Biology
1 answer:
Anastaziya [24]2 years ago
5 0
The Gaia hypothesis, named after the ancient Greek goddess of the Earth, asserts that the Earth and its biological processes function as a single, massive organism. This organism has tightly controlled self-regulatory negative feedback loops that keep the planet's circumstances within life-friendly bounds.

The zinc chloride produced by the reaction is in what state
ANEK [815]

Answer: Solution in Water

Explanation:

I believe this refers to the reaction between Zinc and Hydrochloric acid.

When this happens, the solution will be Zinc Chloride but as it happened in a solution (the acid), the resulting Zinc Chloride salt would be in aqueous form which means that it would be a solution in water which is the other product of this reaction.

Had the zinc reacted with gaseous HCI, it would have resulted in a Zinc Chloride with no liquid in it.

Describe a characteristic of both an Emperor Penguin and Galapagos Penguin that evolved differently due to their different envir
nevsk [136]

Answer: The size.

Explanation: On the one hand the Emperor Penguin is bigger reaching up to 48 Inches (120cm) of height and 100 Lb in weight, on the other hand the Galápagos Penguin is much smaller. For example a large adult usually goes up to 21 Inches (53cm) and 5 Lb of weight.

This is directly related to the temperature of the environment in which each one develops, because a body exchanges heat in two dimensions through the surface. So, it's easier for a big creature to maintain core temperature stable.

This is really important in environments like the Arctic where temperature goes below zero and the opposite happen in the Equator where there is a tropical weather all the time.
