TRUE. A true-breeding organism, sometimes also called a purebred, is an organism that always passes down certain phenotypic traits to its offspring.
D
Explanation:
Flowing water has intrinsic kinetic energy that is harnessed to rotate the turbine. The turbine rotates hence gains mechanical energy because it is doing work. This work is used to rotate a dynamo of a generator which generates electricity. The mechanical energy is thus converted into electric energy by the dynamo. The electric energy is then carried by the power lines to the users.
Answer:
The correct answers are B and C. The tsunami waves were as high as 500 feet, and it was triggered by a 9.1 magnitude earthquake.
Explanation:
The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami was a series of tsunamis that swept the shores of most countries along the Indian Ocean on December 26, 2004, killing almost 280,000 people. This is considered one of the biggest natural disasters in history. The tsunami was caused by a huge 9.1 magnitude earthquake that shook the underwater off the west coast of Sumatra. This was the third largest earthquake measured by a seismometer. The ensuing tsunamis reached a height of 30 meters in some places when they made landfall. It has been confirmed that 131,028 people have died in Indonesia. More than 30,000 died in Sri Lanka and thousands died in India and Thailand. In Somalia, 4,500 km from the epicenter, 176 people were killed and about 50,000 people lost their homes. $ 14 billion in emergency aid was collected for the worst-affected countries.
