Answer:

A. Both waves carry energy and refract

Explanation:

There are two major types of waves viz; mechanical waves and electromagnetic eaves. Mechanical waves such as sound waves are waves that require a medium or matter to pass/travel through while electromagnetic waves like light waves do not strictly require a medium to travel i.e through vacuum.

Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves i.e their particles move perpendicularly to the direction of the wave while mechanical waves can either be transverse or longitudinal. All waves carry energy from one medium to another and are capable of refraction i.e. change of direction.

Therefore, both mechanical and electromagnetic waves carry energy and refract.

Write an argumentative essay which says without photosynthesis there is no life

AysviL [449]

Explanation:

you could include the points such as,

--> photosynthesis produces O2 which is necessary for respiration.

-->photosynthesis reduces the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere as it uses it up in the reaction. this controls the atmospheric rate of CO2 and reduced the greenhouse effect.

--> plants are the primary producers in a food chain and so, photosynthesis plays a primary role in the stability of food chains as they're the primary source of glucose as all the higher consumption is based off the producer.

--> virtually seeing, all the energy within the biosphere is based off plants that depends on photosynthesis.

--> If photosynthesis ceased, there would soon be little food or other organic matter on Earth, most organisms would disappear, and Earth's atmosphere would eventually become nearly devoid of gaseous oxygen.

there could be more but this is all I could think of.

hope it helps. :)

What is meant my urbanization and industrialization? How they degrade the environment

Whitepunk [10]

Urbanization is defined as “the process of making an area more urban” or an increase in the amount of people living in towns or cities. Industrialization is defined as “the development of industries in a country or region on a wide scale” meaning a strong military with modern weapons, factories to create things, modern cars and boats etc. Urbanization and industrialization put a strain on the environment because of carbon gases emitted, effectively warming the earth up, destruction of trees which lowers our overall oxygen available, destruction of animal homes which will kill animals or cause unwanted interactions between humans and animals, and the pollution of natural resources such as local ponds, streams or the ocean.
