Answer:

The letter D is the right answer

Explanation:

Even in this century, the Earth's temperature will be 1.5ºC higher than in the 19th century, when the British invested in carbon-burning processes that had recently created the industry.

Scientists' predictions for the future of the Earth, in the face of climate change, include more intense droughts and cyclones, more acidic oceans, extinction of species that guarantee ecological balance. This is because due to the increase in the average air temperature on our planet, the polar caps and ice at the poles will melt at an ever increasing speed, causing the increase in ocean levels, causing flooding and destroying part of our biodiversity, besides In addition, evaporation will increase by drying up rivers and causing us serious problems.

The increase in salinity, however, is not a result of rising earth temperatures.

kogti [31]

Answer:

MARS

Explanation:

Mars represents the 4th planet of the solar system, being next to the earth. It is comprised of a hard and solid surface and the average surface temperature of Mars is extremely cold, which is roughly about -60°C. The atmosphere of Mars is very thin, which is dominantly comprised of CO₂ gas (almost 95%), along with some molecular Nitrogen (3%) as well as there is the presence of Argon (2%). In addition to this, it is also composed of dust clouds within its atmosphere. There is the absence of a magnetic field in Mars, due to which the solar wind highly affects the atmosphere of Mars.

Bond [772]

During cellular respiration, which is a part of metabolism, one molecule of glucose produces a maximum yield of 38 molecules of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). ATP is the energy form that cells use to function and has also been often called the "currency" of the cells.

The whole process begins with breakdown of food by the digestive system right down to their monomer units. Carbohydrates are broken down into glucose, which is carried by blood to all cells of the body.

Each cell takes in glucose and breaks it down through the respiration process that begins with glycolysis in the cytoplasm which yields 2 ATP molecules, then onward into the mitochondria of the cell where Krebs cycle and electron transport chain processes generate 34 to 36 more molecules of ATP.

Describe the evidence scientists discovered which demonstrate the evolution of whales from land-based mammals to water-based mam
Bumek [7]

Answer: We have found fossils that share specific bony traits that are found only in all whales but absent in every other mammal group, indicating descent from a shared common ancestor with modern whales, and these fossils had legs fully adapted for walking on land, and fundamentally identical to those of older mammals that precede the shared common ancestor that these mammals share with whales.

This tells us that the shared common ancestor of whales and these mammals with legs almost certainly had legs themselves, and inherited those legs from their own older mammal ancestors.

Therefore, whales have ancestors in their lineage that walked on land with legs.

(We also have multiple fossils of ancient whales that had legs transitional in form between fully terrestrial walking legs and flippers adapted for swimming, and modern whales still possess a remnant hip bone buried deep in their bodies.)
