Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Yes, the statement is right because in chemical war, great damage occurs to all living organisms that has a bad effect on our environment. These chemicals are very dangerous so its usage in the war has long term effects on the environment and the organisms that live in it. Both the opponents receive great damage from this chemical war and the destruction of the natural beauty of the place vanished where this war occurs so this vanished of beauty and organisms is the defeat of both the opponents that fought this war.

How do cricket communicate temperature and reactions and body parts allow them to do this?
aleksley [76]

Answer:

as temperature rises, mussles in a crickets body contract more, causing it to chirp more often

Explanation:Crickets, like all living things, have many chemical reactions going on inside their bodies, such as reactions that allow muscles to contract to produce chirping. Crickets, like all insects, are cold-blooded and take on the temperature of their surroundings. This affects how quickly these chemical muscle reactions can occur. Specifically, a formula called the Arrhenius equation describes the activation, or threshold, energy required to make these reactions occur. As the temperature rises, it becomes easier to reach a certain activation energy, thereby allowing chemical reactions, such as the ones that allow a cricket to chirp, to occur more rapidly.
