When water vapor and carbon dioxide absorb heat and either radiate it into space, to other gases, or send it back to Earth, this is the <u>Greenhouse Effect. </u>

<h3>What is the Greenhouse effect?</h3>

This is the trapping of the sun's heat by gases such as water vapor and carbon dioxide.

When the heat is trapped, it can be radiated to other gases or radiated back to the Earth. This process is responsible for the rise in temperature noted around the Earth.

Construction work is being carried out for a railway route passing close to a mountain slope. Why is it necessary to cover the m
iogann1982 [59]

When building some infrastructure, in this case a railway, that is close to a mountain slope, it is necessary to cover the mountain slope with a wire mesh.

The biggest reason for that is the safety.

The steep mountain slopes can be very dangerous, because the rocks undergo the natural processes of weathering and erosion, which causes the rocks to break up and fall downwards. The railway can be locked in that way because there will be rocks on it, so the trains will not be able to pass further. But what is more concerning is that rocks may start falling directly on the train itself, or on the railway but when the train is passing through, and can cause a tragedy. The train may get pushed of the railway, or the rocks may knock it down or get through the windows, so lot of lives can be lost, as well as lot of damage will be done too.

A graphical representation of the strength of an acid or base​
Lilit [14]

Answer: titration curve

Explanation:

A titration curve is a graphical representation of the pH of a solution during a titration. The figure below shows two different examples of a strong acid-strong base titration curve. On the left is a titration in which the base is added to the acid and so the pH progresses from low to high.

In a fibric O layer, plant matter is recognizable (e.g., it is possible to identify a leaf). Sapric material is broken down into much finer matter and is unrecognizable as a plant part. Hemic is in between sapric and fibric, with some barely recognizable plant material present.
