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.

Which best explains why sexual reproduction produces greater variations among offspring? *

A The DNA come from two genetically different parents.
B The DNA cells from one parent that is genetically identical.
C The sex cells are produced by mitosis.
D The sex cells undergo self fertilization

Answers

Answer:

A The DNA come from two genetically different parents.

Explanation:

Everyone has different genetics. They are determined by sex cells that are produced by MEIOSIS NOT mitosis. Meiosis allows for genetic variation amoung offspring along with the genetically different parents.

The DNA come from two genetically different parents explains the best reproduction greater variations among offspring.

What is sexual reproduction?

Reproduction is the act of one or more parents creating a new individual (offspring), frequently within the same species. It is among the characteristics of a living creature.

Sexual reproduction, we mean a process where two parents' genetic material is combined to create a child. When two haploid gametes combine, a genetically unique diploid child is produced.

The word "sexual" has a Late Latin etymology that stems from the word sexus, which means "of copulation or generation." The word reproduction is also derived from the Latin words re, which means "again," and productio, which means "creation." Alternative: syngenesis.

Therefore, The DNA come from two genetically different parents explains the best reproduction greater variations among offspring.

1. Plants on land have taken up approximately 25 percent of the carbon dioxide that humans have put into the atmosphere. The amount of carbon that plants take up varies greatly from year to year, but in general, the world's plants have increased the amount of carbon dioxide they absorb since 1960.

2. Animals that eat other animals get the carbon from their food too. Carbon moves from plants and animals to soils. When plants and animals die, their bodies, wood and leaves decays bringing the carbon into the ground. Some is buried and will become fossil fuels in millions and millions of years.

Barnacles and mussels are filter feeders that attach themselves to rocks in the ocean. They eat by filtering small particles of food from the ocean water as it flows over them. A scientist observed a dense colony of barnacles covering the surface of a rock. The mussels were only able to attach to a few, small crevices on the same rock.

Evaluate this observation and explain a limiting factor that is affecting the barnacles and mussels on the ocean rock

Answers

Answer:

The barnacles are only able to attach themselves to surfaces in the water. Since the surface is limited, barnacles are attaching themselves to the other barnacles, crowding the rock. The muscles were not able to grow or attach themselves off the surface of the rock. Same thing with the mussels that are growing on the rock. So not only barnacles are crowding the rock, but Mussels as well are crowding the rock.

Explanation:

Oysters and cockles are related to mussels and barnacles. These species can be found in both salt and fresh water. They are marine creatures.

What is limiting factor?

A limiting factor is anything that restricts the size of a population and slows or stops its growth. Limiting factors include biotic factors such as food, mates, and resource competition with other organisms.

These creatures have evolved to live on rocky shorelines. The mussels are filter feeders that take in seawater and filter out particles.

The barnacles are gonochoristic, whereas the mussels are hermaphroditic.

The mussels' zonation is the area around the intertidal zones of rocks, as they require food to grow.

Mussels and barnacles are related to oysters and cockles. These species are found in both fresh and salt water. They are marine creatures.

Thus, this is the limiting factor in the give scenario.

Paramecia that live in freshwater have contractile vacuoles, while those that live in salt water do not. Why do you think this is the case?

Answers

Answer:

water enters by osmosis, vacuole is used to pump out excess water.

Explanation:

Paramecia that live in freshwater would have contractile vacuole because they will need to get rid of excess water unlike those that live in salt water.

The vacuole primarily functions to get rid of excess water from the cell.

Freshwater is hypotonic to the cytosol of paramecia. Thus, water will always enter the paramecia cells by osmosis. If the excess water is not excreted from the cell, turgidity will result and the cell may burst.

On the other hand, salt water is likely hypertonic to paramecia cells. Thus, instead of having vacuoles for water excretion, a mechanism would have to be put in place so as not to lose too much water to the surrounding salt solution. In other words, a vacuole would be totally redundant in the hypertonic solution.
