Biology
1 answer:
KATRIN_1 [288]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

In physics, electromagnetic radiation (EM radiation or EMR) refers to the waves (or their quanta, photons) of the electromagnetic field, propagating (radiating) through space, carrying electromagnetic radiant energy. It includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared, (visible) light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays.

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are a few types of atoms that can be a part of a plant one day, an animal the next day, and then travel downstream as a part of a river’s water the following day. These atoms can be a part of both living things like plants and animals, as well as non-living things like water, air, and even rocks. The same atoms are recycled over and over in different parts of the Earth. This type of cycle of atoms between living and non-living things is known as a biogeochemical cycle.

All of the atoms that are building blocks of living things are a part of biogeochemical cycles. The most common of these are the carbon and nitrogen cycles.

Tiny atoms of carbon and nitrogen are able to move around the planet through these cycles. For example, an atom of carbon is absorbed from the air into the ocean water where it is used by little floating plankton doing photosynthesis to get the nutrition they need. There is the possibility that this little carbon atom becomes part of the plankton’s skeleton, or a part of the skeleton of the larger animal that eats it, and then part of a sedimentary rock when the living things die and only bones are left behind. Carbon that is a part of rocks and fossil fuels like oil, coal, and natural gas may be held away from the rest of the carbon cycle for a long time. These long-term storage places are called “sinks”. When fossil fuels are burned, carbon that had been underground is sent into the air as carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas.

Recently, people have been causing these biogeochemical cycles to change. When we cut down forests, make more factories, and drive more cars that burn fossil fuels, the way that carbon and nitrogen move around the Earth changes. These changes add more greenhouse gases in our atmosphere and this causes climate change.

Carbon cycleThe Carbon Cycle

The element carbon is a part of seawater, the atmosphere, rocks such as limestone and coal, soils, as well as all living things. On our dynamic planet, carbon is able to move from one of these realms to another as a part of the carbon cycle.

Carbon moves from the atmosphere to plants. In the atmosphere, carbon is attached to oxygen in a gas called carbon dioxide (CO2). Through the process of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is pulled from the air to produce food made from carbon for plant growth.

Carbon moves from plants to animals. Through food chains, the carbon that is in plants moves to the animals that eat them. Animals that eat other animals get the carbon from their food too.

Carbon moves from plants and animals to soils. When plants and animals die, their bodies, wood and leaves decays bringing the carbon into the ground. Some is buried and will become fossil fuels in millions and millions of years.

Carbon moves from living things to the atmosphere. Each time you exhale, you are releasing carbon dioxide gas (CO2) into the atmosphere. Animals and plants need to get rid of carbon dioxide gas through a process called respiration.

Carbon moves from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are burned. When humans burn fossil fuels to power factories, power plants, cars and trucks, most of the carbon quickly enters the atmosphere as carbon dioxide gas. Each year, five and a half billion tons of carbon is released by burning fossil fuels. Of this massive amount, 3.3 billion tons stays in the atmosphere. Most of the remainder becomes dissolved in seawater.

Carbon moves from the atmosphere to the oceans. The oceans, and other bodies of water, absorb some carbon from the atmosphere. The carbon is dissolved into the water.

Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas and traps heat in the atmosphere. Without it and other greenhouse gases, Earth would be a frozen world. But since the start of the Industrial Revolution about 150 years ago humans have burned so much fuel and released so much carbon dioxide into the air that global climate has risen over one degree Fahrenheit. The atmosphere has not held this much carbon for at least 420,000 years according to data from ice cores. The recent increase in amounts of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide is having a significant impact on the warming of our planet.

HELP I NEED A SCIENTIFIC MODEL AND PARAGHRAPH ABOUT ATOMIC THEROY WILL GIVE BRANLIEST AND POINTS
saveliy_v [14]

<h2>Atomic Theory:</h2><h2>Introduction</h2>

The atomic theory of Atoms Summed up is the idea that all matter is made of tiny particles that are imperceptible to the mortal eye; these particles are named Atoms

<h2>Paragraph 1:</h2>

John Dalton was the first to consider that all matter was made of tiny particles known as atoms. He invented the idea that matter is formed of atoms varying in weight.

<h2>Paragraph 2:</h2>

I created this model of the dissimilarities between three kinds of matter-- solids, liquids, and gases. The distance between atoms in each state tells us what type of matter we observe.

The Drawing is on the file

The End.

We know that oil floats on water and do not mix
<span>
What happens to the oil when you first pour it in? It flows into the water, but then seperates.

Why does this happen? oil is lighter than water and the molecules of the oil are attracted to the other oil molecules, not water, the water molecules the same

What kinds of animals would be most affected by an oil spill at the beginning? animals that live their lives near the surface of the ocean. Why? because now the water that was clear and free-flowing is now dark and sticky. oil also changes the way how some animals survive so make their ways less effective. one example are birds like pelicans

Use a spoon to stir the oil for 30 seconds.


Answer the following questions:
What natural action stirs the real ocean? ocean currents caused by wind and the earth's roation
What happened to the oil? went back to the top
Even if you can’t see it, is all the oil still in your ocean? yes
Which animals in the ocean become affected after wave and current action causes some of the oil to settle to the bottom, or be absorbed into the water?  bottom-feeders
Add a splash of dish detergent to the mixture and stir.


Answer the following questions:
What happened to the oil? it mixed with the water Is it all still in the ocean? yes
Sometimes cleanup efforts involve dumping a soap mixture over a spill area. Why is this done? to bond the oil to the detergent and the detergent to the water. so they can grab all the oil
What might be a negative effect of dumping the soap?</span> soap has chemicals that could upset the ballance of the ecosystem and kil some animals/plants
