Question 10 (1 point) Saved 10. What is the primary cause of higher productivity in the photic zone of the ocean? O a. increased
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

b. increased temperatures

Explanation:

  • The primary reason for the productivity in the Photo zones is due to the influence of major factors like the Nutrients, light, and grazing of animals. The rate at which the plants are eaten by herbivorous.
  • Upwelling of cool, water from the bottom and interaction of warm waters from the above that derives nutrient-rich water to the surface. These upwelling can be consciously be caused by the winds and the depth of light penetrates down the layer of the water.

Where do scientists fit into the process of making environmental laws?
4vir4ik [10]

hello there

Andrea's point is probably the answer you're looking for, however, you should keep in mind that many (most?) environmental laws are driven more by politics than by the available data. Scientists do research on any number of topics (environmental or not) that have implications for our society. We (scientists) like to think that policy makers take our data and results into consideration when drafting legislation, but I would say that in my experience this rarely happens. For one, there have rarely been any federal legislators who understand science. Even the few physicians who've gone into politics seem largely to fail to understand very basic tenets of science, or at least they don't often demonstrate it with their political actions. Leaving environmental issues, for example, if politicians took science into account, there would be no discussion in any school district in the country about whether or not evolution should be taught in schools, as there are simply *NO* scientists who are qualified to have an opinion who would suggest it shouldn't. Environmental issues are not really any different.

What are landforms that can cause an earthquake
lozanna [386]

Answer:

The boundaries where the tectonic plates meet are the areas of the world with the most violent natural earthquake activity. When the plates grind against each other along plate boundaries, the rocks are under so much pressure that sometimes they heat up and fold, creating mountain ranges, hills and valleys.
