Answer:

What is the greenhouse effect?

  • The greenhouse effect is the process by which radiation from a planet's atmosphere warms the planet's surface to a temperature above what it would be without this atmosphere.
  • Light energy emitted by the sun warms the earth's surface, which reflects the energy as heat that warms the atmosphere. Much of the heat is captured by greenhouse gas molecules such as water, carbon dioxide, and methane.
  • Radiatively active gases (i.e., greenhouse gases) in a planet's atmosphere radiate energy in all directions. Part of this radiation is directed towards the surface, thus warming it. The intensity of downward radiation – that is, the strength of the greenhouse effect – depends on the amount of greenhouse gases that the atmosphere contains. The temperature rises until the intensity of upward radiation from the surface, thus cooling it, balances the downward flow of energy.

Native species of North America are often defined as those species that were present in North America before Europeans arrived i
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

a) Yes! the American chestnut tree is a native species. The American chestnut tree was present before the Europeans arrived in North America in the 1600s. Since a native species has been defined as any species that was present in North America before the arrival of the Europeans, then it is a fact that the North American chestnut tree is a native species.

b) The chestnut blight is an invasive species that is native to east East Asia, and was accidentally introduced into North America around the early 1900s, when the Japanese chestnut was commercially cultivated in the United States.

c) Invasive species tend to proliferate at a very high rate because they lack some natural constraints in the new environment such as natural predators, competition, and as in the case of this chestnut blight; the host has no natural defense mechanism against them. These conditions allow them thrive more than they would in their natural environment, unchecked

d) Yes, I agree with this idea, albeit to some extent. The development of hybrid chestnut resistant to the chestnut blight will possibly return the forests back to how it was before the Europeans arrived in the 1600s, but the genetic conservation will be altered, since these new trees will be an hybrid of the old trees, and the forest won't truly be as it was before the 1600s

This drawing shows economic development in a coastal zone that has ignored the processes of____
Alex

According to the image, it can be inferred that the economic development of that place did not take into account natural erosion (option A).

<h3>What is natural erosion?</h3>

Erosion is a term that refers to the wear of soil and rocks as a result of different physical and chemical processes on the Earth's surface. In general, erosion implies movement, transport of material, in contrast to the alteration and disintegration of rocks or soil.

According to the above, it can be inferred that the construction of the image did not take into account the erosion of the place because it shows that the foundations of the house are on the land surface that is towards the beach.

From the above, it can be inferred that erosion will degrade the soil in this area as a result of the impact of the waves and the constant wind. This puts the structure at risk because it will lose support and may collapse.
