<span>Bipedalism, or the ability to walk on two legs, is one of the things that separates humans from apes. Walking on two legs isn't a characteristic exclusive to humans: birds do it, so do kangaroos, and even our closest cousins, the apes, as well as most of the other primates, do it occasionally. </span>

Bipedalism is a form of terrestrial locomotion where an organism moves by means of its two rear limbs or legs.

Temperature inversions occur naturally in the stratosphere and thermosphere, but also occur closer to the surface of earth in th
skelet666 [1.2K]

Temperature inversion or thermal inversion is a phenomenon during which the temperature increase when there is an increase in the altitude. It is an uncommon process that happens in the troposphere-the layer of atmosphere closest to the earth.  

When there is an increase in temperature with altitude that warm air acts as a blockage for the cool air near the surface of the earth. So this is just opposite to the normal behavior of the air, where it becomes cooler with an increase in altitude.

So how air circulation behaves during inversion?

So as we said that the cool air nearer to the earth will be blocked by a layer of warm air. This blockage will hinder the circulation of air upwards from the lower layers. Let’s see how:

• As we know that, warm air is less dense and more buyout than cool air and normally less dense warm air is close to the earth and cool air is in above layers. But when the process is reversed, this warm air acts like a blanket for the proper circulation of air. Due to this, many environmental pollutants which normally leave the earth during air circulation get trapped in our air.  

• The trapped environmental pollutants like nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons get convert into harmful ozone that ultimately deteriorates the quality of air and causes problems like smog.

• The improper air circulation also causes suspension of the harmful gases near the earth instead of allowing them to leave the earth atmosphere. This ultimately causes air pollution.  

• When smoke will not rise, carbon dioxide will be build up in the atmosphere; this will cause greenhouse effect and global warming.

Therefore, air circulation behaves very different during temperature inversion process and poses hazardous effects on global climate.

Hope it helps! :)

Which of the following results when a person’s hand is near an open flame?
Ede4ka [16]

Given what we know, we can confirm that when a person's hand is near an open flame, the brain is required to integrate incoming and outgoing information. Option C is correct.

<h3>What happens when a person's hand is near a flame?</h3>

We can say that the information from the heat being generated by the flame is received by sensory neurons in the person's hand. This information generates a pain response which is integrated as incoming information in the brain, which then produces a motor response to move the hand away from the flame, as an outgoing signal.

Therefore, we can confirm that when a person's hand is near an open flame, the brain is required to integrate incoming and outgoing information. Option C is correct.
