Answer:

1. A strong wind blows across a Midwestern prairie.

Explanation:

As you may already know, wind is a source of energy. Keeping this in mind we can realize that among the options given in the above question, the only one that shows the flow of this energy through a natural system is the option.

Natural system is that which occurs naturally in nature without the intervention of man. With this we can say that the blades of a wind turbine is not a natural system because it was manufactured by man. Therefore, options 2,3 and 4 are not the correct answer to your question.

A prairie, on the other hand, is a natural system, which is not man-made and occurs naturally in nature. For this reason, we can say that the correct answer to your question is option 1.

4. What specific tool is used to way the cost of benefit versus cleanup in the environment?
ohaa [14]

Answer:  Marginal analysis

Explanation:

Marginal analysis is used to evaluate the marginal benefits and marginal costs of reducing pollution.

As the complexity of environmental protection grows, inexpensive and simple ways of mitigating emissions start to decrease, and more costly approaches need to be used and the marginal cost is increasing. Often, marginal benefits are reduced as environmental security increases.  

As the amount of protection for the environment rises to, the marginal costs outweigh the marginal benefits. Society is not allocating resources effectively at this stage of environmental security, since so many resources are giving up to reduce emissions.

As the scope of the environmental regulation grows, additional environmental spending will likely result in increased marginal costs.

Hence, marginal analysis is a specific tool used to way the cost of benefit versus cleanup in the environment.

Identify the correct statement about differences between rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER). a. The outer surface of sm
Inga [223]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

All eukaryotic cells possess certain membranous organs called organnelles. One of these organnelles is the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a membranous network that forms a flattened sac in the cytoplasm. The ER in eukaryotes can be found as two types; Rough ER and Smooth ER.

The Rough and Smooth ER are both part of the endomembrane system but distinct in physical appearance as ribosomes are attached to the outer surface of the Rough ER, giving it its name. This physical distinction is responsible for their functional distinction. Rough ER functions mainly to modify proteins produced in the ribosomes attached to it while smooth ER modifies lipids.
