Earth’s polar caps quickly losing ice. Coral reefs bleaching to a chalky white. Stronger storms devastating islands and cities, claiming lives and destroying homes. Those aren’t claims of what our world faces in a warmer future. Those climate change impacts are already happening — and due to worsen. That’s the finding of a new report from the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, or IPCC.
The United Nations issued a summary of the new assessment on September 25. It’s the panel’s first comprehensive update on how human-driven climate change is upsetting not only Earth’s oceans, but also its frozen regions, or cryosphere. Just how severe things get will depend on whether most countries lower their releases of climate-warming greenhouse gases — or just continue pumping large quantities of them into the air.
The report focuses on two potential scenarios. One involves cutting greenhouse gases enough to limit global warming to around 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) above preindustrial levels. By the way, the world is already more than halfway there; global temps have warmed by 1.1 degrees C (2 degrees F) since 1900, according to a second new report. Prepared by the World Meteorological Organization, it was released September 22. In a second scenario, pollution continues at its current pace to where Earth eventually warms some 4 degrees C (7.2 degrees F).
Science News for Students took a look at the report’s predictions. They offer a scary view of potential changes that would impact societies and our natural world. They’re based on the latest available science.
I believe that they’re norepinephrine (NE), and the acetylcholine (Ach). Hope this helps!
The answer is B. The oak tree. Autotrophs make their own food.
Pediculosis capitis also known as
the head lice infestation is the infection of the head hair and scalp by the
head louse (Pediculus humanus capitis). Head lice are spread by direct contact
with the hair of someone who is infected. Itching from lice bites is common and
may cause problems with sleeping. The itch may not develop for up to six weeks
when a person is infected. Symptoms may begin much more quickly if a person is
infected again. However, it is not a serious condition.
The three (3) measures the nurse
will inform the mother about to address the infestation of pediculosis capitis
were
<span>a. </span>Combing
the hair frequently with a fine tooth comb or shaving the head completely.
<span>b. </span>Washing
the Child’s clothing in hot water with detergents
<span>c. </span>Applying
Spinosad 0.9% topical suspension on his hair.
Answer:
If all the trees are dark-colored (without lichens) like the tree on the right, the moth that would most likely survive longest is the dark-colored moth.
Explanation:
This is because of natural selection (which means "A process in which individual organisms or phenotypes that possess favourable traits are more likely to survive and reproduce: the differential survival and reproduction of phenotypes.") The dark-colored moth is best adapted to its surroundings compared to the light-colored moth, and it will survive the longest (of the two) according to this definition of natural selection.
Hope this helps :)
