What do you think? Were zebra mussels intentionally transported to the U.S.? Explain your reason for your answer.

Biology
1 answer:
UkoKoshka [18]2 years ago
6 0

The transport of zebra mussels to the US took place involuntarily through the discharge of ballast water from European ships with contaminated cargo, in the 1980s, spreading across the Great Lakes region.

<h3 /><h3>Impacts on the environment</h3>

This freshwater mollusk can negatively impact the environment by filtering out algae that feed native species and clogging up water transport and storage systems.

Therefore, due to its high reproduction rate, zebra mussels spread rapidly and render water systems unusable, generating significant ecological and economic impacts.

Heat _____. A. is a measure of energy B.cannot move through a vacuum C. is the internal energy of matter D. is the same as tempe
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer: A. is a measure of energy

Explanation:

Heat is one of the easiest forms of energy that man can detect in your environment because we have the sensation of cold, hot, sweat, drink liquids when we feel hot, see the engine of a car heat up, take a bath of water heated by an electric shower or a boiler, etc.

Heat transfer occurs until the moment bodies reach the same temperature (thermal equilibrium). Heat is the energy transferred between a system and its surroundings because of the differences in temperatures.

Explain how carbon changes forms as it moves from one part of the carbon cycle to another
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Carbon moves from the atmosphere to plants. In the atmosphere, carbon is attached to oxygen in a gas called carbon dioxide (CO2). Through the process of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is pulled from the air to produce food made from carbon for plant growth. Carbon moves from plants to animals.
