Discuss why short term predictions of earthquakes are not yet entirely reliable, while volcanoes are more easily predicted?

Answer:

As discussed below.

Explanation:

  • Predicting earthquakes is a very complex task as compared to that of the volcanic eruptions that take place as a consequence of these quakes. Not even the USGS can accurately predict these earthquakes as an earthquake occurs from deep within the layers of the earth and thus it is quite difficult to predict how shallow these depths are.  
  • <u>Monitoring and predicting the behavior</u> of an active or extinct or dominant type of volcano is much easier as they can be studied based on magma and lava, for example, the swelling inside a volcano can predict that magma has accumulated near the surface.
  • Movement of magma and gases through the hydrothermal vents can be done through the thermal monitoring system also a volcano can bee seen on the surface and a earthquake in the seismic wave form underneath the surface is not.

  • Lignin is heavily involved in the construction of plant tissues and cell walls.
  • The main result of distillation is the separation of elements or components of a liquid.
  • The keyword to remember for fermentation is the action of enzymes.

Which items describe possible solutions to air pollution?
Radda [10]

Following are the correct options for this question:

  • Build more windmills
  • Develop cost-efficient solar energy
  • Improve gas mileage in cars
  • Reduce the use of nonrenewable energy sources

Any undesirable change occurs in the air due to addition of pollutants is called air pollution. The major air pollutants are sulfur dioxide which is released from the combustion of fossil fuels like coal, petroleum and from factories. Bedsides, sulfur dioxide dust and smokes are other pollutants. Building of more wind mills and developing low cost solar energy will reduce air pollution as they will provide clean energy and will reduce dependency on coal burning in thermal power plant. Improving as mileage in cars will also reduce emission of sulfur dioxide, hence reduce air pollution. Building of more wind mills and developing low cost solar energy are renewable source of energy, will reduce use of nonrenewable energy sources such as fossil fuels.
