Answer:

nearly one million tons per year

Explanation:

Midgely would receive the Society of Chemical Industry’s Perkin Medal for this research in 1937; in 1941, he was awarded the Priestley Medal, the American Chemical Society’s highest award, for his contributions to chemistry.

By the early 1970s, CFCs were in widespread use, and worldwide production of the compounds had reached nearly one million tons per year, representing roughly a $500 million slice of the chemical industry.

What do you think will happen if we continue to destroy the world's rainforests?​
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

CO2 levels will dramatically increase as well as food level supply will decrease. Oxygen levels will decrease too.

Explanation:

 Plants take in CO2 and produce Oxygen. Without plants, they can't take in CO2, and it is a necessity for them to take it in. Plants would die. Food supply would decrease because plants produce glucose during photosynthesis. Glucose is a kind of natural sugar that will be lost. Plants produce fruits or vegetables, so if there are no plants then no food.

Hope this helps!

Vlad [161]

It is mRNA because RNA, which stands for ribonucleic acid, is a polymeric molecule made up of one or more nucleotides. ... During the process known as transcription, a RNA copy of a segment of DNA, or messenger RNA (mRNA), is made. This strand of RNA can then be read by a ribosome to form a protein.

Which of the following is a decomposer?
faltersainse [42]

According to an answer from another and a bit of my own research;

A decomposer is exactly what it sounds like, an organism that decomposes something and feeds off of it. You can eliminate the answers "Owl" and "Hawk" from a first glance as they are both consumers. Looking at it again, an "Ant" is <em>not </em>a decomposer, but rather, a consumer just like your other two options. This leaves "Fungus", something that decomposes it's food.

Please forgive me if I'm wrong. Feel free to ask for more information and I will scour the internet to see what I can find. <3
