Solvent contains chlorofluorocarbons or hydrochlorofluorocarbons which can evaporate and damage the ozone layer. True or false

Geography

Drupady [299]3 years ago

The statement is - True.

The solvent do contains chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC) which evaporate and enter the atmosphere. Because they are very light, the CFC and HCFC manage to get very high into the atmosphere, reaching the ozone layer in the stratosphere. They are actually the two substances that are the most damaging to ozone layer, as once they get in touch with it, they break down its structure, thus creating the ozone holes.

The ozone is crucial for the survival of the living organisms on the Earth as it is the layer that manages to stop most of the ultraviolet rays form the Sun to reach the surface. Because of that, these two substances have to be replaced quickly as the ozone layer is becoming more and more damaged, and that can eventually lead to a tragedy.

What economic issues should be considered during conservation?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Hybridization may drive rare taxa to extinction through genetic swamping, where the rare form is replaced by hybrids, or by demographic swamping, where population growth rates are reduced due to the wasteful production of maladaptive hybrids. Conversely, hybridization may rescue the viability of small, inbred populations. Understanding the factors that contribute to destructive versus constructive outcomes of hybridization is key to managing conservation concerns. Here, we survey the literature for studies of hybridization and extinction to identify the ecological, evolutionary, and genetic factors that critically affect extinction risk through hybridization. We find that while extinction risk is highly situation dependent, genetic swamping is much more frequent than demographic swamping. In addition, human involvement is associated with increased risk and high reproductive isolation with reduced risk. Although climate change is predicted to increase the risk of hybridization‐induced extinction, we find little empirical support for this prediction. Similarly, theoretical and experimental studies imply that genetic rescue through hybridization may be equally or more probable than demographic swamping, but our literature survey failed to support this claim. We conclude that halting the introduction of hybridization‐prone exotics and restoring mature and diverse habitats that are resistant to hybrid establishment should be management priorities.

What does the distance covered by a degree of longitude depend on?
soldier1979 [14.2K]
It depends on the latitude where you measure it.

It's about 69 miles on the equator, and it shrinks to zero at the poles.

In general, at any latitude,

Distance covered by 1 degree of longitude =

                    <em> (69 miles)  x  [ cosine(latitude where it's measured) ]</em>
