Answer:

The topmost zone near the shore of a lake or pond is the littoral zone. The near-surface open water surrounded by the littoral zone is the limnetic zone. The limnetic zone is well-lighted (like the littoral zone) and is dominated by plankton, both phytoplankton and zooplankton.

Which beverage would most likely produce intestinal gas?

Alja [10]

The correct answer is beer or soda.

Intestinal gas or air in the digestive tract usually exists as the natural consequence of swallowing and digestion. But sometimes gas can be excessive. Carbonated beverages, such as beer can increase the gas amount because of the yeast which converts the sugar in beer into CO2 and alcohol.

What must be done to breed dogs for a particular trait

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Selective breeding

Explanation:

In order to get a dog that has specific desirable trait/s, then the owners of the dogs have to get involved. The involvement should be in the manner of only allowing dogs that have the same trait to breed between each other, but in no case to be allowed to breed with other dogs that do not posses that particular trait. In this way, the offspring will inherit the desirable trait from their parents, and if the selective breeding continues, then there will be a new dog type on the scene that will be unique by its trait/s.

slide 4: On the Pacific Ocean Map what do you notice about the locations of continental places around the Pacific Ocean?

Dimas [21]

The continental places around the Pacific Ocean have lot of volcanic activity.

Explanation:

The Pacific plate is an oceanic plate. It borders several continental plates. On all sides, the Pacific plate is subducting below the other plates. The subduction zones have resulted in intense geological activity along the boundaries, which are right next to the continental edges. Along the sides of the continents that are having a boundary with the Pacific plate there are lot of volcanoes and earthquakes.

The boundary between the Pacific plate and the other plates around it makes up the Ring of Fire.
The Ring of Fire stretches mostly on the edges of the continents, surrounding the Pacific Ocean, and it is the place where most of the volcanoes on Earth are located.
The formation of volcanoes has influenced the topography of the edges of the continents, and all of them are mountainous along the coastlines.
All of the volcanic activity and the subduction result in cracking of the crust and adjustment of it, resulting in release of lot of energy, or as we know it - earthquakes.

Two balloons having the same charge of 1.2 × 10-6 coulombs each are kept 5.0 × 10-1 meters apart. What is the magnitude of the r

Pavel [41]

The answer is 5.2 × 10-2 newtons.

To calculate this, we will use Coulomb's Law:
F = $\frac{k * Q_{1} * Q_{2} }{ r^{2} }$
where F is repulcive force, k is constant, Q is charge, r is distance between charges.

If:
 $Q_{1}$ = $Q_{2}$ = 1.2 × $10^{-6}$ C²
r = 5.0 × $10^{-1}$ C²
k = 5.0 × $10^{9}$ $\frac{N*m^{2} }{ C^{2} }$

Then:
 $F = \frac{5.0* 10^{-1} \frac{N* m^{2} }{ C^{2}} * 1.2 * 10^{-6} C * 1.2 * 10^{-6} C }{(5.0* 10^{-1} m)^{2}}$
⇒ $F= \frac{9 * 1.2 * 1.2 * 10^{-3} N }{25* 10^{1} }$
⇒ $F = \frac{12.96* 10^{-2} }{25} N$
⇒ $F = 5.2 N$
