Explain what nuclear, or atomic, process most likely results in geothermal energy. Also state why this nuclear energy will last

longer than the supply of fossil fuels
Biology
1 answer:
ELEN [110]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Nuclear energy does not produce electricity on its own. The nuclear energy it produces is used to heat water . The hot water then turns to steam that is used to turn dynamo turbines. This is thermal energy turned to mechanical energy.  The dynamo turbines turn the mechanical energy into electric energy.

Nuclear energy lasts longer because the same volume as compared to fossil fuels produced a larger magnitude of energy, million of magnitudes larger. Therefore with the controlled release of this enormous energy, nuclear energy can last much longer than fossil fuels.

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. Fossil fuels are cheaper than alternative forms of energy

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are made from organic matter of dead animals and mainly plants  who were buried in the soil over hundred and thousand of years. We use fossil fuels because they are the best source to provide energy in the current time.

Fossil fuels are easily available and are present in very large amount which is the main reason for it to be cheaper. Fossil fuels like coal, petroleum or natural gas are more cheaper and efficient than alternative forms of energy like solar or wind energy.

But in future these fossil fuel will not be there and alternative forms of energy will become the primary and cheaper source of fuel.

Symptoms of uric acid.​
irina [24]

Answer:

Elevated uric acid levels lead to a condition known as "Hyperuricemia."

Explanation:

This condition occurs when there is an excessive presence of uric acid in the blood. It can be divided into:

  • Primary hyperuricemia
  • Secondary hyperuricemia

Primary hyperuricemia occurs when the kidneys are not able to eliminate uric acid in an efficient/proper way. This can be due to the consumption of foos that are very high in purines. For example, liver, gravy, alcoholic beverages, and some vegetables such as spinach and asparagus.

Secondary hyperuricemia may occur to several possible reasons. For instance, kidney disease, in which the kidney is not able to eliminate uric acid; chemotherapy, which may lead to the accumulation of uric acids; or medications that increase the level of uric acid in the blood.

Symptoms include:

  • Fever.
  • Extreme and abnormal fatigue.
  • Joint inflammation.
  • Urination problems.
  • Kidney stones.

To prevent this disease and as part of a treatment (along with medications prescribed by a doctor), a patient should opt to consume foods that are low in purine, such as lettuce, tomatoes, cereals, fruits, milk, eggs, amongst others.
