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.

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.

Even transporting nuclear fuel to and from plants poses a contamination risk. And once the fuel is spent, you can't just throw it in the city dump. It's still radioactive and potentially deadly. On average, a nuclear power plant annually generates 20 metric tons of used nuclear fuel, classified as high-level radioactive waste. When you take into account every nuclear plant on Earth, the combined total climbs to roughly 2,000 metric tons a year [source: NEI]. All of this waste emits radiation and heat, meaning that it will eventually corrode any container that holds it. Choose the best concluding statement for this paragraph. A) Nuclear power is a good thing, but no one can say how much of a good thing B) The relative value of employing nuclear power depends largely on the circumstances. C) Nuclear power involves many environmental dangers, which must be taken into consideration. D) Nuclear power should be forbidden outright; whatever benefits it brings are far outweighed by the costs.
