Biology
1 answer:
Lubov Fominskaja [6]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

5 Facts

Explanation:

1. When it comes to chemical weathering, it’s all about chemistry. By looking at the term “chemical weathering,” you can see that a chemical reaction causes something to break down or “weather.” That “something” is rocks and minerals.

2. In chemical weathering, rocks and minerals are reacting to acids, oxygen, carbon and water. That’s why no two rocks ever look exactly the same. It’s also the reason that we have those awesome looking caves and unique rock formations all over the world.

3. While chemical weathering creates nifty formations, the way it breaks down rocks also causes fractures in ancient structures like the Great Sphinx of Egypt. It also causes the surface to break down on gravestones.

4. Chemical weathering types can work separately, but they often work together to create landforms and break down minerals.

5.  Acid rain caused by pollution such as factory and car exhaust is another agent of chemical weathering.

Which statement describes how predation and parasitism are different?
lakkis [162]
The correct answer is answer choice A, 'In predation the predator usually kills its prey, whereas in parasitism the parasite does not usually kill its host'. While parasites can occasionally kill their hosts, it is more beneficial for the parasite to keep its host alive so that it can continue surviving off of the nutrients it gathers. Answer choice B is incorrect because the prey in predator-prey relationships and the host in parasitism do not benefit. Answer choice C is incorrect because the host does not benefit in parasitism, and is often harmed by the parasite. Answer choice D is incorrect because a predator usually kills its prey, while a parasite usually does not kill its host.

Hope this helps!
