Both natural processes and human activity are causing some of Earth's permanent bodies of ice to melt. If enough of this ice melts, it will add warm freshwater to the northern Atlantic Ocean, where deep water currents start. What effect is this likely to have

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

EFFECTS - : Melting glaciers and icebergs release fresh water and reduce the salinity of the surrounding sea. The seawater also becomes less dense, changing patterns of ocean currents.

Explanation -

MELTING OF ICE AND ADDING WARM FRESH WATER TO NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN -:  As part of the thermohaline circulation (also called the Global Ocean Conveyor), seawater flows through the Atlantic, the normal pattern by which seawater passes to the oceans of the world. Due to variations in water density caused by differences in temperature and salinity, the water in the Global Ocean Conveyor circulates. Colder water is denser than colder water, while salter water is denser than fresh water or less salty water.

Water heated at the Equator flows north to cold high latitudes at the surface of the ocean, where it becomes colder. When it cools, the deep ocean becomes denser and sinks. To take its place, more warm surface water flows in, cools, sinks, and the pattern continues. But this trend may be modified by melting Arctic sea ice.

The influx of freshwater from the melting ice makes seawater less salty and thus less thick at high latitudes as the Planet begins to warm and Arctic sea ice melts. In reality, data shows that over the past few decades, the North Atlantic has already become fresher.

An organism that breaks down organic matter into simpler materials (like carbon dioxide) is called a decomposer. Decomposers absorb nutrients from living things or the organic matter they leave behind. They do not need to kill to get their food. Do your results suggest bears are decomposers? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

No, bears are consumers

Explanation:

Both decomposers and consumers are heterotrophic organisms, i.e., they cannot produce their own food. There are four different classes of heterotrophic organisms: decomposers, herbivores, carnivores and omnivores. The decomposers are heterotrophic organisms that return nutrients to the soil from the organisms that break down. Moreover, bears are classified as omnivores (consumers) that need to kill to get their food. These animals obtain nutrients and energy from both plant and animal sources.

During the development of human offspring, the fetus begins to hear and see that is in the first option as the fetus is the stage of human development that occurs after the embryonic stage.

What is a fetus?

During this fetal stage, the structures that began to form during the embryonic stage continue to grow and develop, and the fetus begins to hear and see during this stage, as the ears and eyes are formed and become functional, and it also develops many other organs and systems during this stage, including the respiratory, digestive, etc. As a result, the fetus is the stage at which more complex structures develop, and it later develops into the fully mature baby.

As a result, the fetus begins to hear and see during the development of human offspring, which is in the first option because the fetus is the stage of human development that occurs after the embryonic stage.

A certain chocolate bar contains 6 mg of caffeine in a 1.5 oz. Serving. The king-size version of the chocolate bar is 85 grams. How much caffeine, in mg, would you consume if you eat the entire king-size bar?Fill in the answer in the blank provided. Mg of caffeine

Answers

Answer:

The amount of caffeine that would be consumed if one eats the entire king-size bar will be 11.99 mg

Explanation:

This question can be reframed in the manner below for better understanding.

If 1.5 oz or ounce of a chocolate bar contains 6 mg of caffeine, how many milligrams (mg) of caffeine is contained in 85 grams of the same chocolate bar.

Firstly, the ounce should be converted to grams

If 1 ounce = 28.35g

1.5 ounce = ?

= 1.5 × 28.35/1

=42.53g

Hence, 42.53g of the chocolate bar contains 6 mg of caffeine

85g of the chocolate will contain

42.53g = 6mg

85g = X

where X is the amount of caffeine that will be consumed in mg

X = 85 × 6/42.53

X = 11.99 mg

The amount of caffeine that would be consumed if one eats the entire king-size bar will be 11.99 mg

How does cognition and biology influence learning?

Answers

GREETINGS!

Both Cognition and biology plays role in Conditioning and Learning

Cognitive aspects of learning refer to thinking processes and mental procedures involved in the learning process. Cognitive factors that influence learning range from basic learning processes, such as memorizing facts or information, to higher-level processes, such as understanding, application, analysis and evaluation.

Biological factors also play important role for example Aversion to a particular taste is conditioned only by pairing the taste (a conditioned stimulus) with nausea (an unconditioned stimulus). Generally, taste aversion is developed after ingestion of food that causes nausea, sickness, or vomiting. If taste is paired with other unconditioned stimuli, conditioning doesn’t occur. Another example is Instinctive drift or Instinctual drift. Any behavior is instinctive if it is performed without being based upon prior experience (that is, in the absence of learning), and is therefore an expression of innate biological factors.

. If a suggested daily protein consumption of .8 grams / Kg. Body weight is recommended, how many protein Kcals would be represented in the diet of a 220 lb. Individual with no suggested health concerns or limitations? (Kgs. = lbs. / 2.2 ; The caloric density of protein is 4 Kcals / gm.)

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer would be - 320 kcal.

Explanation:

Given:

Required protein amount is - .8 grams/kg

kg = lbs/2.2

weight = 220

then, weight in kg = 220/2.2 = 100 kg

solution :

requied amount of protein in normal individual:

= 100* 0.8

= 80 grams.

Now kcal by this amount of protein would be :

= 80*4

= 320 Kcal

Thus, the correct answer would be - 320 kcal.

The amount of protein Kcals in the individual's diet would be 320 Kcals.

The recommended daily protein consumption = 0.8grams / Kg body weight

The body weight of the individual is given as 220 lbs.

The weight of the individual would need to be converted to Kg.

Conversion factor between Kg and lbs is given as: 1 Kg = 2.2 lbs

The weight of the individual in Kg  = 220 lbs * 1 kg /2.2 lbs ) = 100 kg

Amount of recommended protein intake of the individual based on body weight will be: 0.8 grams/ Kg * 100 Kg  = 80 grams

Caloric density of protein per gram = 4 Kcals / gram

Therefore, protein Kcals in the individual's diet will be 4 Kcals / gram * 80 grams = 320 Kcals

The amount of protein Kcals in the individual's diet would be 320 Kcals.
