Answer: 1. recollapsing universe

4. critical universe

3. coasting universe

2. accelerating universe

Explanation:

The universe is continually growing and galaxies are moving apart relative to one another.   These four models foresee the expansion and possible contraction of the universe.

Recollapsing universe: this model predicts that galaxies will stop growing apart and start getting closer to one another. It predicts that there is enough density to stop the growth of the universe in the future.

Critical universe: the universe has the same density as the critical density. This is the difference between the density the universe requires to stop and that of a universe with too little density to ever stop expanding .

Coasting universe: has enough density to enable galaxies to keep growing apart , in essence, less than the critical density.

Accelerating universe: this model explains that the distance of far-off galaxies is growing exponentially from an observer over time.

How do we know there is Dark Matter in other galaxies? a. it occasionally lum inesces b. flat rotation curves in spiral galaxies
lesantik [10]

Answer:

b. flat rotation curves in spiral galaxies

Explanation:

Dark matter accounts for majority of the matter in the universe (about 85%). It is considered to be composed of subatomic particles which are yet to be discovered. Dark matter cannot be observed because it does not emit light that can be detected. Only its gravitational effect is visible.

Astronomers when calculated the mass of the visible matter and tried to account for the observed speed of stars in the galaxy, there was a mismatch. To understand what caused this mismatch, astronomers gave name to the invisible matter as the Dark Matter.  

The expected velocity of stars should decrease away from the near the center of the galaxy but a constant velocity of stars was observed that is a relatively flat rotation curve was obtained.  

Thus, flat rotation curves in spiral galaxies in an evidence of Dark Matter.

A major consequence of ozone depletion is what?
labwork [276]
The ozone layer protects us from the harmful emission of rays directly to the environment. Absent this added layer of protection we humans will be susceptible to various forms of cancer due to over radiation and eye problems such as cataracts. It is estimated that 10% of the world's population will face the consequences of ozone depletion this year and these numbers were continue to rise as time progresses.
