Oceans produce approximately 80 percent of the oxygen our planet needs to support animal life. Pollution that reaches the ocean

through dumping, oil leaks, runoff, and other processes interferes with that oxygen production and poses a real threat to the oxygen content in our atmosphere. If the oxygen content decreases, it is likely that carbon dioxide will increase. This could have dramatic consequences for life as we know it.
Which does this passage indicate causes a decrease of oxygen in the atmosphere?

Answer:

Pollution of the oceans

Explanation:

The oceans are the largest storage and producer of oxygen on the planet. They have by far the most producers, which use the carbon dioxide and release the oxygen as a waste product. That oxygen ends up into the ocean waters, and from the ocean waters into the atmosphere. The humans though are breaking up this natural cycle with the enormous pollution they cause in the oceans. Fossil fuels, plastics, electronics, very often end up in the oceans, harming the living organisms, including the producers, resulting in their decline, thus decline in the levels of oxygen produced and released into the atmosphere.

The heat of the one and the cold of the others preclude or precludes any possibility of life
Nata [24]

Answer:

Definition of preclude: to make impossible by necessary consequence : rule out in advance.

Explanation:

Preclude is often used in legal writing, where it usually refers to making something legally impossible. A new law may be passed by Congress to preclude any suits of a certain kind against a federal agency, for example. Some judges have found that the warnings on cigarette packs preclude any suits against the tobacco companies by lung-cancer sufferers. But there are plenty of nonlegal uses as well. Bad weather often precludes trips to the beach, and a lack of cash might preclude any beach vacation at all.

When romeo says, "he jests at scars that never felt a wound," what does he mean?.
allochka39001 [22]
When Romeo says “he jests at scars that never felt a wound” he’s basically saying that it’s easy to make fun of or joke about others scars or hurts, especially if you have never experienced that type of hurt. Basically, he uses it to describe the apathy of Mercutio when he overhears him joking about Romeo’s short-lived love and devotion to Rosaline.
