Answer:
1. an eclipse of the Sun
2. state (phase) of matter
3. 5.0 g/cm3
Explanation:
1. Eclipse of the sun occurs when the planetary bodies align in such a way that causes the moon to block sunlight from reaching the Earth. The eclipse of the Sun will be the most predictable occurrence because it follows a pattern of occurrence. Eclipse of the sun occurs after a specific period of time, hence, based on this, scientists can predict that when it will occur next using its previous pattern of occurrence.
2. Considering the following groups: Group A: water, aluminum, water vapor
Group B: gasoline, ice, air
Group C: alcohol, iron, oxygen
One would realize that each constituent of each group exists in a particular state of matter. For example, in group B, gasoline is a liquid, ice is a solid while air is a gaseous mixture. Same applies for group A and C where water and alcohol are liquids, iron and aluminum are solids, while water vapor and oxygen are gases.
This shows that the STATE (PHASE) OF MATTER was the basis of classification.
3.
Why did early scientists believe that plants were fundamentally different than animals?
<span>Scientists did not know animals had cells too.</span>
Because hormones secreted by endocrine glands regulate the activity of body cells ..the release of body hormones into the blood is controlled by a stimulus either causes an increase or a decrease in the amount of hormone secreted .
