Answer:

the molecules are farther apart in ice than in liquid water.

Explanation:

The correct answer would be that<u> the molecules of water are farther apart in ice than in liquid water.</u>

<em>Water molecules in ice form are usually less dense than water molecules in liquid form. The water molecules in ice usually arrange themselves in a lattice form, unlike the random form in liquid water. This arrangement makes water molecules in ice to be more evenly spread out than in their liquid counterpart. Thus, ice is usually less dense than liquid water and will obey the principle of flotation by floating on water. </em>

What is any characteristics that help an animal survive
Kitty [74]
A characteristic that helps an animal survive is called an adaptation.

Let's take a frog, for example.

It has strong leg muscles to be able to jump out of the water, snatch prey, and return quickly. It has cameoflague to hide itself from predators and sometimes even poison. It has a see-through eyelid of sorts that acts like goggles to let it see underwater and still keep debris out of its eye...et cetera.

Drag each tile to the correct location on the table,
Tom [10]

Answer:

Mechanical Isolation

A snail with a flat disc-like shell

will not be able to mate with a

snail having a conical shell.

The reproductive organs of

male bush babies do not

match with the reproductive

organs of females of other

bush baby species

Behavioral Isolation

The mating call of a cricket is not

recognized by a cricket of other

species.

The signals sent by a male firefly

are not recognized by the female

firefly of other species.

Explanation:

Mechanical isolation occurs in the scenario where two organisms are willing to mate but cannot do so due to the physical challenges. As in the case of snail a flat disk and a conical disk snail are willing to mate but physical barriers restrict them in doing so.

The same case is with the male and female bush babies where the difference in reproductive organs does not allow them to mate.  

Behavioral isolation represents a scenario where two organisms are unaware of mating rituals, season, pattern or signals of each other and hence cannot mate.  

For example – male and female cricket do not recognize the mating call of each other. Likewise male and female firefly is also not able to understand each other’s mating signal.
