How are plastic bags and trash bags being used to produce renewable energy?

Biology
1 answer:
frez [133]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Plastic and trash bags can be used to generate renewable energy in the following way the mechanism of cold plasma pyrolysis.

Explanation:

  • Cold plasma pyrolysis is a method in which chemical compounds like plastic wastes and trash bags are subjected to high temperatures like 400 to 650 degree Celsius under limited oxygen condition.
  • The above process generates huge amount of energy in the form of heat that can be converted to usable electricity.
  • The process generates compounds like hydrogen, methane and ethylene.
  • The hydrogen and methane can be used as clean fuels because they produce minimum harmful components like carbon dioxide and soot on combustion.
  • The ethylene is the basic component of plastics and can be reused to produce more plastics.

Jenny is learning about the importance of the ozone layer. she was upset to know that there is a depletion of the ozone layer an
NeTakaya

The natural process by which the ozone layer get depleted are sun spots and atmospheric winds. The volcanic eruptions are also responsible for the depletion of the ozone layer.

The thinning of the ozone layer, which is present in the upper atmosphere is called ozone layer depletion. These natural processes causes and some chemicals compounds releases chlorine and bromine, which in exposure of high ultraviolet light causes the depletion of ozone.

The ozone layer found in the stratosphere of the earth atmosphere. This region protects the earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation of the sun. It has potential to absorb around 99% of the harmful ultraviolet radiation.

The main causes of ozone depletion are chloroflorocarbons, carbon tetrachloride, methylbromide. The natural processes does not cause more that 1 to 2 % of the ozone depletion.

2. How do the effects of insulin resistance compound to decrease cellular responses to insulin?
victus00 [196]

Answer and explanation;

-The insulin receptor itself has decreased kinase activity leading to fewer binding sites for singling effectors to become activated.

Therefore; the signaling effectors are less likely to be activated.

-Additionally,, feedback inhibition decreases signaling effector binding to receptor.

-The lack of activation of these initial signaling effectors prevents any subsequent steps from happening.

-We can thus conclude this by saying that higher insulin concentrations are necessary to obtain the same level of signaling leading to physiological effects that would exist in someone without type-2 diabetes.

-Also the requirement for higher insulin concentration means that the cells that respond to insulin are resistant to its effect.
