In Fe2O3, Fe looses six electrons while oxygen has gained six electrons as shown;

2Fe^3+ + 3O^2- ------>Fe2O3

Which term names the group of organisms able to interbreed and produce fertile offspring?
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Species

Explanation:

Species is the group of organisms able to interbreed and produce fertile offspring.

Let's break down each word in the question:

"Organisms" means living thing. It can be a plant or animal like we usually think of, but it also includes the really small single-celled living things like some bacteria.

"Interbreed" means to mate with each other.

"Fertile" means that the living thing can also have babies.

"Offspring" means the children that are born.

"Fertile offspring" means that the children that are made must be able to have babies of their own. For example, if a frog and a bird could interbreed, they might produce offspring (children). But, if those frog-birds cannot also have children, then frog-bird is not a species.

lana [24]
I found a presentation of Food web of a pond that will greatly connect with the above problem.  http://www.eduweb.com/portfolio/earthsystems/food/foodweb4.html

Normal setting:
Species        Pop. size
Blue heron   Medium
Perch            Medium
Bass              Medium
Minnows      Medium
Inverts          Medium
Algae           Medium

If PERCH population size decreases, 
Species        Pop. sizeBlue heron   LowPerch            LowBass              MediumMinnows      HighInverts          HighAlgae           Low

As you can see, 4 other species are affected when the Perch population size decreased. Bass is not affected.

At exactly 2:00 PM, speedy the hermit crab crawl onto a meter stick starting at the 10 cm mark. If he reaches the 60 cm mark at
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

speed=5cm/minute

Explanation:

Given at 2:00PM the hermit is at 10cm mark

Also given that the hermit reaches 60cm mark at 2:10PM

Therefore the time elapsed is  10 minutes = 10\times 60=600 seconds

the distance travelled by the hermit is 60-10=50cm=0.5m

We know that

speed=\frac{distane}{time}

speed=\frac{0.5}{600}

speed = 8.3\times 10^{-4} m/sec=5cm/minute
