B) The balloon would become smaller because the air molecules inside the balloon would get closer together.
C) The balloon would become larger because the air molecules on the inside of the balloon would expand.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

As we move higher in the sky, the atmospheric pressure decreases. The relationship of pressure with volume is given by Boyle's Law.

This law states that the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.

Mathematically,

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

where,

P is the pressure of the gas.

V is the volume of the gas.

If the pressure of the gas decreases, the volume increases and vice-versa.

As written above, the pressure at higher levels decreases, which results in the increase of volume. Hence, the balloon expands.

therefore, the correct answer is option C.

Are osprey birds friendly toward human? Do they come into contact with humans?
marusya05 [52]
Osprey are a type of Hawk, which can kill small rodents, other birds and possibly small pets like cats. Although Osprey usually stay away from humans as most feral birds do if provoked they can fight back. They have claws and a sharp beak so it is recommended to leave them alone due to this. You should stay away from all wildlife regardless of how friendly they appear to be because they could carry dieses that make that act differently.

Which human activity has the lowest effect on global stability?
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

I think the answer is C

''Reusing plastic bags''

Explanation:

Removing carnivores from a forest  has a great impact on a environment since the population of the herbivores will increases drastically and the dynamic equilibrium of the area will be greatly effected.

If we look at choice B '' Heating homes with fossil fuels'', this will also have a big impact on the earth since fossil fuels are non-renewable and take centuries to form. Heating homes with them will result in loss of fossil fuels.

Now let's look at choice D ''Adding heavy metals to the water supply''. Heavy metals are dangerous to the human health and even cause cancer. This will cause thousands of deaths and will also have a great impact on the global stability.

This leaves choice C ''Reusing plastic bags''. This will cause less pollution and less harm to wildlife but doesn't have any big threat to the global stability. As in changing the world population or causing deaths in large numbers.

so I think choice C is the answer
