Here we will discuss  Damage to infrastructure in the 2010 Haiti earthquake.

Toussaint Louverture International Airport:

If we talk about the focus point of the Haiti earthquake  that hit the Haiti  on 12th january, 2010, then it was around 6 miles away from Toussaint Louverture International Airport.

Since the center was so near to airport that is why airport suffered from alot of damage. The control tower of the airport was almost completely destroyed due to which any radio communication became impossible. There was heavy power outrage due to damage caused to the power lines and due to this lightening system of the airport was completely shutdown. was damaged. However,  the taxiways, runways and apron parts of the airport were operational at even that time of crisis.

Due to immense amount of damaged caused to Toussaint Louverture International Airport, all the relief bringing planes were diverted to other airports of the city.

The reconstruction and rehabilitation of the airport was started during 2010. It included the restoration  and renovation of arrival and departure halls that were previously completely devastated. The renovation os falls included  installation 16 new stations and three large baggage carousels and  in the immigration room, There was also a significant explansion in the custom rooms.

However, the damage caused to Toussaint Louverture International Airport dur to 2010 Haiti earthquake is still considered as the destruction of major landmark due to earthquake.

Hope it helps!

Answer:

C - ao desenvolvimento de ovos depositados por borboletas.

Explanation:

Antes de responder a sua pergunta, eu preciso te explicar que esse não é o servidor brasileiro e sim o servidor dos EUA, você deve ter percebido que toda a linguagem do site esta em inglês. Isso significa que você só deve postar perguntas em português no campo "World Languagens" mesmo que a sua pergunta seja de biologia como essa. Caso você não faça isso, a sua pergunta pdoe ser excluída, sem ser respondida.

As lagartas que surgem nas espigas de milho, são resultado do ciclo de vida da lagarta e refere-se ao momento em que os ovos depositados nas plantas de milho pelas borboletas se chocam, liberando as lagartas, que se desenvolverão e virarão novas borboletas.

É impossivel que um grão e milho vire uma lagarta, ou que o sabubo apodrecido pode gerar lagartas. Além disso, o ´processo de geração espontanea é uma teoria cientifica invalida e que não deve ser considerada.
