Hot air always rises from the equator. As this air climbs higher in the sky, it cools. Cool air can hold less water than warm air. This means that as the air cools, clouds form that release most of the water they hold. Because the cooling air is above the equator, the moisture rains back down on the tropics.
Answer:
Option (3)
Explanation:
Springs (hot springs) and geysers are formed when the water from the interior of the earth are ejected into the earth's surface. In simple words, these are formed in the region where the groundwater and the ground surface intersects with each other.
The water obtained from springs can be cold or hot. Those that produce hot water are termed as hot-spring. These hot springs and geysers indicates the occurrence of volcanic activity. This water becomes hot due to the interaction with the magma at certain depths below the ground surface.
The geysers are also a type of hot-springs which produces hot water.
Thus, the correct answer is an option (3).
Answer: The correct option is D (Antimicrobials).
Explanation:
Antimicrobial treatment is defined as therapies that are given to patients to either inhibit or kill the growth of microorganisms IN their body cells. The antimicrobial treatment can be grouped into two based on their mechanism of action. These includes:
--> Microbiocidal therapy: This type of treatment when given, kills the microorganisms in the cells of the patient.
--> Microbiostatic therapy: This type of treatment aims at inhibiting the growth of microorganisms when administered to a patient.
The antimicrobial drugs achieve their role usually through their different modes of action which includes:
--> cell wall inhibition
--> inhibition of cell membrane function
--> protein and nucleic acid synthesis inhibition.
Disinfects, antiseptic and sterilisation are all different ways of eliminating microorganisms but not used as invitro (within) treatment for patients. Therefore the term that best matches the description given is antimicrobials.
Answer:
Hurricanes are large, swirling storms. They produce winds of 119 kilometers per hour (74 mph) or higher. That's faster than a cheetah, the fastest animal on land. Winds from a hurricane can damage buildings and trees.
tornado is a violent rotating column of air extending from a thunderstorm to the ground. The most violent tornadoes are capable of tremendous destruction with wind speeds of up to 300 mph. They can destroy large buildings, uproot trees and hurl vehicles hundreds of yards. They can also drive straw into trees.
Earthquake is a term used to describe both sudden slip on a fault, and the resulting ground shaking and radiated seismic energy caused by the slip, or by volcanic or magmatic activity, or other sudden stress changes in the earth.
A flood is an overflow of water that submerges land that is usually dry. In the sense of "flowing water", the word may also be applied to the inflow of the tide. Floods are an area of study of the discipline hydrology and are of significant concern in agriculture, civil engineering and public health.
Wildfires are fires that burn out of control in a natural area, like a forest, grassland, or prairie. They often begin unnoticed. They spread quickly, and can damage natural resources, destroy homes, and threaten the safety of the public and firefighters. Humans cause most wildfires.
