What effects do some scientists believe climate change will have on the Great Barrier Reef?

1 answer:

8 0

The answer to this question is D.

Climate change is causing the Earth to gradually increase in temperature, this is causing the warming waters.

Coral has this beneficial relationship with this algae called zooxanthellae. The coral provides a home where the algae provides some nutrients. Zooxanthellae uses photosynthesis to get its own food (It's not getting any inside a coral polyp!)

When there is an increased amount of sunlight there is more photosynthesis occuring, which means more and more algae.

To disprove C, the great barrier reef is KNOWN for its biodiversity. Theres LOTS goin' on down there.

Hope this helps!

In nuclear fission and fusion reactions mass is converted into energy. The average person in US uses around 100,000,000 J of ene

daser333 [38]

Answer:

a) The yearly energy consumption for a US population of 300 million is $3\times 10^{16} J/year$

b) The energy that would be released if a 60 kg person were converted entirely into energy is $5.4\times 10^{18}$ Joules.

c) 180 years would this amount of energy support a population of 300 million.

Explanation:

a) Average energy consumed by single person of US = 100,000,000 J/year

Then 300 million US citizen will consume:

300 million = 300 × 1,000,000 = $3\times 10^8$

The yearly energy consumption for a US population :

$100,000,000 J/year\times 3\times 10^8=3\times 10^{16} J/year$

The yearly energy consumption for a US population of 300 million is $3\times 10^{16} J/year$

b) $E = m\times c^2$

E = Energy from converted mass of m

c = speed of light

Given mass of person = m = 60 kg

$E=60 kg\times (3\times 10^8 m/s)^2 = 5.4\times 10^{18} J$

c) Energy calculated in part (b) = $E=5.4\times 10^{18} J$

The yearly energy consumption for a US population of 300 million in an year = $3\times 10^{16} J/year$

Let the that would be supported by $5.4\times 10^{18}$ Joules of energy be x.

$x\times 3\times 10^{16} J/year=5.4\times 10^{18} J$

$x=\frac{5.4\times 10^{18} J}{3\times 10^{16} J/year}=180 years$

180 years would this amount of energy support a population of 300 million.

As a deep-water wave enters shallow water, the part of the wave in the shallowest water slows down. the deeper-water portion of

Afina-wow [57]

The answer is parallel.

To add, absolute water depth has nothing to do with the difference between shallow and deep-water waves. On the other hand, the ratio of the water’s deep to the wavelength of the wave is that one that determines it. A deep-water wave’s water molecules proceed in a circular orbit while the orbit of the molecules of shallow-water waves molecules’ orbit are elliptical.
