The Crust and Lithosphere (which are almost synonymous) are not typically divided into two distinctive layers, so we can reject them.

The correct answer is is the core: (b). The inner core is solid and it's made of iron and nickel. The outer layer is liquid and this is the reason for the differentiation of the two parts.

how many calories of heat energy are required to raise the temperature of 6 grams of water from 10 degrees celcius to 15 degrees
evablogger [386]
Quantity of heat, Q = mc(t2 – t1), hence: 
273 × 103 J = 10 kg × c × (85 – 15)°C 
where c is the specific heat capacity, 
i.e. 273000 = 10 × c × 70 
from which, specific heat capacity, c = 
273000/10 × 70 
= 390 J/(kg °C

How were you going to solve the problems brought by climate change in South Africa<br>​
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Climate change is a global phenomenon. The intensity of the impacts will vary across the globe. For example, in the low lying islands, sea level rise will be the obvious impact, cause the water wells/bores to become salty. This will also pose threat for crops and plants to grow. For larger islands and continents(as is for South Africa), increasing temperature will lead to prolonged dry season and drought. Also frequency of rainy season leading to flooding. In similar context, will also affect food production.

Back to the question, how were you going to solve the problem? This is a tough question that have challenged scientists, academics, policy makers and the ordinary citizens like us for decades now. There are two words commonly used when dealing with impacts of climate change, Adaptation and mitigation.

For adaptation, one have to look on tangible solutions to response to the impacts. Example for salt water killing crops, plant crops that can withstand brackish water. This is only an example.

For mitigation, this is what our leaders have been discussing during the COP conferences. To reduce the amount of greenhouse as including CO2 pumped into the atmosphere by industries.

So the question, both adaptation and mitigation measure will have to be adopted. But you cannot solve the problem, only adapted to the changes.
