Most nuclear power plants are located along lakes, rivers or seacoasts because the facilities use water to cool the reactors. Cooling water discharged from a plant can affect the ambient habitat conditions for aquatic species

<u>Answer:</u>

Nuclear power plants impact the water resources by making them inhabitable for the survival of aquatic species.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • Nuclear power plants need huge amounts of water in order to cool the reactors down.
  • This water is fetched from nearby resources of freshwater resulting in an imbalance in the availability of water in the resources.
  • Secondly, the water that is cooled down and used to keep the reactors cold is released back in the same resources of water.
  • This addition of excessively cold water makes it hard for the aquatic species to sustain the drastic change in the temperature of the water.

How do I find the area of these?
crimeas [40]

Answer:

For b. 11*3x = 33x

For c. (3x-4)(11x-2) = 33x^{2} -50x+8

Explanation:

For b. Since it is a rectangular the A = l*w

w = 11 & l = 3x => A = 11*3x = 33x

For c. Since it is a square we could assume that the A =s^{2} a side squared  (since they all have the same length) but to be on the safe side, we'll assume it is not a square and do the math of multiplying one side by another (just like for a rectangle)

Side up = 3x + (-4) = 3x-4

Side left = 11x + (-2) = 11x-2

Side up * Side left = (3x-4)(11x-2) = 33x^{2} -50x+8

This is the name for a category of trade barriers that a country may impose on another country or countries.
Flauer [41]
These are all matching questions
1. Sanction. Countries may place restrictions between each other if they can not come to an agreement that benefits both.
2. Embargo. Example- The U.S. and Cuba have had an embargo. Neither country will trade with the other.
3. Quota. This allows only a certain amount of a product to come into a place. This may be a good thing if a substance is illegal or if the substance or product could somehow be used for the wrong reasons.
4. Subsidy. Sometimes the government will help farmer's by giving them money to plant certain crops. This helps both  the economy and the farmer.
5. (Protective)Tariff
6. Boycott. People could boycott a store, if they do not agree with company's beliefs. An example would be Target allowing Transgenders into women's restrooms.

List and describe the evidence used to support the plate tectonics theory.
umka2103 [35]
The basic theory of plate tectonics is that along seafloor spreading zones, the continents are separating from one another. As they spread apart, magma comes to the surface and becomes new continental crust. As the tectonic plates move away from spreading zones, they collide with one another.
