Does temperature appear to have been relevant to the amount of oxygen consumed?

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

At a thermoneutral ambient temperature, cooling either thermode increased oxygen consumption. In a cold environment, cooling either thermode increased the rate of oxygen consumption more than at a thermoneutral temperature. Heating either thermode tended to decrease oxygen consumption in a cold environment. 3.

sweet [91]

The patient has brain damage in the sensory cortex.

The nurse tested if he was able to recognize writing on the skin just by the sensation of touch.That ability is called Graphesthesia and a patient with damage in the sensory cortex has impaired sensory perception and thus will not be able to identify the number traced.

A researcher discovers a new prokaryote that lives on the seafloor near hydrothermal vents. This organism reduces CO2 to form C6

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

D. Chemoautotrophs

Explanation:

Autotrophs in plain are organisms that synthesize their own food while hetrotrophs are organisms that do not synthesize their own food.

Chemotrophs (Chemoautotrophs and Chemohetrotrophs) are a group of organisms that obtain their energy through the oxidation of inorganic molecules, These organisms require carbon to survive and reproduce.

Chemoautotrophs are able to produce inorganic molecules by the fixation of CO2 from their immediate environment. The energy required for this process is got from Nitrogen, Magnesium, Sulphur etc.

Chemohetrotrophs are a class of chemotrophs that are unable to synthesize their own food but rather ingest complex molecules like carbohydrates from the environment.

Phototrophs are a group of organisms unlike chemotrophs that depend on the source of light or sunlight for synthesizing its food or organic molecules.

Photoautotrophs are basically photosynthetic plants which are able to carry out photosynthesis ie the conversion of CO2 and H2O to give Glucose and Oxygen in the presence of sunlight.

Photohetrotrophs are a class of organisms that do not synthesize their own food but rely on other organisms or already made organic molecules.

3. How does the salinity in water change as you move from inland areas out towards the ocean? Be sure to include the phrase "bra

Len [333]

Answer:

Explanation below.

Explanation:

3. The salinity of water increases as the water moves from the inland area to the ocean. This is because the ocean has high salinity.

Salinity is the amount or concentration of salt in the water.

WAYS BY WHICH ESTUARIES PROTECT THE INLAND AREAS

1. The plant in estuaries prevent shoreline erosion.

2. Protect the inland areas from flooding.

3. Protect the inland areas from storm surges from hurricane.

IMPORTANCE OF ESTUARIES TO INLAND PEOPLE AND WILDLIFE.

1. They provide nesting and feeding habits for many aquatic plants and animals.

2. Provide goals and services that are economically and ecologically indispensable.

3. Prevent shoreline erosion

4. Protect the inland areas from flooding.

IMPACTS OF DREDGING ON FISH LIVING ESTUARIES.

Dredging have negative impacts on the organisms in estuaries. These are

1. Habitat degradation

2. Remobilization of contaminants

3. Increase rate of sedimentation.

4. Increased the concentration of suspended matter.
