Answer:

Q1- The correct answer is: Many species unique to the islands may become extinct. Those species won't have another place like Galápagos to develop themselves, ceasing to exist then.

Q2- The correct answer is: Their aim is to prevent extinctions. By preventing it, diversity is protected in different places.

Q3- The correct answer is: a gas that absorbs and re-releases heat radiated by the earth. Those gases are very harmful for our atmosphere when in excessively high amounts, because they increase the greenhouse effect.

Q4- The correct answer is: acid rain. Sulfur can mix with water particles on air and be condensed into rain, lowering water's pH and making it acid.

Q5- The correct answer is: stratospheric ozone. It protects us from sun radiation and also transfers heat for us.

Q6- The correct answer is: greenhouse gases. Those absorb and re-release the heat in our planet, increasing global warming effects.

Q7- The correct answer is: enacting air pollution laws. The smog caused by it harmed thousands of people, and this aspect wasn't controled until then.

Q8- The correct answer is: water vapor. It dissipates heat, and doesn't absorb and re-release it.

Q9- The correct answer is: landfill. The other means of disposal aren't as common as landfill.

Q10- The correct answer is: catalytic converter. It transforms the gaseous emissions into other products by chemical reactions.

Which type of motion most accurately describes the behavior of a friction -less pendulum?
kaheart [24]

Answer:

B) Periodic Motion

Explanation:

When a pendulum is friction-less, i.e there are no damping forces acting on it, its motion will be periodic, i.e it will bob up and down going from potential energy to kinetic energy and back. Thus, the motion of the pendulum can be best described by the term "period motion", hence choice B.

If however, forces do act on the pendulum, and if they acts as to damp the pendulum, it will oscillate less and less as time goes by, and eventually come to a stop (in the real world this damping force is usually air resistance ). And if the force acts in such a way that it increases the oscillations, the pendulum will swing higher and higher, and the system will go haywire! :)

Which statements describe properties of stars check all that apply
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Stars produce energy through nuclear fusion.

Stars are massive objects composed of gas.

Stars are composed primarily of hydrogen and helium.

Explanation:

Stars are massive objects that have a large gravitational field, which drives the star to contract on itself, which is why fusion occurs: in the center of the star the nuclei of atoms are already so close due to gravity and high temperatures that bind. This is what is called nuclear fusion and is the energy source of a star.

On the other hand yes, the main elements of a star are hydrogen and helium (two hydrogen nuclei fuse to make helium), this makes the star mainly a huge ball of gas so there is no solid surface where you can stand on.

And about water on a star, that is not possible. Temperatures on stars are very very high that water could not exist in a liquid form on them.
