Unionid mussels are native to the Hudson River in New
York State. In the early 1990s, zebra mussels were
introduced into the Hudson River. The table shows the
number of unionid mussels and zebra mussels over the
course of six years.
How did the population of unionid mussels change after
zebra mussels were introduced? Why did this change
occur?

Foreshadowing. the prologue states that this is the story of "star-crossed lovers." there are four strong foreshadowings of evil in act 1. identify at least two foreshadowings and explain their purpose.

Because air contracts as it cools, the air pressure inside a freezer is typically lower than on the outside. why do ice cubes inside a freezer tend to shrink over time? a. the ice dissolves oxygen from the air, forming a denser crystalline matrix. b. the ice reacts chemically with carbon dioxide in the air, forming gaseous carbon compounds. c. the ice melts, and then the liquid freezes as ice crystals on the bottom of the freezer. d. the ice sublimes, and then the water vapor deposits as ice crystals on the sides of the freezer.

Carbon is allowed to diffuse through a steel plate 15 mm thick. the concentrations of carbon at the two faces are 0.65 and 0.30 kg c/m^3 fe, which are maintained constant. if the preexponential and activation energy are 6.2 x 10-7 m2 /s and 80,000 j/mol, respectively, compute the temperature at which the diffusion flux is 1.43 x 10^-9 kg/m^2 -s.
