What is the greenhouse effect

Biology
2 answers:
fiasKO [112]3 years ago

The greenhouse effect is a naturally occurring process that aids in heating the Earth's surface and atmosphere. It results from the fact that certain atmospheric gases, such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, and methane, are able to change the energy balance of the planet by absorbing longwave radiation emitted from the Earth's surface. Without the greenhouse effect life on this planet would probably not exist as the average temperature of the Earth would be a chilly -18° Celsius, rather than the present 15° Celsius.

Answer:

The greenhouse effect is a natural process that occurs due to the accumulation of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, ozone, methane in the earth's surface.

Explanation:

The greenhouse effect is a phenomenon that occurs when the greenhouse gases(carbon dioxide, methane) in the Earth's surface trap heat from the sun and this process makes the Earth's surface warmer.

The greenhouse effect is caused due to burning of fossil fuels and cutting of trees or forests, which increase the concentration of methane, carbon dioxide(greenhouse gases).

How and why might the R0 value change over time during an outbreak? pls help
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Vaccinations

Explanation:

For example, if a disease has an R0 of 18, a person who has the disease will transmit it to an average of 18 other people. That replication will continue if no one has been vaccinated against the disease or is already immune to it in their community. So if you have (for example) a vaccination then you're less likely to get it, resulting in a lower R0

Iven the equation representing a nuclear reaction in which x represents a nuclide: which nuclide is represented by x?
kaheart [24]

The nuclide represented as X is thorium and this is an alpha decay where an alpha particle is removed off.

<h3>What is nuclide?</h3>

A kind of atom or nucleus which is represented by a specific number of protons and neutrons.

The equation given represents an alpha decay. In an alpha decay, an alpha particle is removed off.

The atomic number of the parent nuclide is more than the daughter nuclide by two units and the mass number of the parent is more than that of the daughter nuclide by four units.

Thus, the x is thorium.

Your science teacher has asked the class to make a cell city model. Which building or business in the city could represent the m
Marrrta [24]
The correct answer is <span>D) power company - produces energy. 

The Mitochondria produce the energy used by the other parts of the cell - called the ATP - in a process called the Krebs cycle. The Krebs cycle produces ATP - like the energy that a power plant produces and a secondary product is </span>CO_{23}, just like typical power plants also produce CO_{23} while producing energy. Both in mitochondria and in power plants, the more energy is produced, the more CO_{23}!
