You call to a friend from a boat floating in the ocean. Which best describes the changes in the speed of the sound waves as they
Alina [70]

The correct answer is: The speed of sound is faster in the water than in the air.  

The speed of sound is different between those two mediums because they have different densities. Since, water is denser than air, more energy is required to generate a wave but once it stars, it travels faster than it would do in air. Sound waves’ travel can be presented by particles that transmit the energy one to another as they bump. The sound speed is lower in the air (than in water) because particles are far apart, so they travel further before they collide.

EastWind [94]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Based on the information given we can not say pea aphid as an autotroph. Because pea aphid ability to produce ATP in the presence of sun is due to the light-capturing pigment that it gains from the genes transferred from fungi.

As pea aphid do not have any chloroplast and it cannot fix carbon so it is not a true autotroph. We can say it false autotroph because it can produce ATP in the presence of sunlight and can show increased production of ATP at the higher level of pigment.
