The correct answer is - C. Volcanic derived carbon dioxide gas bubbled from the lake and suffocated people and animals nearby.
In the summer of 1986, more specifically on the August 21st, a big tragedy happened in Cameroon. The Lake Nyos, located in the northwestern part of the country experienced a limnic eruption. This eruption triggered the release of very large amounts of carbon dioxide from the lake. The exact amount of carbon dioxide that was released is debatable, and the general consensus is that it was between 100,000 and 300,000 tons of the gas, though there are suggestions that it was up to 1.6 million tons.
The gas spread around very quickly, and being heavier than the air it stuck very low. In a radius of around 25 km from the lake, lot of people and animals were suffocated. The estimates are that 1746 people died and around 3,500 livestock died, not even counting the damage that has been done to the wild animals.
<u>ANSWER:</u>
The statement "the extreme pressure and freezing temperatures of the deep ocean make it dangerous to send humans to the greatest ocean depths" best explains why scientists depend on submersibles to study ocean features .
<u>EXPLANATION:</u>
- The oceans are so vast and deep that humans cannot withstand the pressure in depths.
- Submersibles are developed in such a manner that they can travel to the deepest parts of the ocean and study ocean life.
- Submersibles are vehicles that have the capability to carry humans as well to the deep ocean floors or these can be controlled in an automatic manner.
- The submersibles are provided with tools and technologies that can record ocean floor features and make their study possible.
In order to get to the result we will need to use the scale and the numbers that are provided of the dimensions of the room.
The dimensions of the room on the floor plan are 17.8 inches by 21.2 inches. We first need to multiply these numbers with the scale:
17.8 x 80 = 1,424
21.2 x 80 = 1,696
Now that we got the real measures we need to multiply these two values in order to get to a result as in how many square inches is the room:
1,424 x 1696 = 2,425,104
Now we need to convert the square inches into square feet to get to the final result:
1 ft² = 144 in²
2,425,104 / 144 = 16,771.56
So we have a result of 16,771.56 square feet.
