Answer:
I think this would help you Sun, water, food, animals, etc.
It can be a heat insulator, which means it can trap heat in and reduce heat loss to keep us warm.
it can also protect organs, it can act as a shock absorber
Answer:
- Luis quiere saber si los cristales de yodo pueden disuelverse en distintos líquidos
- Luis necesita cristales de yodo, agua, alcohol y aceite mineral
- La hipótesis de trabajo puede ser: "los cristales de yodo se disuelven en distintos líquidos", con lo cual la hipótesis alternativa indicaría que los cristales de iodo no se disuelven
- La recopilación de los datos puede consistir en la realización de tres experimentos en los cuales los cristales de yodo son sumergidos en agua (1° experimento), alcohol (2° experimento) y aceite (3° experimento).
Explanation:
En el método científico, la pregunta científica refiere a una cuestión particular la cual es planteada con el objetivo de responder algún aspecto particular del mundo real. A partir del planteamiento de una pregunta científica es posible formular dos hipotésis denominadas hipotésis nula e hipótesis alternativa, las cuales representan supocisiones contrapuestas que permiten contestar dicha cuestión. Subsecuentemente, los científicos realizan experimentos y/o observaciones que permiten recopilar datos cuyos resultados son utilizados para confirmar (o rechazar) la hipótesis nula. Por otra parte, es necesario resaltar que durante el proceso de experimentación se requiere de la utilización de controles positivos y negativos que permitirán corroborar si dichos experimentos fueron realizados correctamente.
Answer:
1. Protect biodiversity
2. An indicator species
3. Biomagnification
4. Cutting down all the trees for lumber
5. Bioaccumulation
Explanation:
1. Conserving areas such as rain forests protect biodiversity because rain forests hold one of the highest biodiversity. They carry different types of resources that support different forms of life and at the same time, the organisms that live there support each other as well.
2. An indicator species is an organism that scientists can observe to see if there are changes in the environment it lives in. They judge the change or the implications based on the absence of the species in the environment (in which they used to be present), the presence of the species, and markers of adaptation due to the change in the ecosystem.
3. Biomagnification is a term used when contaminants that were consumed by the organisms in the lower trophic level are passed on to the next trophic level in higher concentrations. This is why those in the highest trophic levels are affected the most because they get the higher concentration of contaminants. DDT was banned when this phenomena was observed.
4. The greatest decrease in rain forest stability would be due to the cutting of trees. We can disrupt stability by gathering resources like nuts from some trees or when you remove one species of plant for medicine. However, the trees are an essential part of the rain forest because each part or area of the tree support different organisms. By cutting the whole trees off and several of them, you doom the organisms that rely on them as well.
5. As mentioned above, bioaccumulation is often interchanged with biomagnification but they differ in the usage of the terms. Like biomagnification, it talks about the accumulation of contaminants in organisms that ingest or absorb them. But bioaccumulation is a term used in a smaller scale, where it talks about the accumulation of the contimants in the tissues of the organism and not how they are passed on.
