Answer:
The best answer to the question: The greenhouse effect is driven by the fact that greenhouse gases are:___, would be: Good absorbers of radiation at all wavelengths.
Explanation:
Under normal circumstances, the Earth receives energy from the sun and also produces a bit of its own energy. The energy that arrives from the sun is usually known as shortwave radiation, while the energy that is both absorbed by the Earth´s atmosphere, and the energy produced by Earth itself, becomes part of what is known as the longwave radiation. Greenhouse gases, like water vapor, carbon dioxide and methane trap both longwave and shortwave radiation, which should usually be expelled to a certain extent towards space, and maintain them trapped inside the atmosphere. This bouncing effect between the shield created by the gases and the lower atmosphere, should normally be controlled by the amount of atoms of gases in the higher atmosphere. However, in the greenhouse effect, what is happening is that the amount of gases is too high, and therefore they are trapping most of the radiation, both longwave and shortwave, and keeping it in, allowing the climate to warm up.
Answer:
(2) is renewable, so it will decrease the environmental impact of the tower
businesses
Explanation:
Wind power is a renewable energy that cannot be depleted and as such is sustainable. Additionally, replacing renewable energy such as gas power by renewable energy such as wind, solar or hydopower will reduce the use of fossil fuels and hence reduce environmental impact of the tower businesses.
C. Clay soil has a higher porosity than sandy soil.
Explanation:
Maller soil particles have smaller pore spaces, but a greater number of them, which leads to higher surface tension and high % porosity.
To be frank, I don't think your question is specific enough, but I would say that the answer would be the Rocky mountains, or just mountains. those are the only major kinds of landforms I can think of
