The global warming is the uniform heating of the globe due to the effect of greenhouse gases.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Global warming is thus the theory that says that earth is warming up with an increase in temperature over time due to increment in the greenhouse gases.

These are greenhouse gases that are getting increased due to the human activity or say over exploitation of the natural resources. The heating of the globe has caused ozone layer depletion which is also causing warming.

An atom with the expected number of neutrons, protons, and electrons is called a(n)
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Stable atom

Explanation:

A stable atom is one that has a balanced nuclear inter-particle force reaction as such the binding energy of a stable atom is sufficient to permanently keep the nucleus as one unit. Examples of a stable atom are the atoms of  monoisotopic elements such as fluorine, sodium, iodine, gold, aluminium, and cobalt.

In a stable atom the expected number of proton, neutron, and electron are present while in an unstable atom or radioactive atom, there are more than the expected number of neutrons or protons, such that the internal energy of the nucleus is excessive and more than the binding energy, which can lead to radioactive decay.

What is the saturated zone
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Saturated zone is area below the water table in which the soil is completely saturated with groundwater.

Explanation:

The saturated zone lies below the ground. It is mainly the lower zone of rock along with the water table where pore spaces are completely filled with water. Even the saturated zone is sometimes separated into 2 subzones: the phreatic zone and the capillary fringe.

The area where pores spaces are not saturated with water is also unsaturated zone. Localized saturated zones can occur within the unsaturated zone. The unsaturated zone lies above the groundwater table.

PLS HELP<br><br> compare longitudinal and transverse waves
babymother [125]
<span>A transverse wave is one for which the direction of oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave whereas, for longitudinalwaves oscillations are in the direction of propagation. Ripples in pond water move about the surface of water and they simultaneously move away from the point-0 too.</span><span>
Longitudinal waves include sound waves(vibrations in pressure, particle of displacement, and particle velocity propagated in an elastic medium) and seismic P-waves (created by earthquakes and explosions). In longitudinal waves, the displacement of the medium is parallel to the propagation of thewave.
