If you put a lump of solid carbon dioxide (dry ice) in a paper cup or
on a paper plate on the kitchen counter, it gets smaller and smaller
and finally it just disappears, but you never see a puddle around it
like you would with regular ice!
Carbon dioxide has no liquid phase when the pressure on it is less than
about 5 times normal atmospheric pressure. So in the kind of pressure
that we like to live in, dry ice goes straight to gas when it melts. That kind
of behavior is called "sublimation", and we say that the dry ice "sublimes".
Every substance has some pressure limit like that. For water, it's 0.006 of
normal atmospheric pressure. At any pressure lower than that, liquid water
can't exist, and an ice cube sublimes ... it melts directly into water vapor
without a puddle.
Plants are very crucial for maintenance of balance of ecosytem as part of the equilibrium and the primary basis for the ecosystem as the producers.
Explanation:
The ecosystem consists of plants with animals and the environment surrounding it. The balance of all three elements is essential for the co existence of the ecosystem. devoid of any or excess of either factor will lead to destruction.
The imbalance so caused will lead to over production or over consumption of the strata in the ecosystem. Plants holds the producer level of the ecosystem which forms the basis to all, if dis-balanced all the factors relying on it will decline eventually and the world will fall.
Meiotic chromosome and chromatid segregation
Chromosome segregation occurs at two separate stages during meiosis called anaphase I and anaphase II (see meiosis diagram). In a diploid cell there are two sets of homologous chromosomes of different parental origin
The correct answer is second-degree burn.
There are three types of burns based on the severity of damage to the skin:
• First-manifested by red, nonblistered skin
• Second-characterized by blisters and thickening of the skin
• Third-degree-thickness with a white, leathery appearance.
