Answer:

C. (last one)

Explanation:

There is a lot of heavy superstition surrounding the ingestion of genetically modified foods and some people believe that consuming foods modified by different DNA can effect their own. However, this is scientifically impossible as a person's DNA is not something that can be modified by anything as you are born with it and your DNA makes up your entire body. Almost every cell in your body contains at least some DNA, meaning that to modify it, every single cell in your body would have to change

there are 3 ways that thermal energy can be transferred below write a paragraph describing each one with an example
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Thermal energy can be transferred by conduction, convection or radiation

Explanation:

Thermal energy is the energy that flows from one point to another due to temperature differences between the points. There are three ways by which thermal energy is transferred which are conduction, convection and radiation.

In conduction, thermal energy is transferred in solids usually metals due to their good heat conductivity. An example is seen in the use of metals for preparing meals. Heat (or thermal energy) is transferred from the fire to the metal to the food.

Convection occurs in fluids (liquids and gases). It usually occurs in a cyclic manner. For example in heating water, thermal energy is gained by water molecules closest to the heat source (at the base of the container) and become lighter causing them to rise to the top. The molecules at the top become denser and sink to the bottom whereby they gain energy and rise in a similar manner. This repeated phenomenon occurs in a cyclic form whereby there's displacement of colder and denser molecules by warmer and lighter molecules. Another example is the occurrence of sea and land breezes.

Radiation occurs without the need of any material medium unlike conduction and convection. In radiation, heat is directly transferred from one point to the other without being transferred by molecules. This is seen in how thermal energy from the sun reaches the earth. In other words, heat is transferred in a vacuum

Use scientific reasoning and the food web to explain why, in general, it makes sense that the lion population is taking longer t
White raven [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Herbivores are able to come back easily when they are search for food because their are more than enough food for them to prey on while in lion population, their main feed also take longer period to be produced since they also feed on animal that take time to give birth such as zebras, so they go for other smaller organisms such as waterbucks which take them more time to be completely feeds on to gain required energy.
