Q:

Which of the following is an Abiotic factor?

A) Plants B) Water
C) Consumers D) Animals
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Water

Explanation:

Abiotic and biotic factors are what make up an ecosystem.

 

Abiotic factors are all nonliving components of an ecosystem. These factors include chemical and geological features such as water or lack of water, soil, rocks, and minerals. Other abiotic factors include physical components such as the temperature and weather affecting the ecosystem.


The biotic factors in an ecosystem include all living things. All plants, animals, fungi, protists, and bacteria within an ecosystem make up that system's biotic factors. The biotic factors can be broken down further into producers, consumers, and decomposers.

The biotic factors present in an ecosystem are highly dependent on the abiotic factors that are present. Even slight changes to either factor can have a major consequence upon the system as a whole.

Q:

Negative plus a positive equals

A) negative B) positive
C) zero D) Can't be determined
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Can't be determined

Explanation:

We know that a negative value plus a positive value always count backward and the sign depends on the bigger value sign.

When you are adding a negative number to a positive number, then the value counts backward and takes the sign of the biggest number.

 

For example::

Adding -5 and +2

-5 + 2 = -3 (big number is 5 and its sign is '-')

 

Adding -3 and  +5

+5 + (-3) = 5 - 3 = +2(big number is 5 and it has sign '+').
