Answer:
Nuclear energy produces radioactive waste
A major environmental concern related to nuclear power is the creation of radioactive wastes such as uranium mill tailings, spent (used) reactor fuel, and other radioactive wastes. These materials can remain radioactive and dangerous to human health for thousands of years
Explanation:
:>
I disagree because although recycling is good, Earth firstly is not a closed system and new matter enters the environment all the time, such as comets.
Answer:
C) Scrubbers remove sulfur from the smoke of coal power plants.
Explanation:
Well most scrubbers in North America (U.S) coal plants are used to remove sulfur emissions from coal and lessen the formation of acid rain.
Answer:
The likely explanation is that population 1 had traits which were more favorable to its survival than population 2's in the new conditions. It wouldn't have to do with food competition, but the traits they already have that may or may not be conducive to their survival in the new conditions.
Explanation:
Let me explain. Say a drought occurred on an island. Population 2 relied on eating bugs that lived in the green grasses. Population 1 relied on eating cactus fruit, which is drought-resistant. Say that because of the drought, population 2 started to decrease since there were less bugs to eat because the grasses dried up. Population 1 is unaffected because the bugs they eat were still in abundance.
This all has to do with the concept of natural selection. Species with traits that are good for their environment will likely do well unless a change in conditions occurs which makes their traits no longer favorable.
Hope that makes sense!
Answer:
Well, on one hand, this is a good thing as negative effects of the high demand for wood such as deforestation can be minimised. This will also sustain the supply of wood for several applications. However, there could be negative consequences of propagating such genetically-modified trees, which were not stated or are not yet known. For instance, the trees could be extreme soil nutrient consumers—depleting soil nutrients at a faster rate than they can be replenished and rendering such soil infertile in a short period.
