A utility company has proposed building a natural gas power plant next to a lake. The picture below shows the proposed power plant.
The company claims burning natural gas will release only harmless gases such as water vapor (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2). Why would environmental scientists disagree with this claim?
A
The emission of carbon dioxide leads to rapid cooling of the Earth’s lakes and oceans.
B
The emission of carbon dioxide leads to an increase in the temperature of the atmosphere.
C
The emission of water vapor leads to a decrease in the humidity of Earth’s atmosphere.
D
The emission of water vapor pollutes the atmosphere, causing harm to plants and animals.
Answer: B is right
Explanation: Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas which is involved
with increasing temperature of atmosphere
where does pollination takes place in the flower
Answer:
To be pollinated, pollen must be moved from a stamen to the stigma. When pollen from a plant's stamen is transferred to that same plant's stigma, it is called self-pollination. When pollen from a plant's stamen is transferred to a different plant's stigma, it is called cross-pollination.
Explanation:
Malaria is a disease that kills over 800 000 people each year. What causes malaria and how is it spread? What drugs are used to treat this disease and why should Canadians be concerned about the spread of malaria worldwide?
Answer: Usually, people get malaria by being bitten by an infective female Anopheles mosquito. Only Anopheles mosquitoes can transmit malaria and they must have been infected through a previous blood meal taken from an infected person.
How do antibodies fight pathogens
Answer:
1) Antibodies are secreted into the blood and mucosa, where they bind to and inactivate foreign substances such as pathogens and toxins (neutralization).
2) Antibodies activate the complement system to destroy bacterial cells by lysis (punching holes in the cell wall).
[tex]what \: are \: nutrients \: \: \: {?} [/tex]
Answer:
Nutrients are compounds in foods essential to life and health, providing us with energy, the building blocks for repair and growth and substances necessary to regulate chemical processes. There are six major nutrients: Carbohydrates (CHO), Lipids (fats), Proteins, Vitamins, Minerals, Water.
I got this answer from the web so credits to the owner for the answer :)

What risk is most likely to happen when using wind as an energy source
Answer:
As with all energy supply options, wind energy can have adverse environmental impacts, including the potential to reduce, fragment, or degrade habitats for wildlife, fish, and plants. Furthermore, spinning turbine blades can pose a threat to flying wildlife like birds and bats.
An epistatic allele in labrador retrievers ensures that ee lab pups are yellow. Two other alleles control coat color, where black is dominant to brown. What portion of yellow pups would you expect from a parental cross where one parent was yellow (Bbee) and the other was heterozygous
Answer:
1/4
Explanation:
Epistasis is defined as a phenomenon in a genetics where the effect of the gene mutation which dependent on the absence or the presence of the mutation in more than one genes.
In the context, an epistatic allele in the Labrador retrievers which ensures the ee lab pups that are yellow and the two other alleles which control coat color are black that is dominant to the brown.
Thus, 1/4 portion of the yellow pups would expect from the parental cross where one of the parent is yellow (Bbee) and the other is heterozygous.
Thus the answer is 1/4.
Droughts occur due to climate change and elevated temperatures, which in turn may lead to other consequences as well. Imagine that a wildfire happened in the nature reserve. Predict what would happen if such an environmental shift that is so extreme and rapid
hits the nature reserve and the population of deer mice does not have time to adapt. Propose a possible solution for this problem.
Answer:
Research shows that changes in climate create warmer, drier conditions. Increased drought, and a longer fire season are boosting these increases in wildfire risk. ... Changes in climate add to these factors and are expected to continue to increase the area affected by wildfires in the United States.
what caused the earth to separate into layers
Answer:
When the inside of the Earth was liquid, gravity caused the heavier elements nickel and iron to sink to the center. Lighter elements floated to the surface. Over time this process caused the Earth to separate into layers.

A) cell membrane
B) cell wall
C) DNA
D) Cytoplasm
E) Nucleus
F) Chloroplasts
Answer:
I think D which is the cytoplasm
Explanation:
because it is not specific with cell is this off so cytoplasm is there in both the animal cell and plant cell
What does DNA prove about organism ancestry?
A. Plants and animals are not related to one another
B. That all organisms are related to one another
C. DNA and RNA are completely different forms of genetic coding
D. Extraterrestrial life will have DNA as well
Answer:
B. That all organisms are related to one another
Explanation:
DNA and the genetic code reflect the shared ancestry of life. DNA comparisons can show how related species are. Biogeography. The global distribution of organisms and the unique features of island species reflect the evolution and geological change.
Answer:
B. That all organisms are related to one another
Explanation:
DNA prove about organism ancestry, that all organisms are related to one another.
Which of the following is a subsystem of an organism?
When the genotype consists of a dominant and a recessive allele, the phenotype will be like _________ alllele.
Answer:
dominant
Explanation:
It dominant because when a dominant allele is present it will always take that phenotype for example if being tall is dominant and short is recessive and the person has the genotype of Tt that person will be tall because that big T is there.
Do you think if the environmental conditions in an area changes that the plants and animals that inhabit that region will change their features to adapt to the changing conditions?
Answer:
yea
Explanation:
cause our climate conditions changes everyday depends on the atmosphere at that time so if there fire in a forest all the animals there have to adapt to the smoke.
Yes, if the environmental conditions in an area changes that the plants and animals that inhabit that region will change their features to adapt to the changing conditions.
Why plants and animals will change their features?
Plants and animals are fundamentally different in many ways, but one of the most obvious is in how they deal with temperature.The climatic niche of a species reflects where it can live.A species with a wide climatic niche can range widely across many different conditions and may be especially resilient to climate change.Different sets of plant and animal species tend to occur at different elevations, which differ in temperature and precipitation.

What are the characteristic of a cell?
Answer:
All cells have a cell membrane, cytoplasm, and DNA. cells differ in how their genetic information is contained. All living organisms share several key characteristics or functions: order, sensitivity or response to the environment, reproduction, growth and development, regulation, homeostasis, and energy processing. When viewed together, these characteristics serve to define life.

Explanation:
Adults produce gametes through a type of cellular reproduction called mitosis. The process of a sperm cell and an egg cell fusing together is called fertilizationand produces a zygote. As a zygote undergoes rapid cell division to develop into an embryo, fetus, and eventually baby, the type of cellular reproduction being used is . As a baby grows into an adult, the type of cellular reproduction used is mitosis.
Answer:
Mitosis.
Explanation:
Mitosis is the type of cellular reproduction which is used in order to develop an embryo, fetus, and eventually baby. In mitosis type of cell division, the parent and mature cells divides into two daughter cell. This type of cell division occurs in somatic or body cells whereas meiosis type of cell division occurs in the sex cells which produces four daughter cells from a single parent cell.
