Answer:

There are several eco-friendly techniques such as solar power plants, hydroelectric power plants, geotheraml enegy and wind turbines et-cetra, which have positive and negative both the impacts on environment that includes cryosphere, biodiversity, and human populations.

Positive impacts:

  • Hydropower plant (energy generated from water) is clean energy source and do not cause any air pollution and is a domestic source of energy, so each state can produce their own energy.
  • Wind turbines (energy generated from wind) are also clean energy source, do not cause any pollution, a renewable source of energy and provide power to remote locations.
  • Geothermal enetgy (energy generated through earth's internal heat) is environmet friendly source and better then conventional fuel sources as it does not require fuel, have high potential and sustainable.

Negative impacts:

  • Hydroelectric power plants are built by construction of dams and roads at water sites which affect the water habitat and also the destroys the nearby home of people. it affects the water flows in river and causes drought.
  • installation of Wind turbines allows posses threat to birds because of their heights and produces lots of noise that disturb the human population nearby. It can affect the flow of wind which indirectly affect the climate or weather at cryosphere and allows melting of ice.
  • Geothermal energy can cause cause earthquakes, nois pollution and destroy the native biodiversity.Geotheraml energy utilises heat inside the earth surface that affects the internal plates of earth of earth which disturbes the whole earth surface including cryosphere.

Hence, eco-friendly technologies have pros and cons both as mentioned above.

why is it a good idea for a bacterial cell to be abel to use glucose first as an energy source then switch to lactose
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Due to less steps and requires less energy.

Explanation:

The bacterial cell is able to use glucose first as an energy source then switch to lactose because glucose requires less steps and less amount of energy for the break down as compared to lactose. If lactose is the only sugar available to the bacterial cells, then bacterial cells will use it as energy source for the production of energy. In order to use lactose, the bacteria must express the lac operon genes, which encode the main enzymes for lactose uptake and metabolism.

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

(d) Cell wall

Explanation:

The cell wall is a structure located on the outside of the cell membrane in the cells of plants, bacteria, fungi, and algae. It is a resistant, tough and flexible layer, which has the vital function of supporting the osmotic pressure inside the cell, preventing the cell from lysis when water enters. Besides, it has the function of giving rigidity, support and defining the shape of the cell.
