Sharks obtain all of their energy by eating other marine organisms, such as fish. suppose that a marine scientist measures the chemical energy found in a system consisting of a fish and a shark. after the shark consumes the fish, the marine scientist finds that the total energy in the system decreases. if true, would this result validate or invalidate the law of conservation of energy? why or why not? invalidate, because energy should not leave a closed system invalidate, because the amount of energy should stay constant validate, because this scenario describes an open system validate, because the overall energy in the ocean is still unchanged

List two new traits (structural or behavioral) that each new species of rat might demonstrate as it adapts to the conditions on two of the four islands. choose only two islands that are described in the lesson. record the island latter and the major habitat feature of the island. then list two new traits each rat subspecies might demonstrate in order to survive the habitat on that island. note: new traits should be unique to that island and be in response to that island’s habitat feature. i cannot remember islands that were names in the lesson so only answer if you have done the lesson (5.13 life science 7b) choose 2 of the islands and describe a structural and a behavioral trait for a rat on each island so 4 total answers, 2 different structurals and 2 different behaviorals, one for each rat for each island

Populations of blue-winged warblers, a type of bird, migrate south in the winter and return to canadian breeding grounds in the spring. as global temperatures have increased due to climate change, spring has started arriving in the warbler's breeding grounds earlier in the year, before the warblers return. warblers now arrive at their breeding grounds too late to select ideal nesting sites and to feed on important early-spring food sources how are populations of blue-winged warblers most likely to be affected by the earlier arrival of spring? o a. populations will go extinct since the warblers will stop migrating to breeding grounds. b. populations will be unaffected since most species can quickly adapt to effects of climate change. c. populations will increase since warmer temperatures are generally beneficial to survival, d. populations will decline since individuals will be less likely to successfully reproduce, reset next
