There are 450 calories in 100 g of trail mix. If you burn 30 calories in 10 minutes of walking, how much trail mix should you eat to replenish the energy you spend walking for 2 hours?

Answers

Answer:

to replenish the energy spent walking for 2 hours, 80g of trail mix should be eaten

Explanation:

Firstly, let us calculate the number of calories burnt in 2 hours

in 10 minutes; 30 calories are burnt

∴ in 1 minute 30/10  calories are burnt = 3 calories are burnt

2 hours = 120 minute

∴ in 120 minutes 3 × 120 = 360 calories are burnt.

Next, let us calculate the amount of trail mix that contains 360 calories

100g of trail mix = 450 calories

450 calories = 100 g

1 calory = 100/450

∴ 360 calories = 360 × (100/450)

=  360 × 0.222 = 80g

∴ to replenish the energy spent walking for 2 hours, 80g of trail mix should be eaten

4.
greater radiation from the warmer ocean during the day and from the warmer land at night
Submit Answer

Answers

Answer:

3. convection resulting from temperature and pressure differences above land and water

Explanation:

Due to the the difference between the ability of land and to water to absorb and radiate heat energy, the land gets heated up by the sun more quickly than water during the hot afternoons. As a result, the air above the land surface gets heated up more quickly than that above water. Warm air being less dense than cold air will rise above to atmosphere creating a low pressure area on land. On the other hand, air above water is not heated up as quickly, thus the dense cooler air over water will rush in and replace the warm air that has risen above the land surface.

At night, the land cools off more easily than water, hence the air above the land surface is cooler. On the other, water does not lose heat as quickly as the land, hence the air above the water surface is warmer than that over land. Warm air over the water surface will rise above, while colder air from land will replace it.

How do mountains affect the climate of a region?

(giving brainlist)

Answers

On the windward sides of mountain ranges, they raise precipitation. When they move toward land, they cause cold, moist air from the oceans to rise. On the leeward sides of mountain ranges, they reduce precipitation totals.

(Hope this helps!!!) Can I pls have a brainliest??

Answer:

As context, there are two sides of a mountain range:

A) The windward side

B) The leeward side

As mountains are tall, they block clouds which are in the troposphere. All the moisture thus falls onto the windward side, while almost none of the moisture from the rain gets to the leeward side.

In a nutshell, mountain ranges create barriers for precipitation which blocks off moisture to the leeward side, creating deserts.

This is why you see mountain ranges near deserts.

Answers

The answers are the following:
-Rust
- yellow mosaic
- blight
-Stalk rot

—Evidence—
•] Rusts are plant diseases caused by pathogenic fungi of the order Pucciniales.

•] Wheat yellow mosaic (usually called wheat spindle streak mosaic) is caused by a soilborne virus which also is transmitted by the soilborne fungus, Polymyxa graminis.

•] Blight spreads by fungal spores that are carried by insects, wind, water and animals from infected plants, and then deposited on soil. The disease requires moisture to progress, so when dew or rain comes in contact with fungal spores in the soil, they reproduce.

•] Fusarium stalk rot, primarily caused by the fungus Fusarium verticilliodes, is a common disease in the Midwest. This fungus also causes Fusarium ear rot and can infect roots, stalks, and leaf nodes. It is most common in hot, dry years.

Evolution means change in the physical features of an organism.

Explanation:

Evolution means change in the physical features of an organism. Evolution occurs in the population of an organisms due to various factors such as mutation, non-random mating and natural selection. Nonrandom mating occurs when an organism prefer mating with particular superior organisms or with the similar organism. Mutation in the genetic makeup of an organism is also responsible evolution. this mutation occurs when an organism experience ultraviolet radiation from the sun, or also occur if an error in DNA during cell division. Gene flow is also known as gene migration is the transfer of genetic material or traits from one population to another when the organism is migrated to another environment. Some organisms are selected naturally because they have the potential to survive in that environment so they survive and that doesn't adopt itself to the environment, it will extinct from the environment.
