An enormous rift in one of Antarctica’s largest ice shelves grew
dramatically over the past month, and a chunk nearly the size of
Delaware could break away as soon as later this winter, British
scientists reported this week.
If
this happens, it could accelerate a further breakup of the ice shelf,
essentially removing a massive cork of ice that keeps some of
Antarctica’s glaciers from flowing into the ocean.

Answer:
Explanation:
Im not 100% sure, but I think that because the snake venom gets stronger, other species that have adapted to the weaker venom have a harder time fighting it. For example, the honey badger can fight of snake venom with its very thick skin and ability to sleep it off. However, if the snake venom got stronger/deadlier, the honey badger would have a much harder time fighting it, and might die.
Answer:
Saturated fats/ solid fats
Explanation:
Vegetable oils amongst other unsaturated oils are liquids at room temperature while saturated oils are solids or spreadable at room temperature.
Industrially, vegetable oils are hydrogenated; hydrogenation is the process of adding hydrogen to an unsaturated compound to make it saturated. This then makes these hydrogenated vegetable oil, saturated which makes them solids as earlier stated, they are also called cis - fatty acids.
Trans - fatty acids as well are also unsaturated oils which are hydrogenated industrially to give saturated fatty acids which are called artificial tran-fats. They are found in most commonly found in baked and fried goods.
