On the earth surface

Explanation:

The long-wavelength radiation is created on the earth surface when electromagnetic radiation is re-emitted.

The sun releases radiation in form of short-wave.
They are usually more energetic and with short wavelength and a high frequency.
When they interact with materials on the earth, they are radiated back as long-wavelength radiation that usually causes heat.
Ultraviolet rays and other high energy waves are emitted from the sun because it is a very hot body.
When these radiations enters the earth, they are re-radiated back as long waves with lower energy.
Earth is cooler than the sun
When some of the short waves for example, the ultraviolet rays gets to the surface, it is absorbed and re-radiated back.
When the short waves are absorbed, they lose some of their their energy to the earth surface.
The remainder is radiated back as less energetic long waves.
The hotter a body is, the more energetic the radiation it releases.

What are some disadvantages of fossil fuels?

Fed [463]

Answer:

B. Fossil fuels are nonrenewable and may cause pollution.

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are nonrenewable, meaning that they cannot be replenished sustainably. So, eventually, we will run out of them because they cannot be renewed.

Another disadvantage of fossil fuels is that they cause pollution. For example, the gasoline that is used by cars creates significant amounts of pollution every year.

Pollution is created by cars, factories, homes, and everything else that uses fossil fuels.

So, the correct answer is B, fossil fuels are nonrenewable and may cause pollution

A recessive trait inheritance could be more prevalent in a population than the dominant because mutation could occur because the mating does not have a wide variation causing a lethal gene or an autosomal sex link to be easily passed on the offspring
