-40°F is how many °C?
\({40 \over 9}\) |
|
\(-{40 \over 9}\) |
|
-8 |
|
-40 |
The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-40 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-72) = {{-72 \times 5} \over 9}\)
\(C° = {-360 \over 9}\)
\(C° = -40\)
The first step in the water cycle is:
precipitation |
|
infiltration |
|
reclamation |
|
evaporation |
The water (hydrologic) cycle describes the movement of water from Earth through the atmosphere and back to Earth. The cycle starts when water evaporates into a gas from bodies of water like rivers, lakes and oceans or transpirates from the leaves of plants.
When the clouds become too saturated with water, the water is released as precipitation in the form of:
ice |
|
rain |
|
snow or ice |
|
snow |
Rising into the atmosphere, the water condenses into clouds. When the clouds become too saturated with water, the water is released as snow or ice precipitation which may warm as it falls to reach Earth as rain.
Examples of tertiary consumers include:
fish |
|
cows |
|
chickens |
|
sharks |
Tertiary consumers eat primary consumers and secondary consumers and are typically carnivorous predators. Tertiary consumers may also be omnivores. Examples include wolves, sharks, and human beings.
In the food chain, consumers are classified as which of the following?
all of these |
|
primary |
|
tertiary |
|
secondary |
Most animals consume other organisms to survive. Consumers (heterotrophs) are divided into three types, primary, secondary, and tertiary, based on their place in the food chain.
