a city is concerned about global warming in smoke. It wants to reduce the impact of its use of fossil fuels. Explain how the city could use technology to reduce fossil fuel use by changing (a) its transportation, (b) it’s buildings, (c) services for city residents.


Plsplspls help

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) Increasing the toll for non carpoolers will motivate people to carpool and therefore will decrease the number of cars in the road burning fossil fuels.

b) Tax breaks for buildings that use solar panels for energy. This reduces fossil fuels burned for electricity.

c) The city can increase the amount of city transportation available. While this may seem counterproductive because the amount of buses or trains or boats burning fossil fuels increases, by doing this more people will have easy access to public transportation and it has been shown that public transportation is more effective in reducing fossil fuel usage per head. Providing more options of public transportation will increase their usage and therefore will over decrease the amount of fossil fuel burned by individuals which will overall decrease fossil fuels burning.

Answer for #8:

Cold water is heavier than warm water, and because of that it sinks. Ice dissolving into the water cools the ocean, causing it to drown. This creates a wave by which cold water is drowning near the poles, which forces the water into the depths of the ocean, leading the entire ocean to swirl. This cold, thick water is then forced back up against the west shores of the continents where it can be warmed.

How is it possible for some organisms to survive using only fermentation and not cellular respiration?

Answers

Answer:

Both of these processes can happen thanks to alternative glucose breakdown pathways that occur when normal, oxygen-using (aerobic) cellular respiration is not possible—that is, when oxygen isn't around to act as an acceptor at the end of the electron transport chain. These fermentation pathways consist of glycolysis with some extra reactions tacked on at the end. In yeast, the extra reactions make alcohol, while in your muscles, they make lactic acid.

1.What happens when fertilizer ends up in waterways?
2. Describe eutrophication.
3. What has happened at the mouth of the Mississippi River?

Answers

Bxnzjsbdmsgdjcdpdjxjdk
1. When fertilizer ends up in waterways, the fertilizer gets carried to larger bodies of water. The added nutrients from the fertilizer creates excessive growth of algae, creating algal.

2. Eutrophication is what a water based ecosystem does when too much nutrients are added to it. it’s mainly caused by two nutrients, phosphorus and nitrogen. The biggest problem in eutrophication are algal blooms.

3. At the mouth of the Mississippi River there is a dead zone. Due to algae using up all the oxygen, aquatic organisms can not survive there. Things that can help prevent dead zones are cutting down on fertilizer use and preserving wetlands.

Answers

Answer:

1: Mold 2: Cells 3: do all jobs 4: bacteria 5: producing offspring 6: Taxonomy 7: Healing a broken arm 8:obtain energy, produce offspring, maintain their structure 9: soil (I think) 10: food, water, air, and a place to live

Answer:

1. lung.

2. cells.

3. do all jobs for survival.

4. bacteria.

5. producing offspring.

6. Taxonomy.

7. a cell dividing.  

8. obtain energy, produce offspring, and maintain their structure.

9. soil.

10. food, water, air, and a place to live.

Explanation:

1.  all of the other options are organisms, while a lung is an organ.

2. All living things are made of cells

3. All unicellular organisms must be able to perform all the functions necessary for life. Meaning do all the jobs needed for survival.

4. Bacteria is the organism listed that is able to cause an infection or contagious disease.

5. A fish laying hundreds of eggs is an example of producing offspring. While it could also be an example of maintaining structure, a fish cannot obtain energy by laying eggs. So, the best answer is producing offspring.

6. Taxonomy's definition is the branch of science concerned with classification, especially of organisms; systematics.

7. a cell dividing is maintaining structure. After growth, cell division by mitosis allows for continual construction and repair of the organism. The primary concern of cell division is the maintenance of the original cell's genome. So, this is the best option for the question.

8. The second option is wrong, because not every organism plays video games. The 4th option is wrong, because not every organism builds their own home. And finally, the first option is incorrect, because plants do not physically eat they obtain their energy through photosynthesis. So, the correct option is the 3rd one.

9. Soil is not needed for all living organisms, but the other options listed are necessary.

10. the second and third option are incorrect, because not every living thing needs a parent. The first option is incorrect, because not every living thing needs sunshine and it does not list the other necessary components. So, the correct answer is the last option. And a place to live can also mean an appropriate environment.

Why would you expect a dead zone to start near the mouth of a river, where the river flows into a body of water?

Answers

Water pollution comes from many sources. One of the biggest sources is runoff. Runoff moves over the surface of the land and picks up chemicals such as fertilizer (contains vital nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium - NPK) from agricultural fields, lawns, and golf courses. It carries the chemicals to bodies of water. The added nutrients from fertilizer often cause the excessive growth of algae, creating algal blooms which are temporary phenomena because the large population of algae use up the available nutrients (Figure 2.4c). When the algae die, the decomposing bacteria use up oxygen in the water so that other aquatic organisms cannot survive. This has occurred over large areas of the ocean, creating dead zones, where low oxygen levels have killed all ocean life. A very large dead zone exists in the Gulf of Mexico. Measures that can help prevent these problems include cutting down on fertilizer use. Preserving wetlands also helps because wetlands filter runoff.

This material covers the Earth's surface and supports life. Without soil, plants would not grow, and animals would not survive.Even though speaking about soil seems simple enough, it is actually very complex. That is because soil comes in many different forms which are made of layers, called horizons. When you look at the horizons together, you get a soil profile. Each horizon has its own set of characteristics. Some soil characteristics are the amount of sand, the type of minerals, and the amount of decomposing leaves found in the soil. All of these characteristics will help determine what kind of plant life the soil can support.Passage B Healthy plants are plants that are able to take sunlight, water, and nutrients and turn them into food. Their roots absorb two of these ingredients from the soil around them. The ideal soil for growing is one that contains the right amount of water without being too wet. It also contains many nutrients.How do nutrients make it into the soil? The answer is actually quite complex. Nutrient-rich soil contains organic matter, which is broken-down plant and animal matter. As the plant and animal matter decays, or decomposes, it releases nutrients into the soil. Then, it is absorbed by living plants and turned into food. Therefore, the richer the nutrients in the soil, the healthier the plant.Based on the information in Passages A and B, how do the nutrients in the soil determine what kind of plant it can support? In order to get nutrients into the soil, plants and animals decompose, which means they are broken down and absorbed as food. Plants absorb the nutrients they need from the soil to make food, so the type of nutrients in the soil need to match the type of nutrients needed by the plant. Soil horizons share their nutrients so that plants and animals have enough food to survive, especially during the summer season. The minerals, water, and organic matter in the soil keep plants from growing large, so plants need to choose a spot that doesn't have any of those things. -1/6 x -3/5 the answer has to be a fraction Antonym context clues involve words withexact definitionsan idea of the meaningsopposite meaningsthe same meaning So the African bush elephant weighs between 4.4 tons and 7.7 tons what are its least and greatest weights rounded to the nearest ton ?
