Wittaler [7]2 years ago
7 0

The ecosystem services provided by the each of the given examples are as follows:

  • A cornfield in Kansas provides provisioning services.
  • Bacteria that decompose waste along the Gulf Coast provides regulating services.
  • Ocean currents that keep Pacific Northwest air cool and moist provides regulating services.
  • Flower garden at a national landmark provides cultural services.
  • Lumber from an oak tree provides provisioning services.
  • Animals that eat seeds and then spread the seeds through their waste regulating services.

<h3>Ecosystem services</h3>

Ecosystem services are defined as the benefits derived by man from the surroundings ecosystems.

<h3>Categories of ecosystem services</h3>

The four categories of ecosystem services are:

  • regulating services,
  • provisioning services,
  • cultural services, and
  • supporting services

A cornfield in Kansas provides provisioning services.

Bacteria that decompose waste along the Gulf Coast provides regulating services.

Ocean currents that keep Pacific Northwest air cool and moist provides regulating services.

Flower garden at a national landmark provides cultural services.

Lumber from an oak tree provides provisioning services.

Animals that eat seeds and then spread the seeds through their waste regulating services.

Magnesium (average atomic mass = 24.3050 amu) consists of three isotopes with masses 23.9850 amu, 24.9858 amu, and 25.9826 amu.
iris [78.8K]

Answer: The first isotope has a relative abundance of 79% and last isotope has a relative abundance of 11%

Explanation: Given that the average atomic mass(M) of magnesium

= 24.3050amu

Mass of first isotope (M1) = 23.9850amu

Mass of middle isotope (M2)=24.9858amu

Mass of last isotope(M3)= 25.9826amu

Total abundance = 1

Abundance of middle isotope = 0.10

Let abundance of first and last isotope be x and y respectively.

x+0.10+y =1

x = 0.90-y

M = M1 × % abundance of first isotope + M2 × % of middle isotope +M3 ×% of last isotope

24.03050= 23.985× x + 24.9858 ×0.10 + 25.9826×y

Substitute x= 0.90-y

Then

y = 0.11

Since y=0.11, then

x= 0.90-0.11

x=0.79

Therefore the relative abundance of the first isotope = 11% and the relative abundance of the last isotope = 79%

Landfills are one source of CO2. As garbage decomposes, it releases CO2 into the air. Can you think of at least
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Recycling and reuse of materials

Explanation:

One of the greatest problems facing the human population is the problem of solid waste disposal. The menace of solid waste disposal has led to the idea of landfills. Land fills are depressions on the earth surface prepared for the purpose of solid waste disposal.

The most important approach towards solid waste disposal is the idea of recycling of materials. A material can be collected after use and processed into the same material or serve as a precursor in another manufacturing process. This means that no waste is generated as the materials which are supposed to be disposed of as solid waste are processed into other useful materials. This will reduce the volume of solid wastes generated that may need to be disposed in a landfill.

Develop a model to show the chemical potential energy of wood and how that energy is transformed.
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Explanation:

Chemical potential energy is the chemical energy stored (or property) of a substance. One chemical potential energy of wood is combustion. Combustion involves the burning of a substance in excess oxygen (in this case open air). <u>The chemical energy stored here is transformed to thermal/heat energy after combustion due to the large amount of heat evolved/produced</u>.

NOTE:

The model above also that combustion is an exothermic reaction because it involves the release of heat into it's surrounding.
