The majority of wind turbines consist of three blades mounted to a tower made from tubular steel. There are less common varieties with two blades, or with concrete or steel lattice towers. At 100 feet or more above the ground, the tower allows the turbine to take advantage of faster wind speeds found at higher altitudes.
Turbines catch the wind's energy with their propeller-like blades, which act much like an airplane wing. When the wind blows, a pocket of low-pressure air forms on one side of the blade. The low-pressure air pocket then pulls the blade toward it, causing the rotor to turn. This is called lift. The force of the lift is much stronger than the wind's force against the front side of the blade, which is called drag. The combination of lift and drag causes the rotor to spin like a propeller. So therefore your answer would be A.

<h2>Question no 1:</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>
The correct answer is option A which is Sarah is correct because genetic diversity occurs over a long period of time.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
- Genetic diversity is a large number of allelic combinations for a trait in specie in a population.
- Genetic diversity is caused due to mutations or random breeding in a specie.
- It is good for the adaptation of specie in an environment, due to diverse in genotypes and phenotype of a trait.
<h2>Question number 2:</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>
The correct answer is option B which is the species will adapt to the changes.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
- Adaptation to an environment means changing your body in such a way to reduce the harmful affects of changing the environment on the body.
- For example, the long and thick fur of sheeps in a snowy area will protect them from cold.
- If the environment changes, the first thing a specie do is an adaptation to that change in the environment.
<h2>Question 3.</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>
The correct answer is option D which is, "The spines of a cactus protect it from animals".
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
- Adaptation to an environment means changing your body in such a way to reduce the harmful affects of changing the environment on the body.
- For example, the long and thick fur of sheeps in a snowy area will protect them from cold.
- So the plant of cactus was in danger due to animals. So the start growing spines in response to animals.
- Hence the correct answer is option D.
<h2>Question 4.</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>
The correct answer is option B which is, "Marie's plant will lean toward the sun so that it can get the most sunlight".
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
- The plant will lean towards the sun light by the mechanism of phototropism.
- Phototropism is the mechanism of growth of the plant in a specific direction in the response of light.
- There are two types of phototropism.
- One is a positive phototropism in which plant grows towards the light.
- The other is negative phototropism in which plant grows away from the light.
- In this question,the plant will do positive tropism.
<h2>Question no. 5</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>
The correct answer is option B which is, "The dodo bird could not adapt quickly to the challenges of the environment".
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
- Adaptation to an environment means changing your body in such a way to reduce the harmful affects of changing the environment on the body.
- For example, the long and thick fur of sheeps in a snowy area will protect them from cold.
- So the dodo could not adopt to the environment. For the positive adaption of survival, they should be afraid of sailors but the would not afraid of a sailor.
- Due to which they went extinct.

When a syringe is inserted into the flask containing methane gas the plunger of the syringe is raise up. This led to filling of the syringe with the gas.This relate to Charles law which explain how gas expand with increase in temperature.
