Answer: B.CFC

Explanation:

The chlorofluorocarbons or CFCs are the hydrochlorofluorocarbons that are fully or partially halogenated with the chlorine and fluorine as halogen. It is a volatile derivative of methane, propane and ethane.

The fluorides and chlorides reacts with the oxygen present in the ozone layer present in the stratosphere of the atmosphere. This may lead to the disintegration of the ozone layer and results in the formation of a hole. The ozone layer basically function in prevention of incident radiations like UV and infrared coming from the sun. Due to such damage the rays will enter the earth atmosphere and likely to affect the organisms in the biosphere. These radiations are capable of causing instead mutations which may lead to skin cancer.

The history of Taurus
poizon [28]

Answer:

<em>The zodiacal sign of Taurus does not coincide with the constellation of Taurus. It is a continuation of the sign of Aries and represents the second 30 degrees of the zodiacal circle. The sign of Aries represents the beginning of spring and with it the beginning of life, while Taurus is a fixed sign that continues what Aries has started. Life is in full bloom in the sign of Taurus. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>The stars in Taurus constellation host two open clusters, the Pleiades and the Hyades and are mostly located at the end of the sign of Taurus and the beginning of the zodiacal sign of Gemini. In the Early Bronze Age it marked the location of the Sun during the spring equinox, just like the constellation of Aries represented the equinox over 2000 years ago. The constellation of Taurus was linked to it 5000 to 1700 BC, before the precession of the equinox moved our perspective to the sign of Aries.</em>

If a hemoglobin molecule comes into close contact with a respiring cell, the presence of CO2 in the environment will cause hemog
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

No, when the concentration of carbon dioxide is high, such as in peripheral tissues, CO2 binds to hemoglobin and the affinity for O2 decreases, causing it to release.

Explanation:

The O2 molecule is reversibly combined with the heme portion of the hemoglobin. When the partial pressure of O2 is high, as in the case of pulmonary capillaries, for example, the binding of O2 to hemoglobin and the release of carbon dioxide are favored, this is known as the Haldane effect. If, on the contrary, when the concentration of carbon dioxide is high, such as in peripheral tissues, CO2 is bound to hemoglobin and the affinity for O2 decreases, causing it to release, this is known as the effect Bohr.
