What is Climate Change?
Climate change is a change in the usual weather found in a place.
How it helps us:
Studying the climate helps us predict how much rain the next winter might bring, or how far sea levels will rise due to warmer sea temperatures. ... We can also see which regions are most likely to be affected by extreme weather, or which wildlife species are threatened by climate change.
How it works:
As the earth's atmosphere heats up, it collects, retains, and drops more water, changing weather patterns and making wet areas wetter and dry areas drier. Higher temperatures worsen and increase the frequency of many types of disasters, including storms, floods, heat waves, and droughts.
How it affects us:
Human health is vulnerable to climate change. The changing environment is expected to cause more heat stress, an increase in waterborne diseases, poor air quality, and diseases transmitted by insects and rodents. Extreme weather events can compound many of these health threats.
Which of the following is true about the coasts of North and South America? O A. Little industry is located along the coasts, B. There are few cities and the population is sparse. O c. A majority of the population is located there. D. People go to the coasts only when on vacation,
Answer:
The correct answer is C. In North and South America, a majority of the population is located on the coasts.
Explanation:
Historically, the vast majority of civilizations have sought to establish their urban centers around bodies of water, be they rivers or seas, that allow them a rapid expansion outward as well as channels through which to channel trade. Thus, it can be seen how throughout the world and especially the American continent, large cities and population centers are located primarily on the coasts. Examples of this situation are Vancouver in Canada, New York and Los Angeles in the United States, Rio de Janeiro in Brazil or Buenos Aires in Argentina.
Phenylketonuria causes a severe cognitive disability due to the inability to metabolize phenylalanine. It is an autosomal recessive disorder. About one in 12,000 newborns in Massachusetts are afflicted with the disease, skewed higher than the general US population due to more Irish-Americans. Assuming the gene is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the frequency of the carriers (heterozygotes) in Massachusetts would be calculated to be...
Answer:
The frequency of the carriers (heterozygotes) in Massachusetts is 0.018

Why can't weeds take over the world? In other words, what limits the growth of populations?
Answer and Explanation:
Many elements can limit population growth. The main elements that can cause this are the lack of resources necessary for the life and development of living beings and the lack of space to be taken by them. In relation to weeds, these resources can be the availability of sun, amount of soil, soil fertility, availability of water and space. However, these plants are very resistant to the lack of these resources, and what most limits their growth is human interference.
Weeds are unfavorable to agriculture and other human activities. This makes humans fight the population growth of these plants using chemical products and even physical strategies. This interference prevents weeds from taking over the world.
