B. The hole in the ozone layer over Antarctica got bigger.

Explanation:

Using the bar scale in the map, we can vividly see that the hole in the ozone layer over Antarctica got bigger. The reduction in the intensity of the blue color in the 2015 suggests that there has been an appreciable decrease in the ozone cover over Antarctica.

  • Ozone layer is in the stratosphere and it prevents harmful ultraviolet rays from reaching the earth surface.
  • Over the the years, the increasing use of chlorofluorocarbons in aerosols, as refrigerants have led to a surge in the depletion of this layer.
  • From the imagery shown on the map, in 2006, we can vividly see a very thick blue cover over Antarctica.
  • In 2015, the cover is gone.

Which of these best explains why mitochondria are called the "powerhouses" of the cell?
Sindrei [870]

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

They generate chemical energy in the form of ATP.

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell because they "burn" or break the chemical bonds of glucose to release energy to do work in a cell. This releases energy (ATP) for the cell. The more active a cell (such as a muscle cell), the more mitochondria it will have.

Ichthyology is the field of study that deals with fishes. Taxonomy (classification and the description of new species) and biogeography are the two main areas of focus for museum ichthyologists (patterns of distribution). Large reference collections of preserved specimens are kept in museums as a permanent resource for present-day researchers as well as for future ones.

Heat Transfer discussion based question
lilavasa [31]

Answer: Thermal energy flows from a warmer material to a cooler material.  When thermal energy is transferred to a material, the motion of its particles speeds up and its temperature increases. There are three ways heat is transferred into and through the atmosphere: Radiation, conduction and convection.

Radiation is when energy, in the form of electromagnetic radiation, is emitted by a heated surface in all directions and travels directly to its point of absorption at the speed of light; thermal radiation does not require an intervening medium to carry it. Conduction is the process by which heat energy is transmitted through collisions between neighboring atoms or molecules. Convection is heat transfer by mass motion of a fluid such as air or water when the heated fluid is caused to move away from the source of heat, carrying energy with it.
