About one-quarter of all wastes in landfills are

Biology
1 answer:
irina1246 [14]3 years ago
8 0
One-third of all waste in landfills are waste products. They are of no use. The rest of them is methane and other waste. Time to time methane is removed, for using it for different purposes. In landfills, the waste is buried and fresh waste is added to it every day. By anaerobic process, the waste is broken down into methane and other products.

How do earth's spheres interact to cause weather/climate?
miss Akunina [59]
The atmosphere transfers heat energy and moisture across the Earth. Incoming solar radiation (insolation) is redistributed from areas in which there is a surplus of heat (the equator) to areas where there is a heat deficit (the North and South Pole). This is achieved through a series of atmospheric cells: the Hadley cell, the Ferrel cell and the Polar cell (Figure 2). These operate in a similar way to, and indeed interact with, the ocean conveyor.

For example, as the oceans at low latitudes are heated, water evaporates and is transported poleward as water vapour. This warm air eventually cools and subsides. Changes in temperature and CO2 concentrations can lead to: changes in the size of atmospheric cells (in particular, the Hadley cell is susceptible to these alterations); warming in the troposphere; and disproportionately strong warming in Arctic regions. The strong interactions between ocean and atmospheric dynamics, and the significant feedback mechanisms between them, mean that climate researchers must consider these Earth components as interlinked systems. The necessity to assess ocean-atmospheric changes at the global scale has implications for the way in which research is conducted. It is only by integrating palaeo evidence of past changes, with present day monitoring, and projected models,

In 3-5 sentences write a description of how the 4 terms, DNA, chromosomes, genes and traits, are related and/or work together to
wel

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Deoxyribosenucleic acid, commonly called DNA is the stored form of genetic material in living cells. It contains the information needed by an organism to survive. A segment of the DNA that encodes the necessary information needed to produce a particular protein that determines a trait is called GENE.

The DNA consists of long polynucleotide chains, hence, due to Its length, it cannot git into the cell. The cell then devises a means by wrapping the long strands of DNA around certain proteins called HISTONES. This initially forms a NUCLEOSOME structure, then continuous wrapping around histones and condensation forms the visible CHROMOSOME structure.

Now, the CHROMOSOME contains the DNA molecule, which contains protein-coding segments called GENES. The information contained on the gene is used to produce a protein that is responsible for a particular TRAIT in the organism.

Why doesn't a gummy bear grow as much in sugar water as it does in normal water?
Ludmilka [50]
Salt molecules are much smaller than sugar molecules, so more of them will dissolve in water.
