Humans deplete the most resources when
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Resource depletion is the consumption of a resource faster than it can be replenished. Natural resources are commonly divided between renewable resources and non-renewable resources (see also mineral resource classification). Use of either of these forms of resources beyond their rate of replacement is considered to be resource depletion. The value of a resource is a direct result of its availability in nature and the cost of extracting the resource, the more a resource is depleted the more the value of the resource increases. There are several types of resource depletion, the most known being: Aquifer depletion, deforestation, mining for fossil fuels and minerals, pollution or contamination of resources, slash-and-burn agricultural practices, Soil erosion, and overconsumption, excessive or unnecessary use of resources.

Resource depletion is most commonly used in reference to farming, fishing, mining, water usage, and consumption of fossil fuels. Depletion of wildlife populations is called defaunation.

Juanita sticks a nail to the end of a bar magnet. She then sticks a second nail to the first, then another to that one, and so o
Andreas93 [3]

Answer – The force of gravity is stronger than the force of magnetism.

 

The attractive force of magnetism is the force that keeps the nails joined to one another and to the end of a bar magnet while the force of gravity is the force acting to pull the nails to the ground. If when Juanita sticks the seventh nail, it falls off the sixth nail, it means that the force of gravity acting on the seventh nail is stronger than the force of magnetism acting on it.

balu736 [363]
<span>Prokaryotes have magnetite-containing structures, nucleoid (their version of a nucleus), fimbriae. Animals have lysosomes. Plant cells have chloroplasts (make the plant cells green, produce energy for plants), photosynthetic membranes (produce energy for plants), cell well. Flagella can be found in prokaryotes and animal cells but for a simpler biology class, I would put it with prokaryotes.</span>

What does the term electron orbital describe?An electron orbital describes the orbit of an electron around the nucleus.An electr
AlekseyPX

The correct answer is B. An electron orbital describes a three-dimensional space where an electron can be found 90% of the time.

Explanation:

Electrons are negatively charged particles found in atoms. These different from protons and neutrons are not located in the nucleus of the atom but orbit it. Additionally, electrons do not orbit the nucleus following a linear pattern but they have a wave-like behavior which means they move in a three-dimensional space or area known as electron orbital in which they can be found most of the time, this space of area is determined depending on energy, momentum, and other factors. Thus, an electron orbital is "a three-dimensional space where an electron can be found 90% of the time".
