Answer:

The correct answer is option A (Dead plants and animals).

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are hydrocarbon-containing materials like natural gas, fuel oil, coal which act as a source of energy. These fossil fuels are formed from the remains of dead animals and plants of Carboniferous Period about 360 to 286 million years ago.

At that time the remains of plants and animals along with micro-organisms were decayed which were later covered by sand and silt and trapped it under the rocks. Over time heat and pressure compressed it and changed it into coal, oil and some trapped pockets of gases known as natural gas.

Thus, option A (Dead plants and animals) is the correct answer.

"Discuss three factors that affect your daily food choices. For each factor with a negative outcome, suggest at least one change
professor190 [17]

Answer:

Three factors that affect my daily food choices include:

1. Taste

2. Length of time for preparation

3. Method of preparation.

Explanation:

When making choices for food, I tend to take several factors into consideration. Some of these factors include;

1. The taste of the food: If the food tastes good and is not too spicy I am more inclined to choose such food.

2. Length of time for preparation: Especially on stressful days, I tend to consider the length of time required to prepare a healthy meal. If it takes so much time I am more inclined to eat fast food which is not a good choice.

  • To change this negative outcome, I hope to plan my affairs for the day and prepare healthy meals beforehand, which could be stored in the refrigerator and reheated when I need it.

3. Method of Preparation: Some foods require paying attention to details. For example, food that uses up, a lot of vegetables would require thorough washing to prevent particles in the food. Busy days also get me exhausted with no strength to pay attention to these protocols.

  • To turn this around, I hope to employ the help of a family member to make the process easier.
  • I also hope to process most of my ingredients and keep them ready for use so that I would not have to do a lot of processing while cooking.

o-na [289]

Answer:

Everybody knows that some organs in the human body are necessary for survival: you need your brain, your heart, your lungs, your kidneys...

Why don’t eclipses occur during any other moon phases besides the new and full moon?
Bad White [126]

Answer:

There's no eclipse at every full moon and new moon because the moon's orbit is inclined to Earth's orbit by about five degrees. Most of the time, the sun, Earth and moon don't line up precisely enough to cause an eclipse.

Explanation:

During a lunar eclipse, Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, blocking the sunlight falling on the Moon. Earth's shadow covers all or part of the lunar surface.
