8 0

Answer:

91%

Explanation:

As per the given pie chart, Non-Renewable sources include Coal, Nuclear power, Natural gas, and Petroleum.

Percentage of Coal = 52%

Percentage of Nuclear power = 16%

Percentage of natural gas = 20%

Percentage of Petroleum = 3%

∵ Total percentage of non-renewable sources of energy = Coal + nuclear power + natural gas + petroleum

= 52%  + 16% + 20% + 3%  

=   91%

While the other 9% is renewable energy including 7% Hydropower and 2% of geothermal, wind, solar energy, etc.

Thus, 91 % is the combined percentage of US energy produced by all of the nonrenewable sources.

(9) What would most likely occur after an ecosystem is disrupted by fire? 1. The ecosystem would eventually return to its origin
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

1. The ecosystem would eventually return to its original state

Explanation:

There is a whole part of ecology concerned about the effects fires have on the ecosystem and its processes.<u> It has been determined that most of the ecosystems are very renewable, managing to return to the previous state after the fires. </u>

For nature, fires are the normal process and the ecosystem is therefore adaptable to them. They manage to help the soil, clean out the litter, and shape the environment for regrowth. There are even species of animals and plants whose existence and reproduction is connected to the fires.

With human interventions in both starting and suppressing the fires, the ecosystem is disrupted and there is less chance of renewal.
