PLS HELP ME WILL MARK BRAINLYEST: Why is it important that people use fewer non-renewable resources and more renewable resources
Alexandra [31]

Answer: First off, this makes us dependent on something that is finite. Non-renewable resources such as fossil fuels will eventually run out due to the fact that the dead organisms that have been undergoing the process of becoming carbon (more or less) for millions of years won't have anything to replenish them. Along with that, environmental problems occur like we all are seeing in the United Kingdom and even in the US.

4. Which event would be the most predictable one year in advance of the event?
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

1. an eclipse of the Sun

2. state (phase) of matter

3. 5.0 g/cm3

Explanation:

1. Eclipse of the sun occurs when the planetary bodies align in such a way that causes the moon to block sunlight from reaching the Earth. The eclipse of the Sun will be the most predictable occurrence because it follows a pattern of occurrence. Eclipse of the sun occurs after a specific period of time, hence, based on this, scientists can predict that when it will occur next using its previous pattern of occurrence.

2. Considering the following groups: Group A: water, aluminum, water vapor

Group B: gasoline, ice, air

Group C: alcohol, iron, oxygen

One would realize that each constituent of each group exists in a particular state of matter. For example, in group B, gasoline is a liquid, ice is a solid while air is a gaseous mixture. Same applies for group A and C where water and alcohol are liquids, iron and aluminum are solids, while water vapor and oxygen are gases.

This shows that the STATE (PHASE) OF MATTER was the basis of classification.

What information can be obtained from the number of colonies obtained on a plated medium?
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Directly counting blood cells or tissue cells by using a hemocytometer can determine the concentration of a known volume. Counting the number of colonies that arise on a pour plate can calculate the concentration by multiplying the count by the volume spread on the pour plate.
