Answers
Answer:
mechanical weathering breaks rocks into smaller forms without any change in their composition whereas chemical weathering breaks down rocks by forming new minerals .
or simply mechanical weathering is the physical breakdown of rocks while chemical weathering is the breakdown of rocks through chemical reactions .
This is the right answer it was a question on my test and i got it right

The following table shows the distance from the sun of some unknown planets of equal mass.
W 1.5 AU
X 0.723 AU
Which of the following best explains which planet revolves at a faster speed?
A.) Planet X, because the sun pulls it with a greater force.
B.) Planet W, because the sun pulls it with a greater force.
C.) Planet W, because the gravitational force is weakened by distance.
D.) Planet X, because the gravitational force is strengthened by distance.
Answers
Answer:
Option D.) Planet X, because the gravitational force is strengthened by distance.
Explanation:
As we know from Kepler's law , the planets that are closer to the sun move at a faster rate in comparison to those planets that are far because of high gravitational force.
According to the question,
both planets have equal mass. Plant W is at 1.5 AU and planet X is at 0.723 AU distance from the sun.
So, planet X revolves at a faster speed because it's shorter distance from the sum as comparison to planet W, strengthened the gravitational field.
Thus, Option D is the correct answer.

Disease can reduce the size of a population quickly.
The amount of resources, such as food and water, limit how many pikas can survive.
The presence of predators limits how large the population can grow.
As the population grows, the pikas compete with each other for resources.
The amount and types of space avalible in an environment mean only a certain number of pikas can make homes.

b. when the student presses down on one side of the lever to cause it to move
c. when the rock rests on the ground without the lever
d. when the rock rests above the ground
Answers
Answer:B
Explanation: I know this because kinetic energy is when something is moving and potential energy is when something is not moving and the energy is being stored so it has you are pushing on the other side moving the object it is transforming the potential energy also known as stored energy into movement also known as kinetic energy

Living and nonliving things are both found within the same ecosystem. The living things require the non living things for survival.
Limiting Factors
Environmental factors, such as the amount of water, food, sunlight and temperature available, are limiting factors for a population.
A limiting factor is sometimes that restricts the size of a population. Limiting factors might affect the number of individuals in the ecosystem can support.
The amount of space affects a population’s size.
Available water, food, sunlight and temperature are all limiting factors.
Space is also a limiting factor.
If there are too few resources, populations may migrate to new areas.
Answer:
- The amount of space affects a population's size.
- Available water, food, sunlight and temperature are limiting factors
- Space is also a limiting factor.

4. What would most likely be the result of an invasive species entering an ecosystem?
5. Why are humans responsible for many invasive species?
Answers
#4: An ecosystem is a geographic area where plants, animals, and other organisms, as well as weather and landscape, work together to form a bubble of life. Ecosystems contain biotic or living, parts, as well as abiotic factors, or nonliving parts
#5: It is not surprising that human population density is a leading cause of species invasions. Species are easily moved by human and animal (particularly domestic animal) vectors, and increasing populations residing next to protected areas simply means increasing the odds of species introduction
