Even though it is slums we are talking about, and we know how terrible the conditions are, still there's always some surprises (negative ones unfortunately). Specifically in Mumbai, it is surprising that big portion of the people living in the slums do not have access to city services, they do not have enough water even thought the city itself is surrounded by water, more then half of the population of Mumbai lives in slums (around 55%), most of the residents do not have toilets and have to pay for public toilets...
Answer: Its presence is a good determinant of past hot climates. Its absence can also indicate cold climates.
Explanation:
18O and 16O are oxygen Isotopes, and are used in determining past climates. Heavier than the 16O with 10 neutrons and 8 protons, the 18O does not evaporate as easily and because of this, higher amounts are found in the tropics.
Together, they serve as good determinants of past climate by checking for their ratio in fossils.
Also the 18O isotopes are not present in polar regions as they precipitate before getting to higher altitudes. Cold areas, on the other hand, are high in 16O as they get trapped in glaciers. When climate changes in a location, the quantity of both of these oxygen isotopes also changes.
Answer: They are not.
Explanation:
When it comes to molecular bonding, a single additional atom can change the characteristics of the compound. This is why Carbon Dioxide is different from Carbon Monoxide even though they both contain only Carbon and Oxygen atoms albeit in different quantities.
In this scenario the compounds described are Hematite which has two iron atoms to three oxygen atoms and Magnetite which has three iron atoms to four oxygen atoms. The presence of the different number of the same atoms made these compounds different.
Answer:
Explanation:
A white dwarf star typically has a diameter similar to the of the Earth, which is an order of magnitude smaller than the diameter of the Sun.
The listed objects from largest to smallest would be:
- The Sun
- Saturn
- Earth
- Pluto
- a small asteroid
The Sun is a main sequence star. Saturn is a gas giant with an extensive system of rings and moons. Earth is a rocky planet. Pluto is a dwarf planet. A small asteroid is a remnant of the materials leftover from solar system formation that did not coalesce to form planets.
