Answer:

Third option

Explanation:

The answer is the third option or "Yes, all of the food consumed by humans is plants or gets energy from plants, and plants produce their own food through photosynthesis." Photosynthesis is the process plants use to obtain their own food. Humans do depend on photosynthesis because not only humans eat plants, but animals. Some animals are herbivores which means they only eat plants. If plants cannot create their own food using photosynthesis, then the plant dies. Neither the human nor the animal can eat that plant.

Many animals rely on plants to eat and if all plants cannot perform photosynthesis, then the animals cannot eat. Us humans eat animals which means if the plants die, the animals who eat the plants die, and then humans die. Humans heavily rely on photosynthesis, so the answer is the third option.

Hope this helps.

When molten sulfur reacts with chlorine gas, a vile-smelling orange liquid forms that has an empirical formula of SCl. The struc

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The structure is shown below.

Explanation:

The formal charge (FC) is the charge that is more close to the actual charge in the real molecules and ions. It can be calculated based on the number of valence electrons (V), the shared electrons (S) and the electrons in the lone pairs (L) by the equation:

FC = V - (L + S/2)

Sulfur is in group 16 of the periodic table, so it has 6 valence electrons, and chlorine is from group 17 of the periodic table, and so it has 7 valence electrons. Chlorine can share only one electron, so it is stable. Sulfur can expand its octet (because it's from the third period) and can have more than 8 electrons when stable.

The possible formulas, from the empiric one, are:

SCl, S₂Cl₂, and S₃Cl₃.

To have FC = 0, chlorine must done only one bond, because S = 2, and L = 6, so:

FC = 7 - (6 + 2/2) = 0

So, it can not be the central atom of a structure. In the SCl, it will hav only a simple bond, so for sulfur, S = 2, and L = 4 (only the lone pairs are counted)

FC = 6 - (4+ 2/2) = +1

For S₂Cl₂, the two sulfurs must be bonded to a simple bond, and each one to one chlorine, thus, for both od them S = 4, and L = 4. so

FC = 6 - (4 + 4/2) = 0

So, it is the correct structure. The lewis structure represents the bonds by lines and the lone pairs of electrons by dots, and it is shown below.

What is technology?

ella [17]

Something created for using science for use by society. Hence, option A is correct.

<h3>What is science?</h3>

Science is the pursuit and application of knowledge and understanding of the natural and social world following a systematic methodology based on evidence.

Technology is the use of science to provide human problem. It can be in the form of a machine, tool or equipment. As long as it involves applying a scientific process, it's technology.

Example of technology is a computer. It's used to store and process data in a faster way. Old technology also included Hammer, Saw, Grinding Machines etc.

Hence, option A is correct.

Why are moral or ethical questions NOT testable? A. They are questions that are impossible to answer. B. They are better answere

Radda [10]

Answer:

C. The answers depend on people's opinions, not on observations.

Explanation:

Morals are what people think is the right or wrong behavior and the goodness or badness of a character.

Ethics are morals that govern a person.

So the answer is C because these answers cannot be seen from the outside.

For example: A PERSONALITY TRAIT is something you can't really see. A PHYSICAL TRAIT is something you can see.

Ethics and morals are like personality traits.
