Answer:

Because the land surface was then largely covered in ice, continental weathering effectively ceased. This locked the planet into a 'Snowball Earth' state until carbon dioxide released from ongoing volcanic activity warmed the atmosphere sufficiently to rapidly melt the ice cover. This model does not, however, explain one of the most puzzling features of this rapid deglaciation; namely the global formation of hundreds of metres thick deposits known as 'cap carbonates', in warm waters after Snowball Earth events.

The Southampton-led research, published in Nature Geoscience, now offers an explanation for these major changes in ocean chemistry.

Lead author of the study Dr Tom Gernon, Lecturer in Earth Science at the University of Southampton, said: "When volcanic material is deposited in the oceans it undergoes very rapid and profound chemical alteration that impacts the biogeochemistry of the oceans. We find that many geological and geochemical phenomena associated with Snowball Earth are consistent with extensive submarine volcanism along shallo

Answer:

plant cells have chloroplasts and a cell wall. (they also have one large central vacuole.)

Explanation: Chloroplasts are found only in plant cells. Chloroplasts convert energy from the sun into sugar (glucose). The chloroplast is also where photosythesis happens in the plant cell. The cell wall is also only found in a plant cell. The cell wall protects and mantains the shape of the cell. And you don't have to put this one but the central vacuole is just one big vacuole in a plant cell that stores mainly water and nutrients since plant cells require more water to function, whereas in animal cells they have multiple small vacuoles.

kvasek [131]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

White blood cells cannot function properly and their reduced production can lead to fever and frequent infections. This is because the function of white blood cells in fighting germs has been disrupted.

Other signs and symptoms:

- Weak and tired.

- Lack of appetite and weight loss.

- Swelling and bleeding gums.

- Headache.

- Abdominal swelling is caused by enlargement of the liver and lymph.

- Bone pain, can cause weakness.

Joint pain.

- The glands are swollen. If the glands in the neck and chest are swollen, it can cause blood flow to be blocked. This causes the face to swell, difficulty breathing and snoring.
