The behaviour of molecules in different phases of matter represents a balance between the kinetic energies of the molecules and the attractive forces between them.
All molecules are attracted to each other. At the same time, all molecules are in constant motion, and their kinetic energies increase with the temperature.
At very low temperatures, the kinetic energy of the molecules is low. The molecules cannot move fast enough to get away from the attractions of their neighbours. They are “glued” in place in a crystalline arrangement. The molecules are in the solid state.
At higher temperatures, the kinetic energy of the molecules is higher. The molecules will have enough energy to slide past their neighbours, but not enough energy to escape their attractions. The system is in the liquid state.
At very high temperatures, the kinetic energy of the molecules is so high that the molecules will be able to escape the attractions of their neighbours and move at will within the container. The system is in the gas state

Answer:

Humans and fungi have a few similarities and a few differences.

Human's and fungi have similar feeding habits.

1- They are both heterotrophic (unlike plants, algae, etc. )

This refers to the fact of generating energy by consuming elements in the ecosystems.

This means that both get energy by feeding on other organisms.

2-Humans and fungi both cannot produce their own food using photosynthesis. They are not like plants.

<span>This statement is false. When breaking down polymers into monomers, the reaction that takes place is hydrolysis. Remember when combing monomers the water is taken out dehydration, when breaking them up, you have to add a cleaved water molecule, and the breaking of water is hydrolysis.</span>

Arguments FOR GMOs? Arguments AGAINST GMOs?<br>

stich3 [128]

❤️Hello!❤️ In my opinion, i'm against GMO's. First of all you need to understand what GMO stands for, GMO means (Genetically Modified Organisms) and does that REALLY sound appealing to eat (Be honest). So now we have that covered i'm going to tell you some reasons why YOU should avoid Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO's). First of all GMO's are unhealthy, according to the American Academy of Environmental Medicine. They cite animal studies showing organ damage, gastrointestinal and immune system disorders, accelerated aging, and infertility. Second of all, GMO's contaminate forever. GMO's cross pollinate and their seeds can travel. It is impossible to fully clean up our contaminated gene pool. Self propagating GMO pollution will outlast the effects of global warming and nuclear waste. The impact is huge, threatening the health of future generations. Third of all, GMO's increase herbicide use, most GMO crops are engineered to be “Herbicide tolerant”―they deadly weed killer. Monsanto, for example, sells Roundup Ready crops, designed to survive applications of their Roundup herbicide. Between 1996 and 2008, US farmers sprayed an extra 383 million pounds of herbicide on GMO's. Overuse of Roundup results in “superweeds,” resistant to the herbicide. This is causing farmers to use even more toxic herbicides every year. ♒️ Hope this helps!♒️ ↪️ Autumn ↩️
