Transport poses a dilemma in that it is necessary for economic and social development,
yet it is associated with environmental degradation, especially with regard to atmospheric
pollution. The transport sector accounts for about 25 per cent of total commercial energy
consumed worldwide, and consumes approximately one-half of total oil produced. Its emissions
include GreenHouse Gases, most notably CO2, as well as particulate matter, lead, nitrogen oxides,
sulfur oxides and volatile organic compounds all of which have negative impacts at local and
often at regional levels. In addition, it is associated with adverse noise and land use impacts

What would be the best way to test for alternator whine noise?
This is noise coming from a source within the receiver - either the radio or cassette section (noise from a CD transport is very rare). If you determine that the noise originates with your radio antenna, an antenna filter (like American International's AS100) plugs in between the antenna and your receiver to stop (or minimize) noise from entering your system.

What is noise in communication system and the source of the noise?

Which type of membrane transport process uses ATP as a source of energy?
Active transport uses ATP as an energy source.
What is sound polution?
Sound pollution is any loud noise that annoys someone. Sound pollution might happen in a larger city where there is a lot of construction going on.
What is the source of the energy used in active transport?
The source of the energy used in active transport is the electrochemical gradient. Another possible source of energy for active transport is the breakdown of ATP molecules.
