A city is located along the coastline of a peninsula at 25° latitude in the Southern Hemisphere. The land on which the city is b

uilt is primarily flat with karst topography. In recent years, scientists have detected a significant decrease in the amount of ozone in the stratosphere above the region.
Describe the effect of latitude on the amount of sunlight the region receives. Describe how solar intensity will most likely affect the region’s average temperature during the summer and winter months.
What kind of convection cell would be found over a region at this latitude? Describe one way in which this cell affects the movement of air through the region in which the city is located and one way in which this mass movement of air likely affects the region’s climate.
Describe two ways in which the region’s topography is likely to affect its climate.
Describe two ways that the recent decrease in stratospheric ozone poses potential risks to people living in the city

Answer:

The city is in the tropical zone

Explanation:

As revealed in the question, it is likely that the city lies in the tropics. These are the zones that lie in the regions where the temperatures are likely to be in the ranges of  30 degrees and higher. However, the most striking thing is that there will not be a disruption of the in the temperatures as there is no variation in the solar intensity within the region. In addition, there will be a regulation in the temperatures.

A decrease in the ozone concentration means an increase in the intensity of the heat. This leads to the penetration of dangerous UV light that can contribute to skin cancers.

A. The city receives direct sunlight all over the year since it is in tropical zone (less than 30 degrees in latitude). The solar intensity will not cause a significant difference in temperature since the solar intensity itself does not vary significantly. 
<span>d. The decrease in ozone will increase solar intensity and the amount of ultra-violet rays. It may lead to a higher chance of sunburn. People may also have skin cancer because of ultra-violet.

animals cannot produce enzymes to digest cellulose, yet many termite species consume cellulose from plant material as a main par
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Termites have cellulose-digesting protists in their guts.

Explanation:

Termites are able to access nutrients contained in cellulose due to their mutualistic association with some cellulose-digesting protists such as <em>Trichonympha</em> and M<em>ixotricha</em>. The protists produce cellulase in addition to other glycolytic enzymes that work together to convert cellulose to malate.

The malate produced is further metabolized to produce CO_2, hydrogen, acetate and energy in the form of ATP.

The protists get sheltered in the termite's gut in return.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Identity Diffusion

Explanation:

A person whose identity status is Diffusion has not had an identity crisis and has not yet fully realized their social identity or personal traits. Moreover, this person is not seeking to make a commitment to establish his or her identity. It is almost like identity Foreclosure; however, in that stage, the person adopts some traits and qualities of friends and parents.

Explain why bacteria are gram negative​
Neporo4naja [7]

In 1884, a bacteriologist named Christian Gram created a test that could determine if a bacterium had a thick, mesh-like membrane called peptidoglycan. Bacteria with thick peptidoglycan are called gram positive. If the peptidoglycan layer is thin, it's classified as gram negative.
