Answer:
Explanation:
He was the first to propose the five-kingdom of organisms taxonomic classification of the world's biota into the Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista, and Monera in 1969. He also proposed the Whittaker Biome Classification, which categorized biome-types upon two abiotic factors : temperature and precipitation.
Answer:
Depending upon the exchange of energy and matter with the environment, thermodynamic sys- tems are classified as open, closed or isolated. A system that can freely exchange energy and matter with its environment is called an open system. Example: water boiling in an open vessel. A system that can freely exchange energy but not.matter with its environment is called a closed system. Example : water boiling in a closed vessel. A system that cannot exchange energy as well as matter with its environment is called an isolated system. In practice it is impossible to realize an isolated system as every object at a temperature.above 0 K emits energy in the form of radiation, and.no object can ever attain 0 K. For many practical purposes, a thermos flask containing a liquid can be considered an isolated system.
