Answer:

B.

Explanation:

Geothermal energy is only produced in the western (generally) part of the US. The Southeast and New England areas barely use geothermal energy. It all depends on how much potential a certain area has for certain forms of conducting electricity.

Consider this microscopic image of bacteria. mc005-1.jpg Which bacterial shape is shown in the image?
e-lub [12.9K]

The right answer is spiral.

Size and shape vary from one bacterium to another. The majority of bacteria have a size between 0.5-5 μm in diameter.

Most bacteria are either spherical or rod-shaped. In the first case they are called cocci (of the Greek kókkos, grain) and in the second bacilli (of Latin baculus, rod). There are also intermediate forms: coccobacilli. Some rod-shaped bacteria are slightly curved like vibrio. Other bacteria are helicoidal. They are spiral if the form is invariable and rigid, spirochaetes if the body is flexible and can change shape.

4. How does energy release from the sun reach Earth? How does the sun's energy interact with Earth's atmosphere and hydrosphere?
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

The heat source for our planet is the sun. Energy from the sun is transferred through space and through the earth's atmosphere to the earth's surface. Since this energy warms the earth's surface and atmosphere, some of it is or becomes heat energy. There are three ways heat is transferred into and through the atmosphere:

   <u>radiation: </u>Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through space by electromagnetic radiation. If you have stood in front of a fireplace or near a campfire, you have felt the heat transfer known as radiation.

   <u>conduction:</u> Conduction is the transfer of heat energy from one substance to another or within a substance. Have you ever left a metal spoon in a pot of soup being heated on a stove? After a short time, the handle of the spoon will become hot.

   <u>convection: </u>convection is the transfer of heat energy in a fluid. This type of heating is most commonly seen in the kitchen with a boiling liquid.
