Answer:

The correct answers to the question posted here, would be thus:

1. Geothermal energy: Might vent toxic underground gasses. Although geothermal sources of energy are considered in general beneficial, and have a lot of pros, there are some cons to it. One of them is that through it gases can be released from the eart to the surface and the other is that extraction of these types of energy may cause natural situations like earthquakes.

2. Solar energy: May not be captured at night in most regions. Since this source depends entirely on the solar emitions towards Earth, and the power of solar rays, at night, this power source would be lost, especially in places where emitions at night are really low.

3. Biomass: Releases CO2 into the atmosphere. This source of energy has been debted for a long time, particularly because science has tried to garner the power of this source of energy in order to use available resources with minimum damage to the environment. However, the process of degradation of biomass generates large amounts of CO2, which in itself would deny the purpose of seeking cleaner sources of energy.

Please answer this question about the tea act:

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

The Tea Act of 1773 was one of several measures imposed on the American colonists by the heavily indebted British government in the decade leading up to the American Revolutionary War (1775-83). The act’s main purpose was not to raise revenue from the colonies but to bail out the floundering East India Company, a key actor in the British economy. The British government granted the company a monopoly on the importation and sale of tea in the colonies. The colonists had never accepted the constitutionality of the duty on tea, and the Tea Act rekindled their opposition to it. Their resistance culminated in the Boston Tea Party on December 16, 1773, in which colonists boarded East India Company ships and dumped their loads of tea overboard. Parliament responded with a series of harsh measures intended to stifle colonial resistance to British rule; two years later the war began.
