Acid rain is rainfall made acidic by atmospheric pollution that it causes environment harm, mainly to the forests and lakes. The main cause of acidic rainfall is the industrial burning of coal and other fossil fuels, the waste gases from which contain sulfur and nitrogen oxides which combine with atmospheric water to form acids. It is important to explain that the more sulfur impurities that there are, then the more sulfur iv oxide is released into the atmosphere, causing acid deposition in the rain water and into cities and towns.

This question is unfortunately incomplete. The burning of coal containing sulfur can lead to the release of sulfur oxide compounds to the atmosphere. These compounds <span>combine with atmospheric water to form sulphuric acid. Sulphuric acid lowers the pH of atmospheric water vapour, and during rainfall events, precipitated rainfall will be of a low pH (acid rain).</span>

Proteins are basic nutrients comprising biomolecules, which are made up of long chains of Amino acids.

They have various functions in our body :

  • they make up our hair, nails, bones etc

  • they helps in recovery of damaged tissues (therefore known as body - building food)

  • the structure and functions of protein depends on base sequence of nucleotides in the DNA coding for that specific protein.

Explain why crops in the arctic grow larger than normal during the summer months
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

More sunlight, more photosynthesis

Explanation:

This is because when the sunlight hits the leaves, it allows photosynthesis to occur. But when you have extended periods of sunlight, like summer, it causes photosynthesis to continue for a longer time, which causes rapid energy storage. This makes excess food for the plant which gives the plant more energy for growth and pollination.

Hope this clears it up for ya:)
