I believe the correct answer would be A. The extraction of oil shale is detrimental to the environment mainly because the process of extraction requires large amounts of land. Lands are being excavated in order to locate areas which contains the oil. This is not good since it affects ecosystems and destroy habitats.

Answer:

Water is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The whole process of extraction of oil from oil shales involves water in so many ways, from extraction to processing to selling the oil. Just in the United States, it is necessary to use from 4 to 8 billion of cubic meters everyday for oil refining, almost two times compared with what American household user in the same period of time. Due to this, b is the correct answer.

Dima020 [189]
The answer is metabolic heat.

<span>Organisms from the higher trophic levels consume organisms from the lower trophic level and during that process, energy is lost as metabolic heat. Primary producers (plants) contain the greatest amount of energy originally from the sunlight. The next trophic level belongs to primary consumers that consume primary producers. During consumption, energy is lost. Similarly, secondary consumers eat primary consumers and energy is lost again. The highest trophic level is tertiary consumers that contains the least amount of energy.</span>

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

t = 134834.31 years

Explanation:

First we find the speed of the ship:

v = 0.890 c

where,

v = speed of the ship = ?

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Therefore, using the values, we get:

v = (0.89)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)

v = 2.67 x 10⁸ m/s

Now, we find the distance in meters:

Distance = s = (1.2 x 10⁵ light years)(9.461 x 10¹⁵/1 light year)

s = 11.35 x 10²⁰ m

Now, for the time we use the following equation:

s = vt

t = s/v

t = (11.35 x 10²⁰ m)/(2.67 x 10⁸ m/s)

t = (4.25 x 10¹² s)(1 h/3600 s)(1 day/24 h)(1 year/365 days)

<u>t = 134834.31 years</u>
