Thermal energy is transferred through the hydrosphere mainly through conduction and convection. Conduction occurs when heat is transferred from warmer water to cooler water through direct contact. Convection involves the movement of water masses, which helps distribute heat energy throughout the oceans.

Study it, catch it, throw it, slip and slide on it, ski on it, toboggan on it, cool someone/something with it, build a snowman with it, make a shelter with it, melt it, bury someone or you can stick it in the freezer.

The prefix "eco" is directly related to the ancient greek translation of "house(hold)". It can be understood as "habitat". The word "economics" can be interpreted as "houshold laws", since the word "nomos" (also antient greek) stands for "custom or law"...which can be understood as the "administration of the houshold goods" "Ecology" is a conjunction between "habitat" and "study"...and it all starts by understanding how a small population of organisms in their natural habitat interact with their environment, which is an "ecosystem". Now "ecosystems" and "economics" go hand in hand because the organisms in a given ecosystem are constantly trying to administer the goods of the comunity. hope this helps

One step in the transfer of energy and matter in a community is when producers (such as plants) capture energy from the sun through photosynthesis, converting it into food. This energy is then passed on to consumers (such as animals) when they eat the producers. Decomposers break down waste and dead organisms, returning nutrients to the soil for producers to use, completing the cycle.

The element is cobalt, named after the German word "kobalt" which means evil spirit. Miners deemed it poisonous due to its toxic properties.

The frequency of the waves.

Tea itself does not directly cause cavities. However, adding sugar to tea can contribute to cavity formation if proper oral hygiene is not maintained. Decaffeinated tea with no added sugar is a better option for dental health.

Eosin dye is generally considered safe for use in laboratories and medical settings. However, as with any chemical substance, precautions should be taken to avoid skin contact or inhalation. It is important to follow proper safety guidelines when handling eosin dye to minimize any potential risks.

A ring with leaves or flowers twisted together is typically called a nature-inspired or botanical ring. These designs often feature intricate floral or leaf motifs that are intertwined or wrapped around the band of the ring, creating a unique and organic look.

No, the south pole itself does not attract magnets. Magnets are always attracted to the opposite pole of another magnet, so the south pole of a magnet would be attracted to the north pole of the Earth's magnetic field.

The Rocky Mountains separate the Pacific Coastal region from the Great Plains. This mountain range runs from northern British Columbia in Canada down to New Mexico in the United States.

A dichotomous key works by using a set of questions to eliminate choices until you get down to the one choice you are looking for.

Example: frog turtle gator

Does your animal have a shell? No-Go to question 2,Yes-Turtle.

Does your animal hop for movement? No-go to question 3, Yes-Frog

Does your animal have sharp teeth? Yes-Gator

Of course, most keys have more than 3 options.

There is no "limestone plateau" in Mexico. You either refer to 1) The Mexican Central Plateau, which is an altiplano found in central Mexico where cities such as Mexico, Toluca Guanajuato or Queretaro are found or 2) the Yucatan peninsula, a flat land mostly composed of limestone that can be found on southeastern Mexico.

A geographer would likely study human geography in depth, which focuses on the spatial patterns and relationships between people and their environment. This may include topics such as population distribution, urbanization, cultural landscapes, and globalization.

The wax of the candle and some oxygen in the air are converted into some carbon soot, water vapor, some complex hydrocarbons in the smoke, and carbon dioxide.

If you stand a small candle on a saucer and cover it with a tall glass, you can see each of these things. The candle will burn the oxygen in the glass. You will see the carbon dioxide and smoke fill the bottom of the glass. You will see a little water condense on the side of the glass, and the top of the glass will be blackened with the soot.

When the level of smoke and CO2 reach the level of the flame, the candle will go out.

In the US, owning birds of prey is legal with a proper license and permit. The Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act govern the ownership and handling of birds of prey. It is essential to undergo training and obtain the required permits from the US Fish and Wildlife Service to own these birds legally.

2008 was a leap year starting on Tuesday. The next time such a calendar can be used again is in 2036.

Applying a force to an object can change its motion by either speeding it up, slowing it down, or changing its direction. This acceleration is described by Newton's Second Law, which states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.

Madang is located at approximately 5.2249° S latitude and 145.7969° E longitude.

A substance is a general term used to describe matter with uniform properties, while a pure substance refers to a substance with a specific chemical composition and constant properties throughout. In other words, pure substances consist of only one type of atom or molecule, whereas substances can be mixtures of different components.

global population is rising exponentially - it needs an even higher exponentially rising oil production to sustain - oil is finite and is now declining - we will witness the collapse! - it is inevitable and real data show that it will collapse within 5 - 20 years and will be history in 2040. how it will collapse?

oil production will surpass a certain level which will trigger the fragile global oil driven agriculture to stop into a grinding hold.

scarcity, famine, pogroms, war and nuclear exchange are inevitable.

nobody will starve to death voluntarily. 7 of 9 billion will die in less than 5 years.

95% of all food is provided by the use of oil. the other 5% by the use of coal, natural gas and domestic animals.

our politicians simply want to win year after year of the status quo. which means growth. there will be one bad year when the status quo doesn't hold any longer and it will be soon.

A map legend explains the symbols used on a map and their meanings. The scale shows the ratio of distance on the map to actual distance on the ground. A compass rose indicates the orientation of the map in terms of the cardinal directions (north, south, east, west).

The Appalachian Mountains start in Alabama in the south and extend all the way to Maine in the north, covering about 1,500 miles. They are a major mountain range in the eastern United States.

Materials such as ceramic, glass, and rubber are good insulators and offer high resistance to electricity. Conductor materials like copper, aluminum, and gold, on the other hand, have low resistance to electricity.
