lesya [120]3 years ago

The best answer is option D. Acid rain is simply rainfall that has been rendered acidic due to water vapor reacting with nitrogen oxide ad sulphur dioxide very high up in the atmosphere. Acid rain is not only a threat to the ecosystem and environment, but also seriously damages buildings and sculptures. Marble and limestone are especially vulnerable to acid rain. This is because the two building or construction materials contain calcite which is easily dissolved by acid. Concrete surfaces and paint finishes are also seriously damaged by acid rain.

Most nonrenewable energy resources are burned for us to use their energy. Which of the following is a nonrenewable energy source
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

The correct answer is - A) nuclear.

Explanation:

Most of the non-renewable sources of energy are fossil fuels that are formed by the thermal decomposition of dead organic matter for million years and are converted to lighter hydrocarbons that contain high electrostatic potential energy.

Burning is the process that breaks the hydrocarbons into water vapor and CO2 with high amount of energy. Coal, natural gas and biofuels all three are fossil fuels and nuclear products are not fossil fuel but radioactive elements.

3. What differences would you expect to see in a population made up of individuals whose chromosomes experience crossing-over fr
kramer

Answer:

I would expect to see a greater variety of traits observed. Simplistically, I would expect to see people with blue eyes and brown hair, blonde hair or red hair. Whereas in a population where chromosomes do not cross over, I would expect to see traits that are more frequently associated with each other. For example, I would expect to see a greater proportion of blue eyed people to be blonde because the gene for hair colour is more frequently associated with the gene for eye colour.
