They are thus known as the "supporting cells" of the nervous system. The four main functions of glial cells are: to surround neurons and hold them in place, to supply nutrients and oxygen to neurons, to insulate one neuron from another, and to destroy and remove the carcasses of dead neurons (clean up).
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
"Scientists are testing the effect of different scrubber technologies on the removal of pollutants from coal power plants. The scrubbers use a slurry of limestone and water. Which of the following best describes the impact of modifying the slurry by increasing the amount of limestone? The amount of sulfur dioxide released will decrease. A The amount of ground-level ozone released will decrease. B The amount of water released will increase. C The amount of carbon monoxide released will increase.
"
Answer:
The amount of sulfur dioxide released will decrease.
Explanation:
As you may already know, coal is a fossil fuel and burning it releases many toxic gases into the atmosphere, including sulfur dioxide.
A suspension of water and limestone, allows the calcium present in limestone to enter into reaction with sulfur dioxide, forming calcium sulfide and decreasing the emission of sulfur in the atmosphere.
The greater the amount of limestone in this suspension, the less sulfur dioxide will be released into the environment.
Archaebacteria move by using the form of a flagellum to propel a themselves.
hope that helps
<h2>Answer is option "b"</h2>
Explanation:
- Non-ionizing radiation is radiation that has a lower frequency, or longer wavelength, in the EMR spectrum. These frequencies range from that of power lines, radios, and cell phones, up to visible light. Non-ionizing radiation is not powerful enough to break the chemical bonds in molecules. In general, it is not harmful to human health as radiation per se, but could be harmful in terms of the transfer of heat energy. An example of an emitter of non-ionizing radiation is a microwave oven.
- Non-ionizing radiation is less harmful because the rays carry much less energy. Radio waves, light, and even heat are examples of non-ionizing radiation. For the most part, these kinds of radiation do not cause any damage. However, ultraviolet light is a kind of non-ionizing radiation that can be harmful - it can cause mutations in DNA
- Non-ionizing radiation is limited to the lower energy range electromagnetic radiation, which is more commonly known as light. However, the light we can see with our eyes, visible light, is only a small section of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum as seen here
- Hence the right answer is option "b"
