Does social distancing increase or decrease your carbon footprint?

Biology
1 answer:
Andrej [43]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Decrease

Explanation:

The carbon footprint is <u>the amount of carbon (in terms of greenhouse gases) being emitted by human activities</u>. In a situation where <u>social distancing is encouraged, human activity would reduce significantly</u>. Very few people will be outside and the causative agents of pollution (anthropogenic) will be significantly reduced. Further, nature would be able to minimize the impacts of pollution when human activities are less than the threshold capacity.

Let's take an example of coronavirus spread globally this year. The social distancing of 2 meters has significantly reduced the number of people going outside. Ultimately, there are fewer automobiles on the roads and a few industries are running. The result is that the air quality index has been significantly improved. For example, in India, people from 300 km away, can see the Himalayan mountain range very clearly (see image attached). This has not happened in decades after modern industrialization.

sineoko [7]

The description of soil according to Jonathan is as follows:

  • Mostly large grains, with a gritty texture, 45% sand, 5% clay, and 45% silt ---- Silty loam soil.
  • Mostly large grains, with a sticky texture, 55% sand, 40% clay, and 5% silt ----- Sandy clay soil.
  • Mostly small grains, with a sticky texture, 30% sand, 50% clay, and 20% silt ----- Clay soil.
  • Mostly small grains, with a smooth texture, 30% sand, 5% clay, and 65% silt ----- Silty loam soil.

<h3>What is Soil Texture?</h3>

Soil texture may be defined as a classification of soil on the basis of its physical appearance, texture, and properties.

In this question, the texture and composition of other soil are illustrated briefly with respect to each common soil type.

Therefore, it is well described above.

Explain how genes are expressed for a particular reason
ozzi

Each cell expresses, or turns on, only a fraction of its genes. The rest of the genes are repressed, or turned off.

The turned on genes are then first transcribed into messenger RNA by the process of Transcription.

Then the mRNA is Translated into protein by the process called Translation.

This is how the specific genes are expressed.

How does making models help scientists observe ...????<br>HELP
olga nikolaevna [1]
Building models doesn't actually help scientists observe phenomena. Scientists build models to describe how nature and systems operate then make observations to see if their models match what they observe. Models which don't match what they observe are either alterated or scrapped. Good models are kept and used by the scientific community.
