Hydrophones measure sound pressure. This helps scientists listen to and record sounds from the ocean. The statement that best describes how ocean water affects sound waves is this:   Low water pressure increases the speed of sound. The answer would be <span>high water pressure increases the speed of sound</span>

The correct answer is option D: High water pressure increases the speed of sound.

Explanation:

Density is the increase in the number of particles in a given area. Pressure increases the density. It makes the transmission of sound faster in the medium, and hence we have greater velocity. The major factor in the speed sound propagation is the density of the medium.

You work for the WWF. Write a letter to the mayor of a small farm town to explain why this town is experiencing erosion, and why
horrorfan [7]

The letter should contain concerns about the causes and ill effects of erosion.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Sir,

I am very sad to inform you that the town of Hariharanpur is suffering from continuous erosion for the last 3 years. Even after having proper knowledge about this fact, you being the mayor, are not taking any charge of this situation.

The town is situated just by the side of River Ganges which makes it's soil full of moisture. Along with the repeated deforestation and tree cutting for urbanisation, the smallest of the rain falls are also eroding a lot of soils. This can lead to severe landslides in river Ganges with severe loss of properties as well as loss of lives too.

So i request you to start embanking the river as well as to start planting new trees to save the town from getting lost under Ganges.

Thanking you,

XYZ.

Phycobiliproteins are a complex of accessory pigments and proteins found in cyanobacteria but not in green algae. A researcher c
Ksju [112]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Cyanobacteria preserve its photosynthetic pigments in the thylakoids which allows masking of green of chlorophyll a and other accessory pigment i.e phycobiliproteins (phycocyanin, allophycocyanin and phycoerythrin).  

Chlorophyll a is mainly responsible for harvesting light for photosynthesis. Phycocyanin is blue in color, allophycocyanin is blue in color  and phycoerythrine is red in color. These together harvest light in the green, yellow and orange part of the spectrum which cannot be used by other phytoplankton species

Hence, option D is correct

Answer:

Its c ,animals ,seed wings and wind

Explanation:

There are mainly 2 ways the seeds of gymnosperms are dispersed :-

  1. The gymnosperms that are old become rip and their cones open up and the seeds are dispersed by the wind.There are small seed wings present on seeds that take the seed to long distance places
  2. The fruit of the gymnosperms gets eaten by the animals in different places as its their source of food .The seeds are not digested by the animals and excreted as a result the seed is dispersed far away from the source
