4 0
1. Early earth had no ozone layer, which means it was most likely extremely hot.
2. Young earth had no oxygen and life needs oxygen in order to survive.
3. There where so many natural disasters happening all the time, like volcanic eruptions and constant impact with meteorites and asteroids.
-Extra one (4. Earth originally had no ocean and water. Oceans eventually formed from the water vapor released from the volcanic eruptions, but before that there was nothing.)

2. Can the classification system change? If so, provide an example of a way it has changed in the past. (2 points)
Elis [28]

Yes, classification system is still evolving together with our knowledge.

But, before changing the name (e.g. of a species) it is important to collect and gather a wealth of information in order to support that change. Classification system is still evolving. The reasons for the changes are DNA analyzes. It is the new way for discovering relation between organisms and put them in the right context (classification used to be based on morphological characteristics).

Change in classification can be shown in an example of fungi. In the 90s fungi classification included only phyla Chytridiomycota and Zygomycota. Now theyhave been classified mainly on the basis of characteristics of their sexual reproductive structures. So, there are 7 phyla now: Microsporidia, Chytridiomycota, Blastocladiomycota, Neocallimastigomycota, Glomeromycota, Ascomycota, and Basidiomycota

PLZZZZZZ HELPPP how do we obtain energy from wind PLZ WRITE A PARAGRAPH ABOUT ITTT PLEASEEEEE
sladkih [1.3K]

Explanation:

Wind energy, or wind power, is created using a wind turbine, a device that channels the power of the wind to generate electricity. The wind blows the blades of the turbine, which are attached to a rotor. The rotor then spins a generator to create electricity . Wind energy is a renewable energy source that is clean and has very few environmental challenges. Wind power actually starts with the Sun. In order for the wind to blow, the Sun first heats up a section of land along with the air above it. That hot air rises since a given volume of hot air is lighter than the same volume of cold air. Cooler air then rushes in to fill the void left by that hot air and voila: a gust of wind. The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy describes a wind turbine as “the opposite of a fan.” Simply stated, the turbine takes the energy in that wind and converts it into electricity. So how does it do that? First, the wind applies pressure on the long slender blades, usually 2 or 3 of them, causing them to spin, much like the wind pushes a sailboat along its path through the water. The spinning blades then cause the rotor, or the conical cap on the turbine, and an internal shaft to spin as well at somewhere around 30 – 60 revolutions per minute. The ultimate goal is to spin an assembly of magnets in a generator which will, well, generate voltage in a coil of wire thanks to electromagnetic induction. Generators require faster revolutions, however, so a gear box typically connects this lower speed shaft to a higher speed shaft by increasing the spin rate to around 1000 to 1800 revolutions per minute. These gear boxes are costly as well as heavy, so engineers are looking to design more “direct-drive” generators that can work at the lower speeds.
