Answer:

A choosing to burn coal to generate electricity

Explanation:

Neither nuclear energy nor alternative sources such as wind and solar seem likely to meet the demand for electricity. ... Of all fossil fuels, coal puts out the most carbon dioxide per unit of energy, so burning it poses a further threat to global climate, already warming alarmingly.

Answer: strong roots

Explanation:

Plants situated in fast-flowing area of a stream (aquatic environment) require certain body features to help them adapt to the fast blowing tides or waves of water, these include:

- a long slender stem

- strong roots for attachment and to withstand being uprooted by fast blowing tides

- waxy leaves and stem with intracellular air spaces to maintain buoyancy and float above the water

kkurt [141]

Answer:

The correct matches are:

  1. In anabolic reactions that involve the synthesis of a large molecule from smaller precursor molecules, NADH and ATP are consumed when they provide the needed electrons or energy.
  2. In catabolic reactions that involve the breakdown of a molecule into smaller subunits, such as glucose to pyruvate, NADH and ATP are produced.
  3. In the reaction Pyruvate +NADH-Lactate +NAD, pyruvate is being reduced.
  4. In the reaction Pyruvate NADH-Lactate +NAD, NADH is being oxidized.

Explanation:

  • Being involved in synthesis, anabolic reactions require energy in the form of energy storing molecules such as NADH and ATP. Anabolic processes utilize energy produced by the catabolism of complex compounds.
  • Catabolic processes produce energy or energy storing compounds by breaking down complex substances into simpler ones. All steps of cellular respiration are catabolic processes since they generate energy in the form of ATP or energy yielding molecules such as NADH and FADH2.
  • Anaerobic respiration takes place during intense physical activity due to which adequate oxygen does not reach the cells. Insufficient oxygen shuttles the pyruvate molecules produced by glycolysis into the lactic acid pathway that reduces pyruvate into lactic acid.
  • Since, NADH is donating its H+, it is being oxidized to NAD+.

Answer:

Hotspots from under the ground

Explanation:

There are three different situations where an volcano can form. A divergent boundary, where two tectonic plates move away from each other, subduction boundary, where one of the tectonic plates moves under the other, and a hotspot. Scientists are not completely sure how hotspots form.
