Answer:

Coal

Explanation:

A renewable energy source is a source of energy that is not likely to run out within our lifetimes. The wind will never go away. Neither will the Sun. Although we know that the Sun is going to explode, since it is a star, it is not likely that it will happen in our lifetimes. Water is also not likely to run out completely within our lifetimes. However, coal on the other hand will run out some day; it takes millions of years to make coal, and people are using it faster than it can replenish itself.

A good way to remember which energy source is renewable and which is not is to look at how much it pollutes. Fossil Fuels such as Coal, Oil, and Natural Gas pollute a lot, and they are all nonrenewable energy sources. On the other hand, clean energy sources such as solar power, hydropower (water power), and wind power do not pollute as much, and they are all renewable resources. (Please note that this relationship is not causation, but rather correlation. The amount of pollution an energy source emits does not cause it's renewability.)

I hope this helps!

How does hydropower and solar power work together?
KIM [24]

Solar energy is energy that comes from the sun and is captured by solar cells. These cells transform the energy of photons of light into electrical energy. One mechanism is the energization of electrons, here the energy of the photons is transferred to the electrons, which can already be considered electric energy.

As for the hydroelectric energy, here the waterfalls or rivers flow driving a turbine, which will transform the movement into usable electric energy as it rotates.

Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation: The random change in the gene pool is due to genetic drift. Remember, genetic drift occurs at a more rapid rate when the population size is reduced. The flood is a random occurrence. It could have as easily been a drought.

erica [24]

Answer:

b. epinephrine on beta 2 receptors causes bronchodilation

Explanation:

This is because epinephrine is an hormone and neurotransmitter that stimulate beta 2 receptors which causes signaling and their in presence in airway smooth muscle causes bronchodilation, which counter the activation of the M3 muscarinic receptors in cardiovascular. When stimulate in skeletal muscles it can lead to increased contractility and also to muscle tremors.
