Answer:

78100,000,000.

Explanation:

78100,000,000 50-year-old trees are needed to capture 1,562,000,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide that were released  in the year 2014 to produce electricity from coal in the United States of America alone if each tree captured or consumed 0.02 metric tons of carbondioxide gas per year. This value get when 1,562,000,000 is divided by 0.02.

As solar energy interacts with carbon dioxide, water vapor, and several other gases in the troposphere, it warms the troposphere
Veronika [31]

As solar energy interacts with carbon dioxide, water vapor, and several other gases in the troposphere, it warms the troposphere process known as the Green house effect.

  • Troposphere is the lower most part of the earth's atmosphere comprises of Nitrogen, Oxygen, Argon, Carbon dioxide and Water vapour.
  • Carbondioxide, water vapour and other gases like methane are concentrated highly in the Trophosphere due to some human activities (Industrial revolution).
  • Such excess Green house gases forms a shield layer which retains the heat by trapping the long wave radiation of solar energy in troposphere. As a result, global warming and abnormal weather conditions occurs in the planet.

Cell biologist, Dr. Martine Dinen, is observing an organism's cell using a transmitting electron microscope. She notices that wi
Assoli18 [71]

The cell is most likely prokaryotic because:

Prokaryotes lack membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus due to which the DNA are seen throughout the cytoplasm.

Eukaryotes have membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus. So for eukaryotes, the DNA will be present packed inside the nucleus instead of being dispersed in the cytoplasm.

Prokaryotes can either be autotrophic or heterotrophic depending on their mode of nutrition. Autotrophic prokaryotes can make organic molecules for a carbon dioxide source. On the other hand, heterotrophic prokaryotes can take carbon from organic compounds. Hence, the organism can be autotrophic or heterotrophic.
