Answer;

B. To clean up oil spills using natural bacteria.

Explanation;

-Biostimulation involves the modification of the environment to stimulate existing bacteria capable of bioremediation. This can be done by addition of various forms of rate limiting nutrients and electron acceptors, such as phosphorus, nitrogen, oxygen, or carbon, which are otherwise available in quantities low enough to constrain microbial activity

-It is a type of natural remediation that can improve pollutant degradation by optimizing conditions such as aeration, addition of nutrients, pH and temperature control. It can be considered as an appropriate remediation technique for petroleum pollutants removal in soil and requires the evaluation of both the intrinsic degradation capacities of the autochthonous microflora and the environmental parameters involved in the kinetics of the in situ process.

An increase in seawater density can be caused by a ________ in temperature or a/an ________ in salinity
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

decrease; an increase

Explanation:

Density is a physical quantity which depends upon two factors mass and volume. Density has a direct relationship with mass while an indirect relationship with volume i.e. if mass will increase then density will also increase but if volume will increase then density will decrease.

The formula for density is mentioned as under:

Density = mass/volume.

Here, in this question the reason why density of sea water will increase if temperature decreases is because a decrease in temperature will result into less movement and therefore lesser space between water molecules and lesser space indicates less volume. Since, volume and density has inverse relationship so less volume will be responsible for increase in density.

When it comes to salinity, an increase in salinity will result into the higher density of sea water. When salts dissolve into the water they add to the mass/weight of the water i.e. mass of the water increases with increase in salinity. Since, mass and density have direct relationship, an increase in salinity will increase the density of water.

IceJOKER [234]

Hypothalamus

The hypothalamus maintains a steady internal environment for the body.  

The hypothalamus is a complex part of the brain that is located under the thalamus and above the pituitary gland. One of the main roles of the hypothalamus is to maintain homeostasis by keeping the human body in a balanced condition. The hypothalamus plays a part in various important functions of the body such as appetite and weight control, body temperature, emotions, sleep cycles, stress, blood pressure and levels of hormones in the circulation.
