Nirates and phosphates are important chemicals to living things. Explain why these chemicals can also be pollutants.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Nitrogen and phosphorus are essential elements for all living organisms. They are used in DNA and chemical processes in the body. Most nitrogen is found in the air and most phosphorus is bound up in rocks and sediments, making them unavailable to organisms. And they are pollutants cuz nitrogen and phosphorus support the growth of algae and aquatic plants, which provide food and habitat for fish, shellfish, and smaller organisms that live in water. But when too much nitrogen and phosphorus enter the environment - usually from a wide range of human activities - the air and water can become polluted

Explanation:

if my answer help, I hope you get better <3

Answer 2

Explanation:

When nitrate and phosphate ions concentrations in shallow waterbodies are in excess, there is overgrowth of water plants leading to the formation of algal bloom. This causes a high consumption of dissolved oxygen in the water. ... The dead plants and animals decay creating deterioration of water quality.

In Kevin’s favorite comic book, the superhero has special powers. In one adventure, the superhero must stop an evil villain who threatens to destroy the city with a powerful energy blast.

As he confronts the villain, he makes the following claims:
1: “I can create an energy force field to save the city.”
2: “I can destroy the energy before it destroys the city.”
3: “I can convert all the energy before it can do any harm to the city.”
4: “I can absorb all the energy and make it go away.”

If the superhero must obey the law of conservation of energy, which of the above can he actually do?

a. 1

b. 2

c. 3

d. 4

Answers

Answer:

3

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot just be created, so answer one is out. Energy also cannot be simply destroyed, so answer to is out as well. From here it gets tricky, since both answers make some sense under these rules. However, absorbed is bassically the same as destroying it leaving only answer three. Answer three does obey these laws, as energy can be converted.

The graph below shows the mechanical energy of a car on a roller coaster at four different locations.

Potential energy increases but kinetic energy stays the same during a roller coaster ride.

Kinetic energy and potential energy change, but energy is neither created nor destroyed during a roller coaster ride.

Potential energy is destroyed during a roller coaster ride.

Kinetic energy is created during a roller coaster ride.

Answers

A)Potential energy increases but kinetic energy stays the same during a roller coaster ride.

Explanation:

Potential energy is stored energy that depends upon the relative position of various parts of a system.

Kinetic energy is a form of energy that an object or a particle has by reason of its motion

When telescopes are looking at objects that are really far away, they are actually looking back in time.


True
False

Answers

Answer:

true

Explanation:

looking i the sky you can see stars that are billion years old

Time can be traversed via a telescope. Looking out into space is like looking back in time, according to NASA experts. Light needs time to traverse vast distances of space and come to Earth. Here the given statement is true.

The "deep" in Hubble Deep Field denotes the telescope's capacity to see some of these far-off, faint objects. It's like observing faraway space objects by going back in time. Even though light travels at an astounding rate, it still needs some time to cross the vastness of space.

Light travels slowly, so we don't see things as they are now, but as they were when they released the light that reached us from all over the galaxy.

Thus the given statement is true.

Why have ice ages come and gone?

Answers

Answer:

"When less sunlight reaches the northern latitudes, temperatures drop and more water freezes into ice, starting an ice age. When more sunlight reaches the northern latitudes, temperatures rise, ice sheets melt, and the ice age ends."

Explanation:

Answer:

As temperatures decrease, less sunlight reaches the water. This causes the ice to freeze, when this happens in mass it causes an ice age. Later, temperatures rise and the ice melts.

Explanation:

Temperatures plummet as less sunlight reaches northern latitudes, and more water freezes into ice, triggering an ice age. Temperatures rise, ice sheets melt, and the ice age ends as more sunshine reaches northern latitudes.
