Answer:

The Earth has a finite amount of water. The water that is here today is the same water that will be here in 20 or even 20 million years’ time. So, if all living things use water, how is it that we don’t use up all our water? The answer is that water is constantly recycled through the Earth’s system through a process called the water cycle.

Dynamic and complex: the global water cycle

Water in the Earth system is influencing all aspects of life on Earth. Pathways, storage, transfers and transformations have an effect on the global climate and human welfare. Within this interactive 4 scientists talk about some of the complex aspects of the water cycle.

To use this interactive, move your mouse or finger over any of the labelled boxes and click to obtain more information.

The water cycle encompasses a number of processes that circulate water through the Earth’s subsystems. Water evaporates from within soils and through vegetation and from bodies of water (such as rivers, lakes and oceans). This evaporated water accumulates as water vapour in clouds and returns to the Earth as rain or snow. The returning water falls directly back into the oceans, or onto land as snow or rain. It soaks into the soil to move into the groundwater or runs off the Earth’s surface in streams, rivers and lakes, which drain back into the oceans. The water may be taken up by plants and returned to the atmosphere through processes like transpiration and photosynthesis. Water may also be returned to the atmosphere through the combustion of plants in fossil fuel.

The dynamic water cycle

In this video, four New Zealand scientists – Dave Campbell, Louis Schipper, David Hamilton and Keith Hunter – talk about how only a small percentage of the Earth’s water is freshwater, and of that small percentage, only a fraction is available for human use.

Water and the atmosphere

Water enters the atmosphere through evaporation, transpiration, excretion and sublimation:

Transpiration is the loss of water from plants (via their leaves).

Animals excrete water by respiration and by passing urine.

Sublimation is when ice or snow transforms directly into water vapour without going through a liquid phase (i.e. they do not melt).

Water commonly occurs in the atmosphere in the form of water vapour. If it cools down, it can condense, accumulating in clouds. As the clouds grow, they become heavier and can fall back to the Earth as precipitation (rain, snow, hail or sleet) or re-evaporate back into vapour.

Water and the biosphere, hydrosphere and geosphere

When water returns to Earth, it can either enter the hydrosphere or the geosphere.

Give at least three facts autotrophs and heterotrophs on earth are true?
White raven [17]

Answer:

  • Autotrophs are usually defined as those that can prepare their own food by carrying out the process of photosynthesis, but heterotrophs cannot prepare their own food and are directly dependent on the autotrophs for food. Examples of autotrophs are plants and trees, and examples of heterotrophs are animals and human beings.
  • Autotrophs are the lowest organisms in the trophic level, where they produce the food for the consumers (heterotrophs). On the other hand, the heterotrophs lie above the autotrophs and when they consume their food, they obtain only 10% of the energy, and the remaining energy is released into the environment.
  • Autotrophs can make organic substances by the use of inorganic molecules, but heterotrophs cannot make these substances. They are only dependent on the molecules prepared by these autotrophs.

Thus, these are three of the facts regarding autotrophs and heterotrophs existing on earth that are true.

Why are biofuels not necessarily the answer to energy problems?

1. Vantagens do uso dos biocombustíveis

- Possibilita o fechamento do ciclo do carbono (CO 2 ), contribuindo para uma estabilização da concentração do gás na atmosfera;

- No caso específico do Brasil, há grande área para o cultivo de plantas que podem ser utilizadas para a produção de biocombustíveis ; 

- Geração de emprego e renda no campo (assim evita o inchaço das cidades);

- Menor investimento financeiro em pesquisas (como pesquisas de prospecção de petróleo são muito despendentes);

- O substituto de biodiesel bem o óleo diesel sem necessidade de ajustes sem motor;  

- Redução do lixo no planeta (pode ser usado para produção de biocombustível ); 

- Manuseio e armazenamento de seguros e combustíveis fósseis.

 

2. Desvantagens do uso dos biocombustíveis

- Consome grande quantidade de energia para uma produção;

- Aumento de consumo de água (para irrigação das culturas);

- Redução da biodiversidade;

- Como culturas para produção de biocombustíveis consomem muitos fertilizantes nitrogenados, com liberação de óxidos de nitrogênio, que também são gases estufa;  

- Devastação de áreas florestais (grandes consumidoras de CO 2 ) para plantio das culturas envolvidas na produção dos biocombustíveis ; 

- Possibilidade de redução de produção de alimentos em detrimento do aumento da produção de biocombustíveis , o que pode contribuir para aumentar da fome no mundo eo encarecimento dos alimentos; 

- Contaminação de lençóis freáticos por nitritos e nitratos, participação de fertilizantes. A ingestão dos produtos causadores respiratórios, devido à produção de meta-hemoglobina (hemoglobina oxidada);

- A queima da cana libera grandes quantidades de gases nitrogenados, que retornam ao ambiente na forma de “chuva seca” de fertilizantes, segundo pesquisa do químico ambiental Arnaldo Cardoso e publicada na revista “Unesp Ciência, edição de fevereiro de 2010.  Nos ambientes aquáticos, o efeito é muito rápido: proliferação de algas, com liberação de toxinas e consumo de quase todo oxigênio da água, o que provoca a morte de um grande número de espécies.
