The answer is (D). Creating more fossil fuels.

Fossil fuels are formed by the compression of the dead matter of plants and animals within the crust of the Earth. The plants and animals that died due to some calamity millions of years ago got covered by the rocks and soil. The internal heat of the Earth and the pressure due to the weight of the rocks turned them into thick dark crude oil. This process is natural and time consuming. It is impossible to recreate this process by artificial means on a large scale to make more solid fuels.

Interestingly, mining of extra-terrestrial planets, moons and asteroids is an ongoing research and the means to do it are being prototypes in the research laboratories of NASA and other space organisations.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

There will be 2 molecules.

Explanation:

Each PCR cycle replicates one DNA molecule. This cycle lasts about 2 minutes where the Denaturation (where the DNA double helix is ​​separated) phases occur, Bonding (where prmiets begin to establish complementary hydrogen bonds to the nitrogenous bases of the two DNA strands) and Synthesis (Where DNA polymerase begins to create new strands of DNA). Prior to the first round of PCR there was a DNA sample. However, after one cycle this sample was replicated, so the PCR reaction will follow with 2 DNA samples.

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

This is placing a cell in hyper tonic solution.Therefore, the water potential of the cells is higher than the environment. Hence it lose water to the environment which has a  lower water potential, but higher solute potential.

Therefore the loss of fluid by the cell leads to shrinking of the cytosol and it containing organelles. Later the cells collapse.

<u>Spanish</u>

Esto es colocar las células en una solución hipertónica. Por lo tanto, el potencial hídrico de las células es mayor que el del medio ambiente. Por lo tanto, perder agua al medio ambiente reducirá el potencial hídrico, pero aumentará el potencial de soluto.

Por lo tanto, la pérdida de líquido por parte de la célula conduce a la contracción del citosol y que contiene orgánulos.

Describe how living things use anaerobic respiration to generate energy.
Mrac [35]
Anaerobic respiration is the process by which some organisms produce energy in the absence of oxygen. Instead of oxygen, organic and inorganic molecules are used as electron acceptors. One example of anaerobic respiration is fermentation.
In latic acid fermentation, one molecule of glucose undergoes glycolysis to produce two molecules of pyruvate. The two molecules of pyruvate then undergo fermentation to produce two molecules of lactate. The lactate will be transported to the liver. The lactate can be reconverted to pyruvate and utilized for energy. Latic acid fermentation occurs in the muscles.
