Answer:

<h3>7 milliliters or 7 cubic centimeters</h3>

Explanation:

1 cubic centimeter = 1 milliliter

You can measure the volume of a rock using cubic centimeters because rocks do not have a defined shaped so you have to use water displacement to find the volume of a rock. If you had a defined shape there are different methods but for an undefined shape( rocks) you use this method.

To solve all you have to do is know how much there was in the container without the rock then how much there was with the rock. Then you take the total and subtract the original measurement you had.

17-10=7 mL or 7 cubic centimeters

List the ocean regions that have the highest sea surface salinity
AlladinOne [14]

<u>Answer</u>:

The high sea surface salinity can be observed in the Pacific Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Arabic ocean and the Mediterranean sea.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Due to rainfall and evaporation of water from sea the density varies with varying salts and minerals concentration that aggregate at the surface. The salinity in the seawater varies according to the amount of evaporation from a particular area.

Low salinity water is found in polar and subpolar regions that are near to the equator. Regions of high salinity are observed in the seawater which is centered around 30 degrees north and 30 degrees south to the equator due to the excess evaporation in these areas.

Which would most likely happen if a cell undergoes mitosis, but not cytokinesis?

Members of the tropical tree genus Ceiba currently grow in the rainforests of the Amazon. A paleontologist discovers several fos
Naya [18.7K]

Complete question:

Members of the tropical tree genus Ceiba currently grow in the rainforests of the Amazon. A paleontologist discovers several fossils that she attributes to this genus in the Pampas region of Argentina. This region is not currently covered with tropical rainforests. She concludes based on these fossils that this region of Argentina was covered with tropical rainforests in the past. This form of reasoning is known as:

A.  

Deduction.

B.  

Induction.

C.  

Abduction.

D.  

A random guess.

Answer:

This form of reasoning is known as Deduction (Option A)

Explanation:

Induction: Might be defined as a process of initiation in something, such as a religion, a new job, a new activity, a new curse, etc.    

Abduction: Refers to the illegal act of taking someone somewhere by obligation or by force, against the person´s will. Also refers to the body´s extremities movement.  

A random guess: Refers to a random conjecture about something, with no basis or fundaments.

Deduction: The fact of answering a question or reaching a conclusion based on evidence or fundaments. Usually after a process of investigation or study, and knowing the facts.

The exposed situation is an example of a deduction made by the researcher. She bases her conclusion on the fact that Pampa´s fossils might be of the same genus as Amazonia´s trees, which means that in Argentina the environmental and climatic conditions were comparable to those in current Amazonia. Also, as a paleontologist, she must know about the biogeographic processes that modeled the earth and living beings. Her conclusions are not random. She has bases and fundaments to conclude that Argentina was once covered with tropical rainforests in the past.
