b .natural gas, coal, and oil
c .wood, natural gas, and solar
d. coal, oil, and solar

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

B: natural gas, coal, and oil  

Explanation:

All fossil fuels are carbonated substances formed from organic matter  comming from plants, microorganisms, and algae. This organic matter have been accumulating for millions of years in the bottom of seas or lakes and buried, fossilizeing. This fossilized matter is what gives origen to fossil fuels.  They have an important, although not quietly considered, characteristic: They are non-renewable resources.  

Coal is a fossil fuel that highly contributes to climatic change, polluting not only air but also water and the soil. By burning it, its gases contribute to increase the greenhouse effect and consequently producing global heat. This is affecting all forms of life that depend on these resources, including human beings. During the coal combustion process, several particles are released to air, polluting and being the cause of smog and acid rain. In spite of its reduced use in the last years, coal is still the principal fuel used by thermal, refineries, chemical, and still work industries.  

Oil is also a huge contaminator and it generates a dangerous waste that is very harmful to the environment. Its elimination by incineration or split provokes huge pollution problems in the air, water, and ground. In water, it produces an impermeable film that impedes gas exchange and causes suffocation in the living forms that inhabit there.  But if the oil is burned it generates nocive gases that are very toxic because of their content in plumb, chloride, phosphorus, sulfur, among others.

Natural gas is a hydrocarbure composed mostly of methane and other light hydrocarbures. As it is ussually found in deep underground depossits, the origen of natural gas is associated with petrolium, and hence they share many similar energetic properties.

Which type of wave results from a moderately sloping coastal region? Plunging breaker

Spilling breaker

Surging breaker

Tsunami wave

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is spilling breaker.

Explanation:

The spilling breaker is also known as surf wave is an over-steepened wave in which the unsteady top of the wave tumbles down the front of the waveform as it progresses towards the shallower water. This results in a gradual reduction of the height of the wave unless it moves up the beach as swash.  The kind of wave, which arises from a moderately sloping coastal region will be a spilling breaker, as it is a common wave related to moderate beach gradient.

Answer:

Plunging Breaker

Explanation:

There are three types of "normal waves". The Surging breaker is when the beach has a steep slope, the spilling breaker is when the beach is almost perfectly flat. That leaves the plunging breaker, which is a wave that occurs when the beach is moderately flat. Hope this helps!

Which part of the neuron receives electrical impulses and is made of branched fibers? a. myelin sheath b. node of ranvier c. axon d. dendrites

Answers

Answer:Dendrites

Explanation:

dendrites
Most neurons possess these branch-like extensions that extend outward away from the cell body. These dendrites then receive chemical signals from other neurons, which are then converted into electrical impulses that are transmitted toward the cell body.

What is the benefit of using a shortcut in a reaction between two chemicals ?

Answers

Answer:

To yield more output

Explanation:

The shortcuts in a chemical reaction are used to yield the final output by following a short route rather than the chemically defined long process of production thereby yielding final chemical product in higher amount as the production would become faster.

For example –  

If the chemical process in photorespiration is replaced with shortcuts, the chemical products can be recycled very easily at one location instead of following the natural path of processing.  

A reaction with a shortcut would yield more chemical output
