In most cases the temperature must increase for thermal expansion to occur. Most substances expand as temperature increases because the atoms or molecules vibrate faster as temperature increases and experience greater separation.

"<u>some of the effects of urbanization</u>"
<em>Poor air and water quality, insufficient water availability, waste-disposal problems, and high energy consumption are exacerbated by the increasing population density and demands of urban environments</em>
<u><em>"hope this helps"</em></u>
The answer to that question is C
Index fossils are used to determine the relative ages of rock and fossils and are also used to define the boundaries between geologic periods.
<u>Option: A</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
The fossils which are recognized as fossils guides or indicator fossils are used to classify and recognize geological or faunal periods, termed as index fossils. It must be of short vertical reach, wide geographic distribution and swift patterns in evolution. It helps to assess the rock layers ' age and helps to date other fossils found close and around them. For an instance, Ammonites were abundant in the Mesozoic period between 245 to 65 mya, they have not been found after the Cretaceous era, as they became endangered during the K-T extinction (65 mya).
Efficiency of heat engine is determined by the ratio of difference in temperature of cold from hot reservoir to the temperature of hot reservoir over temperature of hot reservoir.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
Efficiency is defined as the output from the input. So it is the ratio of energy output to the energy input. In case of temperature, it is the change in temperature from hot reservoir to cold reservoir with the overall hot reservoir temperature.
Thus, option A is the most suitable as the heat will be transferred from high temperature to low temperature. So the hot reservoir will be releasing the energy. So the conversion of hot reservoir temperature to cool reservoir temperature is defined as the efficiency. Thus, option A is the most suitable.
