A dichotomous key helps you identify unknown specimens based on their traits because there are only two options available per trait. Selecting one from the two options (usually contrasting characteristics) from each step leads to smaller and smaller groups until the option is reduced to single and unique trait of an organism.
Considering you need to identify an organism. So, on the top of they key is animal with options: (a) with red blood cells and (b) no red blood cells. The option you will select is no red blood cells and under option b, you’re given two choices again: (a) hard bodies and (b) soft bodies. You’ll select soft bodies, then two options again are given: (a) with shell and (b) without shell. The option you’ll select would be without shell, and so on.
Answer:
The correct answer is option A, the type of isotope
Explanation:
The half life of a radioactive substance is a constant value and thus it is not affected by the temperature, catalyst or mass of the substance. Basically it is the time taken by a radioactive substance to reduce its mass by half of its actual value. Radioactive decay takes place only when the atomic nucleus becomes unstable and thus the isotope type is the only factor which affects the radioactive decay of any element.
Answer:
The sun's thermal energy causes water on the earth to evaporate. The water vapor then condenses and forms precipitation. The precipitation then falls back to the surface of the earth.
Explanation:
<u>The water cycle is an illustration of how water continuously moves or circulates between the atmosphere and the various parts of the earth. </u>
<em>Evaporation of water from the surface of the earth by the thermal energy from the sun causes water to leave the surface of the earth into the atmosphere. When the atmospheric water vapor (humidity) at the upper strata of the atmosphere becomes high, the vapor condenses to form clouds which later forms precipitation that falls back to the surface of the earth.</em>
The ocean's tidal energy does not cause water to cycle on earth.
Plants manufacture glucose during photosynthesis. Which would be the process that plans use to make food using sunlight.
