Why is ecological footprint bad?
Why is ecological footprint bad? The ecological footprint is a measure of the resources necessary to produce the goods that an individual or population consumes. Finally, the lack of correlation between land degradation and the ecological footprint obscures the effects of a larger sustainability problem. What causes a high ecological footprint? Resource consumption such as […]
Which fruit or seed is dispersed by animals?
Which fruit or seed is dispersed by animals? Examples include mangoes, guavas, breadfruit, carob, and several fig species. In South Africa, a desert melon (Cucumis humifructus) participates in a symbiotic relationship with aardvarks—the animals eat the fruit for its water content and bury their own dung, which contains the seeds, near their burrows. What seeds […]
What is the angle of incident ray?
What is the angle of incident ray? In geometric optics, the angle of incidence is the angle between a ray incident on a surface and the line perpendicular to the surface at the point of incidence, called the normal. The angle of incidence at which light is first totally internally reflected is known as the […]
What can longitudinal waves not travel through?
What can longitudinal waves not travel through? Longitudinal waves are like mechanical waves which need the medium to propagate. These waves cannot travel through a vacuum. That is, there is absolutely in a vacuum. If there are no substances, then there are no particles for the sound waves to vibrate, which means the sound waves […]
What is the most difficult form of abuse to identify?
What is the most difficult form of abuse to identify? Emotional abuse What happens if you ignore CPS? Q: Do parents have the right to refuse entry to an investigator? A: Yes. But refusing entry to CPS will not end the investigation. If CPS has information that a child may be in danger, they have […]
What are the effects of quenching?
What are the effects of quenching? Even cooling such alloys slowly in air has most of the desired effects of quenching; high-speed steel weakens much less from heat cycling due to high-speed cutting. Extremely rapid cooling can prevent the formation of all crystal structure, resulting in amorphous metal or “metallic glass”. What is the difference […]
What are the 3 magnetic materials?
What are the 3 magnetic materials? Materials that can be magnetized, which are also the ones that are strongly attracted to a magnet, are called ferromagnetic (or ferrimagnetic). These include the elements iron, nickel and cobalt and their alloys, some alloys of rare-earth metals, and some naturally occurring minerals such as lodestone. Does the human […]
Do pilots pee while flying?
Do pilots pee while flying? Piddle Packs are small bags male fighter pilots use to pee while in flight. They are specially shaped bags with absorbent beads in them. If we have to relieve ourselves, we’ll unzip the flight suit—which is designed to unzip from the top as well as the bottom—unroll the piddle pack, […]
What are the applications of DNA sequencing?
What are the applications of DNA sequencing? Homologous DNA sequences from different organisms can be compared for evolutionary analysis between species or populations. Notably, DNA sequencing can reveal changes in a gene that may cause a disease. DNA sequencing has been used in medicine including diagnosis and treatment of diseases and epidemiology studies. What are […]
