Answer:
Main Causes of Soil Pollution
1. Industrial Activity. Industrial activity has been the biggest contributor to the problem in the last century, especially since the amount of mining and manufacturing has increased.
2. Agricultural Activities. The utilization of chemicals has gone up tremendously since technology provided us with modern pesticides and fertilizers.
3. Waste Disposal.
Explanation:
got the information from the internet
Lichens are not single organisms, but algae and fungi that function together. The algae use photosynthesis to make food for both organisms. The fungi produce digestive chemicals and absorb nutrients for both organisms.
How does the biological activity of lichens cause weathering in rocks?
Answer options with 4 options
A.
Lichens cause friction as they grow, which weathers the rocks.
B.
Lichens produce chemicals, which dissolve and weather the rocks.
C.
Lichens take in water, which freezes in cracks and weathers the rocks.
D.
Lichens absorb heat during photosynthesis, which weathers the rocks.
Answer:
The correct answer is B
Lichens produce chemicals which dissolve and weather rocks
A polar bear has thick, white fur that camouflages it when it sits on snow. Which type of adaptation is this modification?
A. structural
B.natural
C.functional
D.behavioral
Which on is it?
Answer:B Natural
Explanation:Camouflage is a adaptation which animals use to blend in with their surroundings in order to protect themselves from the predators and hunters. This also gives them a better chance of survival and easy mode of hunting for food.
For example: white fox hides in the snow from the predators
Camouflage is a clear example of Physical or Structural adaptations.
-Body shape, color and body patterns are the adaptations that assists both predators and prey to camouflage
-As in the example mentioned, the polar bear with its white fur hides in the snow and waits for the right time to attack its prey without being seen
Hope it helps!!
Though non-limonuse, the planet and satellite shine as they reflect ligh from star and sun. But they have different brightness .Give two reasons.
Answer:
The earth has an atmosphere: satellites don't. Plus, the planet and satellites are made up of completely different things, which can affect the emission spectra of light.
Explanation:
two glass tubes are placed in water one of them has very concentrated sucrose solution while the other has a concentrated sucrose solution after an hour what will happen to the liquid levels in the glass
Answer:
The liquid levels in the solution will become more dilute (have more water) due to Osmosis.
Explanation:
This is because Osmosis moves down a concentration gradient so the water outside the solution will become more concentrated and the solution will become more dilute.
The enzyme found in stem cells and cancer cells that allows these cells to never enter replicative senescence is:
Answer:
Telomerase is found in high levels in germline cells (egg and sperm) and stem cells. In these cells telomere length is maintained after DNA replication and the cells do not show signs of ageing.
A 100% efficient light bulb is the one that converts all the electricity to light without producing any heat. which of that following methods is the most economical way of increasing the light output from a lamp ?
a) Replace the light with a new one
b) Clean the light surface
c) Switch of the bulb
d) None of the above
Answer:
d
Explanation:
Buying a new light bulb will cost money so it is economically inefficient. Cleaning the light surface doesn't increase the light output from the lamp and switching off the bulb means no light at all, therfore the answer is none of the above.
suggest what caused this increase of species of mayfly
Answer:
Mayflies are often seen as a sign of healthy water ecosystems because they are very sensitive to pollutants., Because mayflies are an indicator of water quality. Mayflies are highly sensitive to algal blooms, increased nutrient concentrations, and pesticides.

4 Spheres Observation (Bio, Geo, Atmo, Hydro) : What did you see that represents each? How did they interact with each other? and pls be specific in ur answer, and pls no links!
Answer:
The spheres interact to effect Earth’s systems and processes, and they are constantly changing each other.
For example, ocean currents (hydrosphere) affect air temperature (atmosphere): The Gulf Stream is a powerful water current in the Atlantic Ocean. It’s warm water moderates the temperatures on the east coast of the USA.
Another example of how the spheres affect each other is through erosion. Erosion happens in the desert when wind (atmosphere) shapes the sand in the geosphere. Water (hydrosphere) can also shape land, such as in the formation of the Grand Canyon.
Humans have a huge impact on all spheres. Negative impacts, such as burning fossil fuels, pollute the atmosphere. Piling up our waste in landfills affects the geosphere. Pumping waste into the oceans harms the hydrosphere. And overfishing and habitat destruction can reduce the diversity of living things in the biosphere.
However, people everywhere are working to change things. Recycling efforts are increasing all over the world, and companies are finding new ways to reduce fossil fuels. In the US alone, people are recycling six times more than a generation ago.

Answer:
What is this ???
Explanation:
breathing involves the movement of diaphragm and Rib cage
true or false
Answer:
TrueExplanation:
It's a true statement as,
When we inhale the diaphragm moves downwards and the rib cage moves upwards and outwards to let enter the outside air containing oxygen come in.While we exhale the diaphragm comes to its position and the rib cage move downwards and inwards to let out the inside carbon-dioxide and other games out.Hence, we can conclude that breathing involves the movement of diaphragm and Rib cage.
Yes,very true! This is very true because out lungs are around our rib cage,and our lungs is where we breath. For example,right now take a breath in.....Hold.... and out. And one more time. Your lungs are moving in your rib has you do that!
Hope this explains better :)
