The correct statement describing environmental consequence of unsealed Landfills is : ( A ) Landfills can produce carbon dioxide that leak into the atmosphere

A landfill is composed of 4 essential components and some are ;

  • bottom linear
  • hydrogeologic component and
  • A cover ( seal )

Given that a landfill constitutes of about 40 to 60 percent of C0₂ the environmental consequence of not providing a proper seal for the landfill will be the leakage of C0₂ into the atmosphere. while

The release of Heavy metals as leach ate into the surrounding can be controlled with the provision of a system in the landfill, materials in landfill undergo decomposition for a long period of time.

Hence we can conclude that Landfills can produce carbon dioxide that leak into the atmosphere.

Which of the following statements is accurate?
PIT_PIT [208]

C. Useful energy out of a system is always less than the energy input of that system.

Explanation:

The correct statement of the given options is that useful energy out of a system is always less than the energy input of that system.

This is in compliance with the third law of thermodynamics which states that "energy transformation in a system is not 100% efficient".

  • At every stage energy is usually lost when it is transformed from one form to another.
  • There is no machine that is 100% efficient.
  • A machine that is 100% efficient will convert all the useful energy in it to do work and even more.
  • In system energy is usually lost as a result of heat and to overcome friction.
  • This reduces the amount of energy out of a system.

If a cell with 36 chromosomes undergoes mitosis, how many cells will be produced and how many chromosomes
ELEN [110]

Answer:

B. There will be two cells each with 36 chromosomes.

Explanation:

The products of mitosis are called diploid cells, and they each have the complete set of chromosomes. These cells are usually important for activities such as growth, repair etc. They make up our normal body (somatic) cells. Therefore, the answer is 36, only 36 matches the description of genetically identical cells
