The correct answer is (a) Solar Energy

The difference in temperature between the equator and pole of the earth results in formation of wind patterns. The difference in absorption of solar energy leads to buoyancy forces which results in rotation of earth. This rotation of earth causes the wind flow. Hence, the solar energy causes wind to flow which ultimately serves as a source of mechanical energy in wind.

What part of the body is not working as it should when you have asthma
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

The Lungs

Explanation:

Asthma is a lung disease that affects your airways. With asthma, the lining of your airways is constantly hypersensitive, resulting in redness and swelling (inflammation). It's similar to how sunburned skin turns red, irritated, and sensitive. The airways become hypersensitive to things you are exposed to on a daily basis, or asthma "triggers." a trigger could be a common cold, stress, changes in the weather, or environmental factors like dust, chemicals, smoke, or pet dander.

Airway remodeling can occur as a result of poor asthma management. When asthma is untreated or poorly managed, it can lead to airway remodeling, which is a serious condition. The lungs become scarred, asthma medications become less effective, and less air can pass through your airways. It is not necessary to remodel the airways.

Hope this helps and if it does, don't be afraid to give my answer a "Thanks" and maybe a Brainliest if it's correct?

kramer

Answer:

C6H6 - organic compound

K - element

Cl2 - inorganic elemental molecule

SO2 -  inorganic compound

Explanation:

An organic compound contains carbon and hydrogen bonded covalently . Sometimes other atoms aside from carbon and hydrogen called heteroatoms are also found in organic compounds. C6H6 is an organic compound.

Elements are found in periodic table. They always occur in uncombined state. K is an element.

Cl2 is an inorganic elemental molecule containing two chlorine atoms bonded covalently.

SO2 is an inorganic compound composed of sulphur and oxygen bound covalently. Mnay inorganic compounds do not contain carbon
