False.

Radiation is the transfer of heat regardless of the presence of atoms or particles.
There are three types of heat transfer or heat propagation; conduction, convection and radiation. Heat transfer is the process by which heat projects externally however, depending on the temperature and pressure. Also called the movement of heat from a low temperatured state which increases as heat progresses.
Conduction is the heat transfer by contact, immediate contact.
Convection is the transfer of heat through air and water.

A. All living and nonliving things consist of one or more cells.

B. Cells and living organisms are spontaneously created.

C. Cells are the most complex unit of structure and function in living things.

D. A cell is the basic unit of structure and function of all organisms

ANSWER

The correct option is D.

The cell theory is one of the major theories in biology and it states the facts about living cells. The theory states that, the cell is the most basic unit of all organisms and all living organisms are made up of one or more cells. The organisms that are made up of only one cell are described as unicellular while those that possess many cells are described as multi cellular. The theory also states that all cells come from pre-existing cells.

Discuss the implications of each of the following three suggestions that were put forward to overcome the high sulphur dioxide e

Pachacha [2.7K]

1. shut down the factory
This is a suggestion that will not be implemented simply due to the fact that the factory is likely to be bringing profits and meeting the requirements of a specific product or products. Shutting the factory down will mean great losses, which makes this suggestion non-feasible.

2. Move the factory out of the city
First, "moving" a factory is not as easy as it sounds. For a factory to be set up, many factors are considered such as the availability of raw materials and transport cost. Moreover, the emissions will still not be lessened if the factory is simply moved.

3. Increase the height of the factory's chimney
If these emissions are harming the nearby environment, this suggestion will help to reduce those effects. However, the negative effects will inevitably occur if there is a high level of emission of sulfur dioxide occurring, such as acid rain. Therefore, this does not solve the problem, only changes its nature.
