Answer:
B
Explanation:
The windward position on a mountain is the side that is bombarded with prevailing winds. These winds are forced upwards into the upper cooler atmosphere by the physical barrier of the mountain. The moisture in the winds condenses forming clouds that precipitate as rain. As the winds descend on the other side of the mountain (leeward side), they have little moisture left. Therefore, the windward side will be rich in vegetation and biodiversity due to higher annual rainfall than the leeward side.
Answer:
Biofuels are renewable fuels that are produced from biomass, organisms that were formed and stopped living a short time ago. The energy in the biofuels is called bioenergy. The major constituents of biomass are cellulose, lignin, starch and sugar, but many plants also contain other organic compounds that are beneficial for energy recovery from the material due to their physical structure and chemical composition. The difference between biofuels and fossil fuels is that fossil fuels take millions of years for new formation while new biomass for biofuels is constantly being formed. This means that biofuels can usually be considered carbon neutral as the carbon dioxide emitted during combustion is constantly bound to new biomass in a closed cycle.
The system of scientific naming or nomenclature is use to identify an organisms worldwide. The system of naming of an organism is introduced by Carolus Linnaeus. The scientific name of any organism is written by its genus name and species name. This is called binomial system of naming. While writing the scientific name of an organism, the name of the genus written first with a capital letter and the name of the species is written second with a small letter. When typed scientific name is in italics and when it is hand written the genus name and the species are to be underlined separately.
In the given example, the scientific name of orange-barred sulfur butterfly is <em>Phoebis philea</em>. <em>Phoebis</em> is its genus name and <em>philea</em> is the species name.
