What are some things that have contributed to increased global temperatures due to higher levels of carbon dioxide?
Arisa [49]
There are many lines of evidence which clearly show that the atmospheric CO2<span>increase is caused by humans.  The clearest of these is simple accounting - humans are emitting CO2 at a rate twice as fast as the atmospheric increase (natural sinks are absorbing the other half).  There is no question whatsoever that the CO2 increase is human-caused.  This is settled science.</span>

If someone told you that plate tectonics is just a theory and that it hasn’t been accepted as a law yet, how would this informat
ch4aika [34]

Answer: There are few ‘laws’ in science. Those ‘laws’ are so named for historical reasons, but they are theoretical in nature. They set out what happens when a theory is applied in practice. A theory is simply the best explanation we have for understanding why some process takes place and predicting what the result will be.

Explanation: Anyone who describes something as “just a theory” does not understand what a theory is. Laws are arbitrary human rules. Theories are severely tested and re-tested explanations of why things happen in the real physical world and can be used to make predictions about outcomes.

Some would say that theories are about why something happens and laws (in science) describe what happens. But this simply makes a scientific ‘law’ a subset of a scientific theory, explaining how to make predictions.

In Experiment 5, how did the shape of the epidermal cells in the outer skin surface slide compare to the shape of the epidermal
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. <em>The cells in the outer skin surface appeared flat, whereas the cells in the cross section were not flat.</em>

Explanation:

The epidermis is made up of five cell layers, which have different functions: Stratum basale, stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum, stratum lucidum, and stratum corneum.  

  • <u><em>Stratum basale</em></u> is the <em>innermost germinative, single, basal layer of the epidermis </em>composed of basal cuboidal-shaped cells. These cells are the precursor of keratinocytes, this is why this layer is also called germinativum. In this basal layer, there are also Merkel cells as well as melanocytes.
  • <em><u>Stratum spinosum</u></em> refers to the keratinocytes which produce keratin.
  • <u><em>Stratum granulosum</em></u>, this is the layer where keratinization begins. Cells produce hard granules that change to keratin and lipids as they ascend.
  • <u><em>Stratum lucidum</em></u> is conformed of densely compressed cells, which begins to flatten and appear indistinguishable between each other.
  • <u><em>Stratum corneum</em></u> is the most external layer, composed of dead, flattened cells which are released regularly in a process known as desquamation.
