Some suggestions for measures that the United States can implement to avoid contributing to greenhouse gases!

Biology
1 answer:
Masja [62]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

1. Increase the use of green renewable energies  

2. Promote recycling  

3. Controlling industrial greenhouse CO2 emissions from the transportation sector  

4. encourage the use of non-polluting means of transport (e.g., walking over road transport)

Explanation:

First, renewable energies are energy sources generated naturally without the use of fossil fuels (e.g., solar energy, wind energy, geothermal energy, etc). Thus, these green energies can replace the use of fossil fuels in a sustainable manner, and therefore reduce the emission of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2). Second, recycling can drastically reduce the amount of energy required to synthesize new products and reduces the need for new materials, being thus also useful to reduce CO2 emissions that result from extracting virgin materials. Third, the industries from the transportation sector produce the largest part of greenhouse gas emissions, thereby encourage the use of green energies in this area may represent a good alternative to reduce CO2 emissions. Finally, it is well known that urban transport generates about 40% of all CO2 generated by road transport, and thereby invest in green transport systems such as bicycling and walking may also represent a useful strategy to reduce CO2 emissions.

Synthetic forms of the male hormone testosterone that are used to cause muscle hypertrophy are called _______
Greeley [361]
Anabolic steroids are synthetic forms of the male hormone testosterone that are used to cause muscle hypertrophy.

It is properly knowns as anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS). They are anabolic in nature and increases the protein found within the cells especially in the skeletal muscles. It also has varying degrees of androgenic and virilizing effect which includes inducing the development and maintenance of male secondary sexual characteristics such as facial and hair body growth.

In the 1930s AAS were synthesized and are recently used as a therapeutic medicine to stimulate muscle growth, increase appetite, induce puberty in males and treat wasting conditions among cancer and AIDS patients. It was also acknowledged by the American College of Sports Medicine that AAS, when joined with an adequate diet, can contribute to increasing the body weight, often as lean mass increases and the gains in muscular strength are achieved by doing high-intensity workout and proper diet.

Brief description of a sea otter​

<h3>An intelligent, water-agile mammal with a main diet of sea urchins.</h3>

Sea otters tend to inhabit the shores of the pacific (sometimes rivers, ponds, or lakes), a favorite habitat is the kelp forests on the coast of California. Mother otters even tie their babies (and sometimes themselves) in kelp leaves, keeping them near and preventing floating away when diving for food. This is a clear sign of intelligence, and they classify as mammals. Otters stay in groups led by a dominant male, but sometimes females will leave with their babies, or males will depart in search of their own group to manage.
