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.
I dont really know b and c neither.</span>

Non example of mitochondrion
Yuliya22 [10]
The number of mitochondria per cell varies widely; for example, in humans, erythrocytes (red blood cells) do not contain any mitochondria, whereas liver cells and muscle cells may contain hundreds or even thousands. The only eukaryotic organism known to lack mitochondria is the oxymonad Monocercomonoides species.

Union of haploid and diploid gamete results in a zygote that is
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Triploid

Explanation:

The process whereby gametes produced by different sexes of the same species of organism come together is called FERTILIZATION. A gamete is said to be HAPLOID (n) if it contains one set of chromosomes while it is DIPLOID (2n) if it contains two sets of chromosomes.

Hence, if an haploid (n) and diploid (2n) gamete unites, a zygote that is TRIPLOID (3n) emerges or forms. A triploid zygote will have three sets of chromosomes i.e. n + 2n = 3n.
