Answer:    B. Carbon dioxide

Explanation:  Global warming arises due to the emission of gases which are accumulated in the atmosphere, that is, the layer of these gases increases in an atmosphere, and prevents the reflected sun rays from the ground to leave the atmosphere. Such a higher amount of sunshine-heat which is higher than necessary, remains in the atmosphere and heats the surface of the earth, which is the effect of the greenhouse. These are gases produced by combustion of fossil fuels, and during this combustion they are emitted into the atmosphere. Gases that cause the greenhouse effect are carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. The problem is that fossil fuels are used to produce electricity, in agriculture and transport. Global warming has drastically increased over the past decades, and if preventive measures which involving the use of alternative fuels are not undertaken, the catastrophic consequences, which are already visible, will be even greater.

Explain what will happen to the organisms that is affected by human activities.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Human activity is by far the biggest cause of habitat loss.

Humans are now responsible for causing changes in the environment that hurt animals and plant species. We take up more space on Earth for our homes and cities. We pollute habitats. ... Human activity often changes or destroys the habitats that plants and animals need to survive.

Explanation:

Human activities are the various actions for recreation, living, or necessity done by people. For instance it includes leisure, entertainment, industry, recreation, war, and exercise.

Over time, destruction of such habitats leads to reduced biodiversity, weakening the Earth's ecosystems, and ultimately posing a major threat to human life. While, significant tracts of habitat have been lost, and along with them many species of plant and animal, steps can be taken to slow and even reverse the process.

One of the most significant ways in which humans have impacted on the lives of other species is by causing climate change. Many animals, including birds and frogs, now breed much earlier in spring in Britain than they did 20 years ago. Whether or not this is having a harmful effect on them has yet to be determined.

Which chemical equation represents a decomposition reaction?
MrMuchimi

Decomposition reaction D. 2H20⇒ 2H2 + O2

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Every chemical reaction involves a compound consisting of reactants and products  

Reactants are compounds that react and form new compounds called products

There are several forms of reactions that can occur, including single replacement, double replacement, synthesis, decomposition, etc.

A. 2C2H6 + 702 ⇒ 4CO2 + 6H20

Combustion : reaction of Hydrocarbon and Oxygen

B. AgNO3 + LiCl → AgCl + LINO3

Double replacement : there is an ion exchange between two ion compounds in the reactant to form two new ion compounds in the product

C. Ca + MgS → CaS + Mg

Single replacement :one element replaces the other elements of a compound to produce new elements and compounds

D. 2H20⇒ 2H2 + O2

Decomposition : One compound breaks down into 2 components
