Answer:

72 kilometers per hour = 20 meters per second

Explanation:

Speed of tuna, v = 72 km/hr

We need to find Tuna's speed in meters per second. To convert km/hr to m/s we must use the following conversions as :

1\ km=1000\ m

And, 1\ h=3600\ s

72\ km=72000\ m

Speed=\dfrac{72\ km}{1\ h}=\dfrac{72000\ m}{3600\ s}

Speed = 20 m/s

So, Tuna's is travelling with a speed of 20 meters per second. Hence, this is the required solution.

kogti [31]

Answer: Survival rate up to start of April = 76.67%

Explanation: size of colony = 150mice.

Size of colony in February =125mice.

Size of colony in march = 115 mice.

1. Survivorship rate in February

= Size of colony / size in February *100.

= 122 / 150 * 100

= 83.33% to the nearest hundredth

2. Survivorship rate in march

= Size of colony / size in march *100.

= 115/150 * 100

= 76.67% to the nearest hundredth.

The increase in the concentration of contaminants in the tissues of animals high on the food chain is termed which of the follow
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

(A) Bioaccumulation

Explanation:

When the concentration of certain substances in the bodies of the organisms of various trophic levels keeps on increasing as they pass through the food chain, the process is called bioaccumulation or biomagnification.

Most of the organic non-biodegradable pollutants/chemicals exhibit bioaccumulation. Being insoluble in water, these chemicals are accumulated in the fat tissues of the organisms.

As the predator feeds on the prey having a non-biodegradable chemical in its tissues, the chemical enters the body of the predator.

As these chemicals pass through the food chain, there is a gradual increase in their concentration stored in the living tissues of the organisms. Therefore, the top consumers exhibit maximum bioaccumulation of contaminants in a food chain.

Which of the following scenarios would be most likely to cause a weak point in the aorta to rupture, and why? (2 points)
REY [17]
<span>I believe the answer is,

High systolic, because when the heart pumps, the pressure inside the aorta would be greatest, causing the weak spot to rupture outward.

This indicates high blood pressure that causes rupture of the aorta or aorta dissection.</span>
