<span>A) Ultraviolet light stopped the replication process of bacteria. 
Stopped or slowed this process, hint the sterilization.  

The question doesn't directly ask this but, after a while a lot of bacteria become immune to treatment especially antibiotics. </span>

Answer A) Ultraviolet light stopped the replication process of bacteria.

UV radiation is the mutagen which means it can cause mutation in the genome of the living organisms such as humans, bacteria, virus and other microorganisms. These rays are harmful for bacterial colonies when particularly exposed to wavelength of 260nm to 270nm. These radiations breaks molecular bonds within the bacterial DNA, these radiations results in the formation of thymine dimers which can kill the bacteria.

On the basis of the above description, Ultraviolet light stopped the replication process of bacteria is the relevant option.

CO2 has been referred to a greenhouse gas because it acts to trap the sun’s heat on our planet like the grase in a greenhouse tr
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

a. As CO2 increases, the temperature also increases.

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an atmospheric molecule produced naturally via respiration or artificially via burning of fossil fuels. CO2, as rightly stated in this question, has been referred to as a greenhouse gas because it acts to trap the sun’s heat on Earth.

Logically, an increase in the amount of greenhouse gas like CO2 released into the atmosphere means an increase in the greenhouse effect or global warming (increase in global air temperature). However, according to the GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION in this question, an increase in the ppm concentration of CO2 led to an increase in the temperature (°F) of the globe over the years.

As depicted on the graph, at a CO2 concentration of 390ppm, the relative temperature was at over 1°F.
