What is the role of the sun and gravity in the water cycle?

Biology
1 answer:
jok3333 [9.3K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The sun is what makes the water cycle work. Heat causes a liquid and frozen water to evaporate into water vapour gas, which rises high in the sky, to form clouds.

Gravity pulls denser air and water downward, forcing less dense air and water to move upward. The warm water near the surface of the ocean heats up with sunlight and evaporates, keeping the water cycle in motion.

Hope this helps.

Komok [63]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

Random distribution of the Isopods should be 50/50 in A and B.

Chi-square = \frac{(O - E)^2}{E} where O = observed frequency and E = expected frequency

Chamber         O                    E             Chi-square

  A                   18                   10             \frac{(18 - 10)^2}{10} = 6.4

  B                    2                    10             \frac{(2 - 10)^2}{10} = 6.4

<em>Total Chi-square </em>= 6.4 + 6.4 = 12.8

<em>Degree of freedom</em> = 2 - 1 = 1

<em>Tabulated Chi-square</em> (α = 0.05) = 3.8415

The calculated Chi-square exceeds the critical value, hence, it is significant and not due to random.

<em>The correct option is </em><em>c</em><em>.</em>

How are landslides and mudflows similar and different?
Anna [14]
Landslide is a general term referring to all types of surface movement, like avalanches involving the mass movement downhill of soil, rock, or snow under the action of gravity. These can be dangerous to human life.
Mudslides are caused unusually heavy rain or sudden thaw. they consist of mostly mud and water with fragments of rock and other debris. They're capable of moving house off of their foundations and can bury a place within minutes.

Luden [163]
The correct answer is the final option - sickle cell disease and malaria are both potentially lethal diseases. 
The other options are incorrect because sickle cell disease is an inherited disease, but malaria is not - it is an infectious disease. However, both of these disease are quite dangerous, and may have severe consequences (such as death) if they are not properly treated.

Why does net productivity diminish with increasing trophic levels??
geniusboy [140]
Due to the bad trophic efficiency transfer, there is a loss in the consumption of most energy to cellular respiration at trophic levels. It also loses energy to heat, metabolism and other subsistence for biomass production. There is a higher energy loss when it is at higher trophic levels.
