The dense atmosphere of Venus is light in color, causing most incoming solar radiation to be reflected.

<h3 /><h3>What is the composition of atmosphere of Venus?</h3>

The atmosphere of Venus is composed of carbon dioxide (CO2, 96,5 %) and nitrogen (N2, less than 3,5%) already represent more than 99,9% of the composition. Water Vapor is present in extremely low quantities, making Venus the driest planet of the solar system.

<h3>What is the effect of solar radiation on planet Venus? </h3>

On Venus, only 10% of the incoming solar radiation reaches the surface; most of it is reflected back into space by the planet's dense cloud cover, making Venus appear to shine brightly in the night sky.

Despite the small amount of solar radiation reaching the surface, it is trapped effectively by gases in lower atmosphere, giving rise to the high temperatures.

Scientists think that the Venus was once more like the Earth, but at some point it started heating up uncontrollably.  Any water that may have once existed in oceans on the surface evaporated into atmosphere causing further runaway heating.

It’s like Earth gone wrong with a runaway greenhouse effect that some planetary scientists say should be a warning as to what may become of our home planet if human activities – such as burning fossil fuels and destroying forests, which intensifies natural greenhouse effect – continue.

A 0.75 kilogram apple is thrown upward from the ground. The apple reaches a height of 5.5m, what is the beginning gravitational
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

U(0.0m) = 0J

U(5.5m) = 40.42 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy is given by the following formula:

U=mgh

h: height

m: mass of the apple = 0.75kg

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

When the apple is at 5.5m from the ground the gravitational potential energy is:

U=(0.75kg)(9.8m/s^2)(5.5m)=40.42\ J

when the apple is on the ground you have:

U=mg(0m)=0\ J

PLEASE HELP ME I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR HOURS!! How do some carnivorous plants avoid beginning the digestion process from an a
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Once a carnivorous plant has procured an item for dinner, it has to have some way to turn it into fertilizer. What carnivorous plants do is very similar to what humans do with their dinner after they have eaten it. Most carnivorous plants have glands that secrete acids and enzymes to dissolve proteins and other compounds. The plants may also enlist other organisms to help with digestion. The plants then absorb the nutrients made available from the prey.

Drosera releases digestive juices through the glands at the tip of its tentacles and absorbs the nutrients through the tentacles, leaf surface, and sessile glands. In order to do this it bends its tentacles and rolls or bends the leaf to get as many tentacles as possible into contact with the prey for digestion and to make as much leaf surface available for absorption. Its relative Drosophyllum has differently structured, non moving tentacles and doesn't use them directly for digestion. Instead it has specialized glands on the surface of the leaf that release the digestive enzymes (see Carniv. Pl. Newslett. 11(3):66-73 ( PDF ) for drawings and discussion).

The sealed trap of Dionaea does digestion in a way similar to the leaf surface digestion carnivores—upon capture of a prey, digestive enzymes in mucous are released. The advantage of the sealed trap of Dionaea is rain won't wash away the nutrients as digestion proceeds.

The sealed trap carnivores Aldrovanda and Utricularia already have water in their traps so they only need to release enzymes. Utricularia appears to release the enzymes continuously into its traps.

The other carnivorous plants use either a mixed mode of digestive enzymes and partner organisms (Genlisea, Sarracenia, most Nepenthes, Cephalotus, some Heliamphora, Roridula) or other organisms exclusively for digestion (most Heliamphora, some Nepenthes, Darlingtonia). Part of the reason for partnering with other organisms is that the plants actually have little choice in the matter. This could also be a factor for the leaf surface and sealed trap digesters as well. The prey will have gut flora that are quite capable of digesting their host when it dies. In addition, insect larvae, frog tadpoles, and predacious protozoans will or will attempt to take up residence in water-filled traps. The plant releasing digestive enzymes and acids into the traps will help tip the nutrition balance to themselves, but there are limits.
