andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

b. heat energy

Explanation:

Water, which is able to exist in three different states moves from one form to another. Water can move from the ocean to the atmosphere via a process called EVAPORATION. During the process of evaporation, the sun plays a major role by supplying the HEAT ENERGY required to change water from its liquid form in the ocean to its gaseous form in the atmosphere.

Water cycle of the earth helps ensure that water is not lost in any of its forms. Liquid water stored in the ocean gets evaporated as a result of heat energy into the atmosphere as water vapour.

Answer:

Most likely diagnosis is Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC), most likely caused by years of prolonged exposure to sunlight over time.

Explanation:

Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) is a common type of skin cancer that develops when the basal cells that is responsible for producing new skin cells when they die, become mutated and causes the basal cell to abnormally multiply rapidly and continues to grow. The accumulation of these abnormal cells is what results  in cancerous tumors that appears like ulcers on the skin. Prolong and intense exposure to the ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sunlight has been linked to the most likely cause for the mutation of the DNA in the basal cells which leads the abnormal cell growth and multiplication. People who expose themselves to the radiation of the sun for longer periods, over time, are at high risk of developing this cancer.
