Answer:

Geo thermal : Nuclear reactions

Bio mass : plants

Solar : sun rays

Hydro power : Water

Explanation:

Geothermal energy is also used to directly heat individual buildings and to heat multiple buildings with district heating systems. Hot water near the earth's surface is piped into buildings for heat. A district heating system provides heat for most of the buildings in Reykjavik , Iceland.

The major biomass sources currently used are sugar cane and corn to produce bioethanol , and rapeseed for biodiesel production. Other sources are also used such as sunflower seeds, soybean, canola, peanuts, jatropha , coconut and palm oil for biodiesel, and wheat, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and cassava for bioethanol

Conversion of energy from sunlight into electricity

Hydropower or water power is power derived from the energy of falling or fast-running water, which may be harnessed for useful purposes.

What part of Arkansas are the crops grown?

Genrish500 [490]

The production of these crops is centered in the eastern third of the state but there are notable concentrations elsewhere, particularly in the river valleys of the Arkansas River (central Arkansas) and the Red River (southwest Arkansas).

What would happen to the possible variation in gametes if the number if chromosome pairs increased from two to three?

Orlov [11]

If each of the pairs of chromosomes was heterozygous (what gives you the highest potential number of different gametes), then the number of possible gametes increases from 4 to 8 for a diploid organism. To figure out how many are possible, raise the number of homologous chromsomes (2 for a diploid organism) to the power of the number of chromosomes. So if you have two different chromosomes (A and B), raise 2 to the 2nd power (or multiply 2 x 2) and you have 4. If you have chromosomes A, B, and C, then you have 2^3, or 2 x 2 x 2 = 8.

To show possible combinations, AaBb gives you AB, Ab, aB, or ab. AaBbCc gives possible gametes of ABC, ABc, AbC, Abc, aBC, aBc, abC, and abc.

Match the following terms and definitions. 1. an electrical nerve impulse sent by nerve fibers to the central nervous system for

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

1. an electrical nerve impulse sent by nerve fibers to the central nervous system for interpretation. Action potential.

2. neurons that detect chemicals such as those found in food. Chemoreceptors.

3. type of eyes many arthropods have; eyes that protrude outward and consist of many lenses. Compound eyes.

4. the structure that gives the response to an environmental change. Effector

5. neurons that detect electrical fields. Electroreceptors.

6. secretion of hormones into the blood stream to affect distant processes. Endocrine.

Explanation:

An action potential is a change in the internal charge of a cell due to depolarization. These changes allow the transmission of a message from any part of the body to the central nervous system. The central nervous system will interpret the message and will give a response.

There are different types of receptors in our bodies. Chemoreceptors are the ones that detect chemicals and produce an action potential or a neurotransmitter. These receptors respond to chemicals. Another type of receptor is the electroreceptors. They detect electrical fields and are only on the skin of aquatic animals.

Compound eyes have a large number of ommatidia. As a result, the anthropods with this type of eyes have a large view angle. In other words, every ommatidium sees an image, and the final product is a combination of all of them.

The effector is the structure that gives an answer once an affector has sent the message to the nervous system that there was a change in the environment.

There are different kinds of secretions, autocrine, paracrine, and endocrine. In the endocrine secretion, the gland secrets hormones into the bloodstream so that they can travel long distances up to their target cell, which is far from the gland.
