5. The answer is D. Non-renewable resources lay be cheap, but they release harmful carbon dioxide, which pollutes the environment. And eventually, they will run out. They are, as the name suggests, non-renewable.

6. The answer is A. Renewable resources are harder and more expensive to harvest, but they are unlimited and cause little to no harm to the environment, depending what resource you are using.

7. The answer is A. Particular renewable resources ( i.e sunlight or geothermal energy) are unreliable and can only be found in the right places under the right conditions (i.e on a sunny day or a geyser). They're also more expensive since they're harder to access/convert into electricity.

8. The correct answers are D and E.
Technology helps us predict future problems and solve them before they even happen, and things like solar panels and dams help us use alternative energy, which is much better for the environment than things like coal or oil.

9. The correct answers are A and D. Biodiesel is made from various oils and animal fats (unwanted waste), and it is renewable.

10. The correct answer is A. Biodiesel is more expensive to make than regular diesel, and more facilities would have to be built.

Good luck on your assignment!

slava [35]

Answer:

After a cell was treated with a certain chemical, the  ribosomes stopped functioning. The cell activity immediately affected by this change in ribosome function is protein synthesis.

Explanation:

The basic structural units of all living things are known as cells. Inside the cells, specialized structures called ribosomes are present, which synthesize proteins. The protein synthesis in a eukaryotic cell consists of two processes, transcription and translation.

The transcription process takes place in nucleus, where the information from a DNA strand is copied into a single stranded messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule using RNA polymerase enzyme. During the ending of transcription, the completed mRNA strand detaches from DNA and exits the nucleus and goes into a ribosome in the cytoplasm. In the ribosome, translation occurs where the genetic code in mRNA is read and protein is synthesized. These proteins are used by cells to perform important functions such as repairing cellular damage, maintain cellular structure, create hormones, cell division etc.
