Non renewable resources can be very expensive, especially in capital outlay. For example, wind energy is very expensive to get started. The batteries alone are a headache. What do you do with those batteries whose life is over? How do you dispose of them? It isn't an easy problem to solve.

Then there's the labor part of wind energy. If they are manufactured in Denver Co and they receive an order from Maine, the blades require a wooden plywood box to be made. Plywood is roughly 20$ a 1/2 sheet (in Canada) to say nothing of the carpenter needed to make the box. I'm told that it takes a good day and one half just to make that box alone. That's for 1 blade. Then there's the shipping cost for 3 blades. Then there's the cost of making the blades which require highly skilled workers. 

Then there's the problem of wind, (or lack thereof). the problems just keep on going up and the expenses with them.

the diploid number of chromosomes in horses is 64. what is the haploid number of chromosomes in horses?
OlgaM077 [116]
The haploid number of the chromosomes should be 32. 

Diploid number means that they have the complete sets of chromosomes in their cells, these cells are usually found in somatic (body) cells and different organisms have a different number. For example, a human somatic cell has 46 chromosomes, such as a muscle cell, or a skin cell etc. 

Meanwhile, haploid number means that the number of chromosomes in the cell only have half of the chromosome number than that of the diploid cells. These haploid cells are usually found in gametes of sexually reproducing organisms, such as human, we have 23 chromosomes in our sex cells. This is important because we have to make sure the chromosome number of offsprings are not doubled, as during sexual reproduction, male and female gametes fuse together to form a zygote. 

Therefore, to calculate the haploid number of a cell, we can divide the diploid number by 2, which is 64/2, and the answer would be 32.
