Acid rain can be caused by factors and there chemicals in the air
Acid rain effects- getting into our under ground waters, the animals might get sick from the acid rain, fish might die, animal health, and human health when it gets in our drinking water
Acid rain-meaning that it has elevated levels of hydrogen ions. is a rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic.
Hope this helps have a nice day

Your friend brings you rocks with a thick layer of oxidation weathering, and no other visible signs of weathering. this is a clu
Vsevolod [243]
<span>A moist environment because physical weathering processes such as oxidation take place most quickly in the presence of water. There are three types of weathering, physical, chemical, and biological. For the physical weathering, there are two main types. Freeze-thaw cycles and exfoliation. Obviously the freeze-thaw cycles require water and the exfoliation generally happens through thermal expansion and contraction which doesn't require water. But since neither of these mechanisms were observed, that doesn't indicate if the area was wet or dry. Biological weathering is caused by plants or animals breaking down rocks via chemical (acid) or mechanical (root growth) means. Life generally indicates the presence of water, but since this form of weathering wasn't observed, we still don't have enough data. Chemical weathering is caused by rain water reacting with the rocks to form new minerals and salts. There are several types such as acidic rainwater dissolving part of the rock, and oxidation. With this in mind, let's take a look at the available options. A moist environment because there is a greater density of oxygen in the atmosphere in the presence of water. * Yes, we need a moist environment, but the density of oxygen is fairly constant world wide regardless of how moist or dry the environment is. So this is a bad choice. A moist environment because physical weathering processes such as oxidation take place most quickly in the presence of water. * Water speeds up chemical weathering of all types. So this is the correct choice. A dry environment because the increased albedo of deserts encourages physical weathering processes such as oxidation. * Yes, the increased albedo of deserts does speed up spalling, but oxidation is a CHEMICAL weathering process, not a PHYSICAL one. So this is a bad choice. A dry environment because in the absence of water oxidation is the dominant weathering process. * Water speeds up oxidation quite a bit. And since the observed oxidation is thick, there's been quite a bit of weathering. So this is a bad choice.</span>

Viscous fiber helps to lower blood cholesterol levels by interfering with the reabsorption of ________ in the intestines.
Yuki888 [10]
By interfering with the absorption of BILE in the intestine. Bile contains cholesterol, if it absorbed from the intestines it will increase the level of cholesterol in the blood stream. So, the viscous fiber stop this by sequestering the bile acids.

In general, the nervous system
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-E.

Explanation:

The nervous system is one of the most important systems of the animal body which helps in the transmission of the signals to and fro from the body to the nervous system.

The evolution of this system is the basis of the evolution of the human species as it helped and tried the species to sense the external environment most efficiently as well as improved the response to the environment.

The nervous system improved the response by forming new interactions with each other and responding to it by reducing the response time through reflex actions which formed fast acting response to the environment. The transmission of signals improved as the cells were long-lasting that is present form the birth of an organism  

Thus,  option-E is the correct answer.
