Answer:

A drought poses a huge threat to all life. If a drought occurred the entire food chain would disintegrate within months. There would be no water for any animals or plants. Small mammals would not be able to eat plants, and reptiles would not be able to the small animals, and so on. A drought can destroy an ecosystem in a short amount of time.

Water is only being moved into the air through water vapor, so the air will become hotter than water. Land is also not moving in the atmosphere and absorbing heat like air is, so air will also be hotter than land, depending on what the land is made of.

Through precipitation, water in the atmosphere can return to the hydrosphere or percolate into the ground to become groundwater—part of the geosphere. ... Water in the biosphere can be released into the atmosphere through transpiration in plants, or respiration in animals.

Naya [18.7K]

The  individual can consume less than 184.6 g of the snack mix and still be within the FDA limit of salt consumption.

<h3>What is the mass of snack that can be consumed within the limit of sodium intake?</h3>

The mass of the snack mix that the individual can consume and still be within the FDA limit is calculated as follows:

U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends of sodium intake = less than 2.40 g of sodium per day.

Amount of salt in 100 g of snack mix = 1.30 g

Mass of snack that will contain 2.40 g of sodium = 2.40 * 100g/1.30 = 184.6 g of snack mix

Therefore, the individual can consume less than 184.6 of the snack mix and still be within the FDA limit of salt consumption.

In conclusion, the FDA recommends that an individual take in less than 2.40 g of sodium per day from their diet.
