Answer:

the answer is C

Explanation:

we know this because if you compare the graphs and look at the direction. it isn't always in the explanation or the few sentences they gave you at the top. also, look at the waves, you can see in Davids drawing that it is directly straight up, A and B do not represent that. A isn't even a valid answer. Notice also in A that the arrow is going in the completely different direction than in Davids drawing. B is also going a different direction even though it is only turned a little bit although if it was straight up like Davids drawing then it would most likely be a correct answer. C does have one arrow going a different direction but look at how it has two, showing in which if the waves were to turn then the arrow is still valid

Physical science help!

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Let's begin by explaining that the <u>electromagnetic spectrum</u> is the set of electromagnetic radiations distributed in their different frequencies or wavelengths. So, if we go from the smallest wavelengths known up to now (because according to physics the electromagnetic spectrum is infinite and continuous) to the longest, the electromagnetic spectrum covers the following radiations:

Gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet, visible light, infrared, radio waves and microwaves:

-Gamma rays: With a wavelength in the order of $10^{-12}m$ , is a type of ionizing radiation capable of penetrating matter quite deeply and is able to cause serious damage to the nucleus of the cells.

-X rays: With a wavelength between $1m$ and $10km$ . It is invisible to the human eye, capable of crossing opaque bodies and is also an ionizing radiation.

-Ultraviolet light (UV): Whose wavelength is approximately between 100 nm and 380 nm; is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is not visible to the human eye.

-Visible light: This part of the spectrum is located between ultraviolet light and infrared light (400 nm - 800 nm). It should be noted, the fact the only part of the whole electromagnetic spectrum is visible to humans is because the receptors in our eyes are only sensitive to these wavelengths.

-Infrared: This type of radiation is not visible to the human eye, since its wavelengths are outside the visible spectrum (between 700 nm and 1 mm).

These waves can be divided into:

- Near infrared or long wave infrared: it is the least sensitive to color and is easily absorbed by water.

- Medium or medium wave infrared: it is also insensitive to color and easily absorbed by water and many types of plastics and paints.

- Far infrared or short wave infrared: it is more penetrating than the long wave and is good for heating metals, these waves also can pass through clear materials.

This light has many uses, including heating lamps in physiotherapy and medical treatments, heat sensing devices, among others.

-Radio waves: This is a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between 10 m to 10,000 m. This type of electromagnetic waves is very well reflected in the ionosphere, the layer of the atmosphere through which they travel directly or using repeaters. In addition, this radiation is important in telecommunications.

Summarize ocean acidification in one sentence.

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The ocean absorbs a significant portion of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from human activities, equivalent to about one-third of the total emissions for the past 200 years from fossil fuel combustion, cement production and land-use change (Sabine et al., 2004). Uptake of CO2 by the ocean benefits society by moderating the rate of climate change but also causes unprecedented changes to ocean chemistry, decreasing the pH of the water and leading to a suite of chemical changes collectively known as ocean acidification. Like climate change, ocean acidification is a growing global problem that will intensify with continued CO2 emissions and has the potential to change marine ecosystems and affect benefits to society.

The average pH of ocean surface waters has decreased by about 0.1 unit—from about 8.2 to 8.1—since the beginning of the industrial revolution, with model projections showing an additional 0.2-0.3 drop by the end of the century, even under optimistic scenarios (Caldeira and Wickett, 2005).1 Perhaps more important is that the rate of this change exceeds any known change in ocean chemistry for at least 800,000 years (Ridgewell and Zeebe, 2005). The major changes in ocean chemistry caused by increasing atmospheric CO2 are well understood and can be precisely calculated, despite some uncertainty resulting from biological feedback processes. However, the direct biological effects of ocean acidification are less certain

1 “Acidification” does not mean that the ocean has a pH below neutrality. The average pH of the ocean is still basic (8.1), but because the pH is decreasing, it is described as undergoing acidification.

and will vary among organisms, with some coping well and others not at all. The long-term consequences of ocean acidification for marine biota are unknown, but changes in many ecosystems and the services they provide to society appear likely based on current understanding (Raven et al., 2005).

In response to these concerns, Congress requested that the National Research Council conduct a study on ocean acidification in the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Reauthorization Act of 2006. The Committee on the Development of an Integrated Science Strategy for Ocean Acidification Monitoring, Research, and Impacts Assessment is charged with reviewing the current state of knowledge and identifying key gaps in information to help federal agencies develop a program to improve understanding and address the consequences of ocean acidification (see Box S.1 for full statement of task). Shortly after the study was underway, Congress passed another law—the Federal Ocean Acidification Research and Monitoring (FOARAM) Act of 2009—which calls for, among other things, the establishment of a federal ocean acidification program; this report is directed to the ongoing strategic planning process for such a program.

Although ocean acidification research is in its infancy, there is already growing evidence of changes in ocean chemistry and ensuing biological impacts. Time-series measurements and other field data have documented the decrease in ocean pH and other related changes in seawater chemistry (Dore et al., 2009). The absorption of anthropogenic CO2 by the oceans increases the concentration of hydrogen ions in seawater (quanti-
