Which statement about internal combustion engines best shows how science has been impacted by society? internal combustion engin
es provided a high power-to-weight ratio. internal combustion engine manufacture has increased because of consumer demand for personal vehicles. internal combustion engines contribute to air pollution, which can cause health problems. internal combustion engines can lead to noise pollution.
The correct answer of the given question above would be the second option. The statement about the internal combustion engine that best shows how science has been impacted by society is that, internal combustion engine manufacture has increased because of consumer demand for personal vehicles.
internal combustion engine manufacture has increased because of consumer demand for personal vehicles
<u>This is why:</u>
Science is greatly impacted by the needs and the wants of society. A high demand on a specific service or product would influence science to meet that demand. Although it is not specific, internal combustion engine manufacture increased because science has developed new ways and improvements to produce more personal vehicles to meet the demand.
There would be more evidence spread out through space to be noticed by scientists and it seems like a stretch to go as far back as 4 billion years ago.

Xerophytes are plants that have adapted to arid climates. They have evolutionary developed adaptations to reduce the rate of transpiration so as to conserve water.
Among the adaptations include; thick cuticle, small, thick leaves, reducing the surface area relative to the volume of the leaf, etc.
Additionally, they use CAM pathway as an alternative photosynthetic pathway to minimize water loss.
