Answer: a. decreases the present and future risk to human properties
Explanation:
Properties along the coasts can be in danger when high tides come in. This can however be mitigated by walls protecting those properties as it would take a significantly high tide (flood proportion) to scale those walls and come in and damage the property.
These walls therefore not only decrease the present risk to human properties but if maintained, decrease the future risks as well.
Answer:
Water vapor is a greenhouse gas, which absorbs the heat radiated from the earth's surface. It allows less heat to escape back to space by trapping the heat energy in the lower atmosphere and keeps the atmosphere warm.
Explanation:
Water vapor is formed through a process called evaporation. In this process, water from the ocean, rivers, and lakes evaporates to become water vapor using the energy from the sun. Water vapor also moves into the atmosphere by transpiration (plants) and sublimation (snow and ice).
The water vapor cools down and transforms into water droplets by a process called condensation, as it rises high in the atmosphere where the air is cooler. This water droplets that formed by condensation make up clouds.
When the earth’s surface get heated by the sunlight, some of the heat radiates back into the atmosphere and most of this heat is absorbed by gases in the atmosphere called green house gases. This process is called greenhouse effect, which keeps the earth warm. The green house gases mainly consists of carbon dioxide and water vapor. Water vapor absorbs the heat radiated from the earth's surface. It allows less heat to escape back to space by trapping the heat energy in the lower atmosphere and keeps the atmosphere warm.
The amount of water vapor in the atmosphere is directly proportional to the temperature. When addition of the other greenhouse gases causes a temperature increase (such as extra CO2 from fossil fuels), more water evaporates and this leads to an increase in water vapor which further increases the atmospheric temperature since water vapor is a greenhouse gas. So, water vapor is part of a positive feedback system.
Answer: The vulnerable embryo must be sheltered from desiccation and other environmental hazards. In both seedless and seed plants, the female gametophyte provides protection and nutrients to the embryo as it develops into the new generation of sporophyte.
Explanation:
i think this may help
Answer:
The 3 major observations were:
1. More individuals are produced each generation that can survive.
2. Phenotypic variation exists among individuals and the variation is heritable (through parents' genes).
3. Those individuals with heritable traits better suited to the environment will survive.
Explanation:
Charles Darwin was a British naturalist who proposed the theory of known to everyone as 'The Theory of Evolution' through natural selection.
There is four kingdom in the domain eukarya.
Domain eukarya is made of eukaryote organism. Domain eukarya has 4 kingdom: Protista, Fungi, Plantae and Animalia. The member of Plantae is autotroph organism that has chlorophyll and capable of doing photosynthesis. Fungi has cell wall that made of chitin. Animalia doesn't have cell wall.
