in a discussion, a student makes the following statement regarding the cause of global warming, "The sun's rays penetrate the at

mosphere through the ozone hole and heat up the atmosphere and the surface, thereby causing global warming." is the student correct? why or why not? in your responce, briefly explain both phenomena.

sun rays will not penetrate the ozone layer. they enters the earths atmosphere by the radiation processes. Ozone Layer gets depleted by the action of chlorofluorocarbons which were released by automobiles and refrigerators. and that results in the entry of UV rays which are harmful for life forms. and global warming phenomena is a result of greenhouse effect which explains the phenomenon of the heat which entered Earth's atmosphere by radiation, does not completely reflected back! rather, it (heat) gets stored in the atmosphere which results in the increase in temperature of the earth! and global warming was useful upto some extent in our ancient days. It resulted in the melting of himalayan ice mountains which in turn resulted in the increase of sea level. but now, global warming has become a major headache for us!

Answer:

Student is incorrect.

Global warming is result of greenhouse effect as caused by increased level of greenhouse gases in atmosphere.

Explanation:

The student is incorrect. The solar radiations do not need ozone hole to penetrate the atmosphere. Rather, the whole layer of atmosphere is penetrable for solar radiations. Only some specific part of it such as UV rays are absorbed by ozone present in the stratosphere.

During the night, the earth's surface reflects back part of absorbed solar radiations. The greenhouse gases such as CO2, water vapor, etc. absorb the radiations reflected back by earth's surface. Since these reflected radiations do not escape to space, the earth's global temperature is increased and the process is called global warming.

2. What is an example of something studied on the molecular level (as opposed to the atomic level)?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Something studied on the molecular level is the water.

Explanation:

Water is a molecule formed by two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom, whose chemical representation is H₂O. It is a molecule whose polarity makes it a universal solvent of other polar molecules.

The molecular level corresponds to the level of organization where two or more atoms unite to form molecules or substances, united by chemical bonds. H₂O is studied at this level due to its chemical structure.

With respect to other options:

  • <u><em>Hydrogen and oxygen</em></u><em> are atoms, and correspond to the level of atomic organization.</em>
  • <u><em>Protons</em></u><em> are particles that are part of an atom, and correspond to the subatomic level.</em>

Choose two of the organ systems from the list below and describe how they work together to allow the body to function properly.
storchak [24]

Answers

The circulatory and respiratory systems work together to circulate blood and oxygen throughout the body. Air moves in and out of the lungs through the trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles. Blood moves in and out of the lungs through the pulmonary arteries and veins that connect to the heart.

Digestive System gets nutrients (good) from food and hands it over to the blood and Circulatory System then carries those nutrients where they need to go.

The excretory system removes waste from the body. remove waste from the blood. The digestive system breaks down the food you eat into nutrients that provide energy and building materials for cells. The digestive and excretory sytems work together to process the food that you eat.
