Answer:
C
Explanation:
The gravity of the sun and moon pull on the water of the oceans of the earth hence causing a bulge of these waters at the point on earth where the moon is above. The region where the moon is above, and the opposite side on the earth, will therefore experience high tides while the places at right angles (on the surface of the earth in relation to the moon position) will experience low tides.
In the world's oceans 90% of the biomass is microbial with viruses turning over 20% of that daily. without the turnover of biomass driven by viruses many sources of food would not be present for other organisms
Answer: See below
Explanation:
Solar energy: Advantages: Solar energy is pollution free and causes no greenhouse gases to be emitted after installation. Disadvantages: Although solar energy can still be collected during cloudy and rainy days, the efficiency of the solar system drops.
Wind energy: Advantages: It doesn't pollute air like power plant relying on combustion of fossil fuel. Disadvantages: Wind turbines can be a threat to wildlife (e.g. birds, bats).
Hydroelectric energy: Advantages: Hydroelectric energy is fueled by water, so it's a clean fuel source, meaning it won't pollute the air like power plants that burn fossil fuels, such as coal or natural gas. Disadvantages: Electricity generation and energy prices are directly related to how much water is available. A drought could potentially affect this.
