Answer:

A.  Nuclear reactors increase thermal pollution

Explanation:

From the analogy provided in this context, we can vividly see that the author is suggesting that the use of nuclear energy causes thermal pollution.

  • Nuclear energy is an alternate energy source as identified in the text.
  • Since a huge amount of heat energy is generated and they are not all used up, they are released into the ecosystem.
  • The earth is usually depicted as heat reservoir.
  • Increased release of heat to the environment will cause thermal pollution.
  • This increases the ambient temperature of water and degrades it.

Answer:

↓

Explanation:

I can't really read what you have typed, but the subscripts are the little numbers such as this 2 in H₂O. So using the blue pen, I'm assuming you would circle the little numbers. The coefficients are the numbers in front of the elements so from what I can read, in 2HCl the 2 would be circled in the orange. So in a simple way the subscripts are the tiny numbers that are at the bottom (usually after elements), and the coefficients are normal numbers in front of the whole element.

Hopefully that makes sense! :)

The origin of congenital adrenal hyperplasia occurs when circulating cortisol levels
LuckyWell [14K]
The origin of congenital adrenal hyperplasia occurs when circulating cortisol levels are low.
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive disease which results from mutations of genes for enzymes involved in the biochemical steps of production of mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids or sex steroids from cholesterol by the adrenal glands (steroidogenesis). <span>Low cortisol production results in rising levels of ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone) because cortisol usually inhibits ACTH production. This increased ACTH production induces overgrowth (hyperplasia) and overactivity of the steroid-producing cells of the adrenal cortex.</span>

What was Griffith’s explanation for the experiment’s results
Serjik [45]

Answer:

Griffith concluded that the R-strain bacteria must have taken up what he called a "transforming principle" from the heat-killed S bacteria, which allowed them to "transform" into smooth-coated bacteria and become virulent.
