Answer 1

Answer:

A. Humus occurs in nature unaided by humans

Explanation:

got it correct in my quiz hope this helps and have a nice day :)

Answer 2

The difference between compost and humus is that humus occurs in nature unaided by humans, which is the first option, as humus is a natural organic substance that forms over a long period of time as organic matter, and compost is created by humans.

What are compost and humus?

Humus is a naturally occurring organic material that is formed through the natural decomposition of plant and animal matter over a long period of time. It is a stable form of organic matter that is resistant to further decomposition, and it can persist in soil for centuries or even millennia. Compost is a valuable soil amendment that can be used to improve soil health and fertility. Unlike humus, which is a stable form of organic matter, compost is a more dynamic material that continues to break down over time.

Hence, the difference between compost and humus is that humus occurs in nature unaided by humans, which is the first option.

How is a gas different than a liquid

Answers

Answer:

Liquids (substances that exist in the liquid state) don't have any fixed shape and occupy a fixed volume. They are slightly compressible and take the shape of their containers. Gases (substances that exist in the gaseous state) don't have any fixed shape and don't occupy any fixed volume.

A new neighborhood is built and completely destroys most of a forest. Soon, deer are walking down the sidewalks and eating plants and flowers from yards.


What is the most likely reason why this is happening?



The forest has plenty of food for them, but the deer see easier, newer food sources in the humans’ yards, so the deer are in the neighborhood because they prefer the food there.


The deer have been living close to humans and have become used to seeing them and are being curious since deer like humans.


The deer have been forced into a small area and lack enough food, so they are wandering out of their small forest home searching for food.


The light from the neighborhood has confused the deer, and so they are wandering into the streets because they are disoriented.

Answers

Answer:

I think its the 3rd answer

Explanation:

The first answer could be close but if the forest was mostly destroyed, then it would not have plenty of food for them. They also might not prefer the food there. The second option isn't correct because the deer wouldn't take their chances being around creatures (humans) that they have never seen before or didn't see that much. Also, the sound of the construction would scare them off. The fourth option isn't correct because while yes, the lights may disorient the deer, it probably wouldn't want to make the deer wander into the neighborhood. When you see a deer looking in headlights, they don't walk towards your car, they just stand there. This is why I think the 3rd answer is correct.

Answers

According to this Significant plate movements affects short-term climate, but not long-term climate.

What are the short term effects of climate change?

Higher temperatures will heat the ocean. This will result in more heat energy, which will improve the potential for tropical storms to develop.

As warming also shows more evaporation, heavy rains and snowfalls become more regular, making torrents and cyclones more intense.

Thus, Significant plate movements affect short-term climate, but not long-term climate.

For the first page: These adaptations are advantageous. For example, the dart frog’s bright colors warns predators to stay away from them. This will help them survive because they will not be bothered by any predators. Because the Hosta lives in such a crowded environment it is to its advantage that it has big leaves to get as much sunlight as possible. This makes it more likely to survive than other plants. Both of these advantages help the living thing to be stronger.
For page 2: These adaptations are advantageous. The Toucan has a long and narrow beak that helps it get fruit other birds cannot get. This gives them access to more food which can help them outlive other birds. The Monstera plant has adapted so that it does not mold. This helps it stay healthy whereas other plants may grow mold. These two organisms have adapted so that they have one sure advantage that will help them live longer than other species. The advantages are different but they both serve the same purpose.

Living things need energy
Your essay need to include;
producer
consumer
decomposer

Answers

Answer/Explanation:

∴ ║ Living Things Need Energy ║∴

The ability to obtain and use energy is one of the eight characteristics of all living things.  Scientists classify organisms based on how they get their energy: autotrophs or heterotrophs.  Organisms are divided into three main groups- the producers, the consumers and the decomposers.  

Producers get their energy from abiotic factors (non-living sources).  Most producers are plants and get their energy directly from the sun using a process called photosynthesis.  There are also some bacteria that can make their own food from chemicals using a process call chemosynthesis.  Examples of common producers are grasses, trees and flowers.  Algae (which are protists, not plants) are the main producers in aquatic ecosystems. Remember we call these autotrophs because they can make their own food.  

Consumers cannot make their own food.  Instead, they get their energy by eating other organisms.  These are also called heterotrophs.  There are many types of consumers.  Herbivores, such as grasshoppers and prairie dogs, only eat producers.  Carnivores eat animals.  Coyotes, badgers, and falcons are all carnivores.  Organisms that eat both producers and other consumers are known as omnivores.  Most humans are omnivores.  Scavengers are a special type of omnivore.  They eat dead plants and animals.  Vultures and many insects are common scavengers.  

Decomposers are a very special type of heterotroph because they get energy by breaking down dead or dying organisms.  Bacteria and fungi (mushrooms, molds and mildews) are examples of decomposers.  Decomposers are important to ecosystems because they return important nutrients such as water, carbon dioxide and nitrogen to the soil.  Plants then use these nutrients to grow, creating a cycle of nutrients through the ecosystem.        

Each of these organisms depends on the others.  Producers get energy from the sun or chemicals and then give some of this energy to consumers.  The consumers then give some of their energy to the decomposers.  Together, these organisms form a food chain.  A food chain is a series of events in which food energy is transferred from one organism to another.   All food chains have the basic structure of producer  ⇒ primary consumer  ⇒ secondary consumer ⇒ tertiary consumer  ⇒ decomposer.  There are many overlapping food chains in an ecosystem.  These overlapping food chains are known as a food web.  

As energy passes from level to the level in a food chain within a food web, the amount that each organism receives decreases.  For example, in a grassland ecosystem, the grasses get energy needed for life from the sun.  Some of this energy is used by the grass to grow and reproduce.  When a prairie dog eats the grass, it only gets 10% of the energy the grass originally had.  The prairie dog then uses some of the energy from the grass to grow and reproduce.  When a coyote eats the prairie dog, it only gets 10% of the energy the prairie dog originally had.  This decrease in energy at each level of the food chain can be represented by an energy pyramid.

Diffusion is the process of movement of both the solute and solvent. the characteristic of diffusion is that it does not require a membrane or a layer separating two parts. In diffusion particles or solutes move from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.

In the example, we can see that red particles are together in a place and after some time they get distributed evenly in the entire liquid. This process is known as diffusion as it does not require a membrane.

Please select the best answer from the choices provided

A
B
C
D

Answers

Answer:

D.

Mean: 24.8

Median: 26

Mode: 26

Explanation:

The mean is the average. To find the average, add up all the numbers and divide by the amount of numbers there are.

30 + 26 + 25 + 11 + 34 + 20 + 26 + 26 = 198

Now, we divide by how many numbers we started out with (8).

198 divided by 8 = 24.75, rounded would be 24.8

To find the median, you arrange the numbers from smallest to largest, and find the middle number like this:

11, 20, 25, 26, 26, 26, 30, 34

As you can see, the middle number is 26.

To find the mode, you arrange the number from smallest to largest, and find the number that appears more often.

11, 20, 25, 26, 26, 26, 30, 34

As you can see, the number 26 appears the most often.

So, we end up with:

Mean: 24.8

Median: 26

Mode: 26
