Insolation is the amount of solar energy that is incident on the surface of the earth. For the same insolation, water bodies tend to absorb the most heat as water has a high heat capacity and so do grasslands. Areas such as desserts and glaciers do not absorb high amounts of insolation due to which these areas exhibit extreme, inhabitable environments. The order becomes:
The Atlantic Ocean
A marshy wetland
Nevada desert
Polar ice caps
Answer:
1) start as a carbon molecule in the atmosphere
2) taken in by trees through photosynthesis
3) carbon is taken into decayed organism
4) then it is taken into dead organisms and waste products underground
5) millions of years later, it is stored in a fossil
6) fossil fuels used by factories then emit carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere (back to starting position
if you want the whole cycle then..
7) used again by a tree
8) released as organic carbon (some)
9) tree leaf is eaten by an animal, which then releases carbon either from respiration or when it dies
Answer:
B. increasing osmotic pressure in the glomerular capillaries that reduces the amount of filtration
Explanation:
Although not specified, I am assuming that you want to identify the different variables and groups of this case. To answer this, the different typical factors that make up an experimental set up include: 1) dependent and 2) independent variables; 3) controlled variables; as well as the 4) control and 5) experimental group.
The dependent variable in this case is: the size of the population. While the independent variable is: the habitat space. Controlled variables in this experiment include: type and amount of food, cleanliness of the aquarium, and water temperature. The experimental group are simply the fish being observed. There are no controlled groups in this case depending on your definition. Controlled groups are usually the reference point or standard in experimental setups but this experiment wants to look at the differences of the goldfish with each other and not necessarily to a one particular goldfish and hence no controlled group.
The dependent variable is called as such because it is the one that changes depending on the factors given and is usually the one being observed. The independent variable is named as such because it remains the same throughout the experiment.
Answer: B. providing access to objects that are hard to find
Explanation: A specimen can be simply refered to as a sample of blood, tissue, fluid or a piece of a matter which scientist take or obtain to have a better look (study) at it in a lab.
Specimen collection is the process involved in getting or obtaining these samples for better analysis in a lab. This process help scientist get, obtain or have access to samples or objects that are not easily accessible.
Therefore Specimen collection helps scientist carry out experiment by providing access to objects that are hard to find.
