Which of these decreases as greenhouse gas pollution increases?
A. Rate of ice-sheet melting
B. Ocean salinity
C. Ocean surface temperature
D. Sea levels

Answers

Answer 1
The answer should be ocean salinity as the ice sheet melting increases, sea levels rise and the temperature increases. Process of elimination.
Answer 2

The climate-changing gases present in the atmosphere are greenhouse gases. An increase in greenhouse gas decreases the salinity of the oceans and sea. Thus, option B is correct.  

What are greenhouse gases?

Greenhouse gases are the major factor contributing to global warming and climate change. They are present in the atmosphere and have increased with a rise in the level of pollution.

The greenhouse gases have an inverse effect on the salinity or the thermohaline circulation. The increased temperature affects the glaciers and results in the melting of the ice caps thereby increasing the water level and surface temperature.

The increased water level and temperature increase the evaporation rate and elimination along with the circulation rate of the water from the poles and equator resulting in decreased salinity.

Therefore, the greenhouse gases decrease salinity.

What process occurs at the boundary between the capillaries and the alveoli?


A.
Nitrogen enters the alveoli, and oxygen enters the capillaries.
B.
Oxygen enters the alveoli, and carbon dioxide enters the capillaries.
C.
Oxygen enters the alveoli, and nitrogen enters the capillaries.
D.
Carbon dioxide enters the alveoli, and oxygen enters the capillaries.

Answers

Answer: D.  Carbon dioxide enters the alveoli, and oxygen enters the capillaries.

Explanation:

This describes the exchange of gases in the lungs. When blood from the rest of the body gets to the lungs through the capillaries, oxygen flows from the alveoli which are tiny air sacs in the lungs, into the blood in the capillaries.

Carbon dioxide from the blood brought to the lungs will then flow into the alveoli which will then expel it through the nose. This repeated process ensures that the body keeps getting oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide.

An athlete throws the javelin 212 m. The average speed of the javelin was 15 m/s. How long was the javelin in the air?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - 14.133 seconds.

Explanation:

The time that the javelin took in the air before landing after the 212 m throw can be calculated by simple distance and velocity formulas which say that the speed of an object is equal to the distance traveled by the object in unit time.

Given:

Speed or s = 15 m/s

Distance or d = 212 m

Then, the time or t =?

Solution:

By the formula, s = d/t

or t = d/s

t = 212/15

t = 14.1333

thus, the correct answer is - javelin was in the air for 14.1333 seconds.

This pedigree chart tracks the inheritance of a recessive trait that is not sex-linked. Based on the information in the chart, which of the following statements is true about individuals 3 and 4?

They are both hom ozygous dominant for the trait.
They are both hete rozygous for the trait.
At least one is hom ozygous for the trait.

Answers

Answer:

C. They are both heterozygous for the trait.

Explanation:

It is not possible for both parents to be hom ozygous dominant, as that would only produce hom ozygous dominant children, and from the chart they have one child that is recessive.

It is not possible for only one parent to be heter ozygous, as again, that would only produce dominant children.

Lastly, it is not possible for only one to be hom ozygous, because that again would only result in dominant children.

Pairing two heter ozygous parents would result in a 25% chance of a recessive child.
