Answer:

Explanation:

1. Hydrological cycle: the continuous movement of water between the Earth's surface and the atmosphere.

2. Industry: pollutes water sources by dumping wastes in rivers, streams, and oceans.

3. Sewage: the leading cause of water contamination in countries without water treatment plants.

4. Agriculture: a source of water pollution caused by the overuse of pesticides and fertilizers.

5. Eutrophication: caused by an overabundance of organic matter in water supplies.

6. Putrefaction: the decomposition of organic matter by microorganisms

7. Pesticides: a chemical pollutant that can enter the water cycle through agricultural or domestic use.

8. Petroleum: can cause the contamination of underground water supplies if poured on the ground

9. Lead: a metal that leaks into water supplies via the soil or aging water systems.

10. Humoral immunity: depends upon the production of disease-specific antibodies to destroy harmful bacteria.

11. Stimulants: increases the activity of the central nervous system.

12. Depressants: reduces the activity of the central nervous system.

13. Bacterial infection: caused by the reproduction of a small infectious agent, which produces poisons that destroy cells

The moon causes the earths Rotation to speed up / slow down which ?
My name is Ann [436]

Answer: slow down

Explanation:As Earth rotates, the Moon's gravity causes the oceans to seem to rise and fall. (The Sun also does this, but not as much.) There is a little bit of friction between the tides and the turning Earth, causing the rotation to slow down just a little. As Earth slows, it lets the Moon creep away.

amid [387]

Solar power would, without doubt, be the most efficient type of power plant to build in this specific location. This is due to the fact that solar power produces no pollution in an environment. Also this type of alternative energy fits this communities resources due to the fact that the community receives primarily sun , a huge component in solar power, and little cloud coverage only increases the sun's power that much more. On the other hand, biomass needs things like wood, crops and alcohol fuels to burn in order to produce energy, some of which are not viable in this type of community because a place with little to no irrigation sources and an abundant amount of sunlight would be hard to produce any kind of natural aspect. Lastly, hydroelectric energy would not be a efficient of even viable choice because this community has no natural water available at hand to use for this alternative energy to function, and hydroelectric works primarily on a water storage.
