A. radiation

Explanation:

The heat transfer mechanism that causes the surface of the earth to gain heat is  by radiation.

Electromagnetic radiation is able to cause the heating of the surface by radiation.

Radiation is one of the methods of heat transfer the does not involve any particle.

The surface of the earth absorb some of the radiation and it causes them to warm up.

Explain how you were able to use your knowledge of how different types of blood react with anti A, anti B, and anti Rh antibodie
dybincka [34]

Depending upon the clumping reaction with anti A , anti B and anti Rh antibodies the blood types are determined.

Explanation:

Agglutination (clumping) will occur when blood that contains the particular antigen is mixed with the particular antibody.

A+ have Agglutination with Anti-A ,Anti-Rh and No agglutination with Anti-B.

A- have Agglutination with Anti-A and No agglutination with Anti-B and Anti-Rh.

B+ have Agglutination with Anti-B Anti-Rh and No agglutination with Anti-A.

B- have Agglutination with Anti-B and No agglutination with Anti-B and Anti-Rh.

Rh+ have Agglutination with Anti-A and Anti-Rh and No agglutination with Anti-B.

Rh- have No Agglutination with Anti-A and Anti-B and Anti-Rh.

Which of the following is true about the distribution of water in the hydrosphere?
mr Goodwill [35]
<span>The answer is: C. The amount of water in the hydrosphere remains constant. 

</span>The hydrosphere denotes the entire water available worldwide in lakes and streams, subsurface water, the ice of glaciers, and water vapor in the atmosphere. The water cycle is the process that converts liquid water to atmospheric water vapor (and vice versa) throughout the world.

3rd law of thermodynamics..<br><br> 2 Different Examples((Thnks))
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The third law of thermodynamics states that "the entropy of a perfect crystal of a pure substance approaches zero as the temperature approaches zero" (Wikipedia).

One example of the third law of thermodynamics has to do with steam. Steam is gaseous water. Since it is a gas, its molecules are free to move around therefore its entropy is high. When the temperature of the steam is decreased below 100 degrees, the molecules of steam loose energy and turn into liquid water and do not move as freely as they did in the gaseous state. If the temperature is further decreased to yield ice at zero degrees, the molecules of water are "frozen" in their positions and the entropy of the system decreases to zero.

Also, the ions in ionic crystal solids move around when the substance is in solution or in molten state hence the substance conducts electricity. When the ionic substance is in solid state, the ions do not move about and the entropy of the solid system tends towards zero.
