Verdich [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:  Given your four choices, the best/most correct one would be (c) the sunlight that evaporated water that eventually falls as rain and fills the reservoir. It is the potential energy stored in the reservoir water which is "released" as it is converted to kinetic energy (the movement of water which spins the hydroelectric generator turbine, etc.), but the absolute source of that original potential energy comes from the Sun's action to evaporate lake or ocean water which is returned to Earth as rain ... and it is this rainwater which ultimately fills the reservoir behind the hydroelectric power plant.

Komok [63]

Answer:

Planet X has a moon similar to Earth's moon.

longer exists, which path would the moon take?  <u><em>2</em></u>

Explanation:

There are none of these planets in our solar system. But they might exist in other star systems. There, some moons might escape their parent planets’ gravity and start orbiting their parent stars instead. That’s according to new computer simulations. Scientists have dubbed the liberated worlds “ploonets.” And, the scientists say, current telescopes may be able to find the wayward objects.

Some bacteria live in the roots of plants like soybeans and peas. What is the role of these bacteria in the nitrogen cycle.
love history [14]

Answer:The nitrogen present in the soil is not directly used by the bacteria. It can be used only when the nitrogen is converted into usable form. These bacteria convert  atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia, then nitrite which is then converted into nitrate. This nitrate is used by the roots of the plants like soybeans and peas. This is the role of bacteria present in the roots of the plant to convert atmospheric nitrogen into usable form that can be used by plants.
