An object initially at rest falls from a height h until it reaches the ground. Two of the following energy bar charts represent the kinetic energy k and gravitational potential energy ug of the object-earth system at two positions. The first position is when the object is initially released, and the second position is when the object is halfway between its release point and the ground. Which two charts could represent the mechanical energy of the object-earth system? select two answers.

Tortoise shells and snail shells are similar in function: they protect the organism from predators. based on a comparison of the organisms in the images, what can you conclude? 1. tortoises and snails have homologous organs, and they’re evolutionarily related. 2. tortoises and snails have homologous organs, and they belong to same species. 3. tortoises and snails have analogous organs, and they belong to the same species. 4. tortoises and snails have analogous organs, and they don’t belong to the same species. 5. tortoises and snails have analogous organs, and they aren’t evolutionarily related.

Nathan is an ecologist. he’s studying the effect of secondary consumers on primary consumers. his current research focuses on a population of blue jays and crows. they eat caterpillars and mice. if the number of blue jays increases, what are the likely effects on other populations? 1the number of crows will increase. 2the number of mice will decrease. 3the number of mice will remain the same. 4the number of caterpillars will decrease.
