<span><span>Large nameplate capacity per plant, typically around 1 GW.
</span><span>Typically 90% capacity factor, maximizing output from the nameplate capacity.
</span><span>Small fuel transportation volumes as the fissionable material just isn't that big or heavy compared to equivalent fossil fuel BTU sources.
</span><span>Low CO2 per MWH on a full life cycle basis. ~12 grams which is only slightly more than wind / solar.
This is a reason nuclear is a much better source for one of the major pressing problems of today than fossil fuels: global warming.</span>No particulate matter pollution.No sulfur dioxide or other chemical pollution.<span>Low fatalities per TWH.

Answer:

1. C

2. B

Explanation:

1. When a plant cell looses some water due to dehydration or being placed in a hypertonic solution, the term used to describe the cell's intial, not severe shrinkage is 'flaccid'.

Here, it's clear that the cell shrank so much that the cell membrane pulled away from the cell wall. The correct term for this severe shrinkage is 'plasmolysed'.

We don't use 'wilted' as a term to describe a cell. We use it to describe the plant as a whole.

2. This is the function of each. Water and ions in xylem and sugars like sucrose in phloem.

Answer:

c) Habitat isolation

Explanation:

Habitat isolation is a mechanism that prevents species from mating even if they don't have reproductive barriers. The differences in the habitat types may thus be sufficient to develop reproductive isolation between two (or more) populations
