Given the fact that we are seeing a rise in the temperature of the globe, the artic animals in that ecosystem must adapt by a reduction in the rate of metabolism.
<h3>What is global warming?</h3>
Several evidences continue to emerge that the temperature of the earth have continued to increase and this is largely due to the fact that since the turn of the twentieth century and the rise of industrialization, there have been a rise in the emission of the carbon dioxide and other green house gases into the environment. As a result of this, the temperature of the earth has continued to rise steadily leading to the melting of the ice cover and the destruction of ecosystems that are found around the artic regions of the earth.
Now, we know that an organism is able to adapt to the changes that occur in its habitat by being able to alter some of its structure and function.
Given that the organisms that live in the artic are adapted to cold regions and low temperatures, the metabolic rate of the organisms is high in order to produce heat.
As a result of the rise in global temperatures, the organisms would have to reduce their rate of metabolism.

Answer:
4.214 × 10^23 molecules.
Explanation:
Number of molecules in a substance can be calculated by multiplying the number of moles in that substance by Avagadro's number, which is 6.02 × 10^23.
That is, no. of molecule = n × Avagadro constant
In this case, there are 0.7 moles of fructose. Hence;
number of molecules = 0.7 × 6.02 × 10^23
no. of molecule = 4.214 × 10^23 molecules.
Answer:
The correct answer is "Iron and oxygen act as Fe3+ and O2− ions respectively, forming rust (Fe₂O₃) in the presence of water by the formation of an ionic bond".
Explanation:
Rust is formed when iron reacts with oxygen in the presence of water (either if the iron is submerged or exposed to moisture in the air), forming the chemical compound Fe₂O₃. The presence of water is needed for rust formation because iron and oxygen act as ions when they are exposed to water, particularly Fe3+ and O2− ions respectively. The bond formed between these two elements are ionic bonds, because it is comprised of the reaction between a metal (iron) and a non-metal (oxygen).
Answer:
pH = 9.48
Explanation:
We have first to realize that NH₃ is a weak base:
NH₃ + H₂O ⇔ NH₄⁺ + OH⁻ Kb = 1.8 x 10⁻⁵
and we are adding this weak base to a solution of NH₄NO₃ which being a salt dissociates 100 % in water.
Effectively what we have here is a buffer of a weak base and its conjugate acid. Therefore, we need the Henderson-Hasselbach formula for weak bases given by:
pOH = pKb + log ( [ conjugate acid ] / [ weak base ]
mol NH₃ = 0.139 L x 0.39 M = 0.054 mol
mol NH₄⁺ = 0.169 L x 0.19 M = 0.032 mol
Now we have all the information required to calculate the pOH ( Note that we dont have to calculate the concentrations since in the formula they are a ratio and the volume will cancel out)
pOH = -log(1.8 x 10⁻⁵) + log ( 0.032/0.054) = 4.52
pOH + pH = 14 ⇒ pH = 14 - 4.52 = 9.48
The solution is basic which agrees with NH₃ being a weak base.
