Answer:

C

Explanation:

Albedo is a measure of ‘whiteness’  or reflectivity which is also the rate at which a surface is able to reflect a percentage of solar radiation it receives. White surfaces have a higher albedo which is why Arctic and Antarctic regions with lots of ice sheets have a high albedo. They play a big role in regulating global temperatures. The larger the ice sheet cover in the antarctic and arctic regions, the more they reflect solar radiation back to space hence keeping the temperatures on earth from rising considerably.

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Golgi apparatus

Explanation:

Based on what Tristan is doing, he is most like the Golgi apparatus. This is an organelle that is found in almost all eukaryotic cells, and whose main responsibility is packaging proteins into membrane-bound vesicles inside the cell which are later rerouted by the vesicles to their final destination. Which is almost exactly what Tristan is doing as he is preparing the gifts (proteins) and takes them to the post office (vesicles), which they will then take to the packages' final destination.

motikmotik

Duckweeds will block the sunlight entering the water and thereby decrease the population of submerged plants.

Option B

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Duckweeds are a deadly weed that grows on the surface of water bodies like lakes and ponds. The population of these plants increase to a huge extent because of the fertilizers that drain into these water bodies from the nearby agricultural fields.This is called eutrophication.

Now these plants form a layer covering the surface of the water bodies. This leads to blocking the sunlight from entering inside the water. This leads to sunlight deficiency inside the water body. Thus the plants that are growing on the bottom of these water bodies cannot get sunlight and thus dies.
