How are greenhouses gases helpful?
Greenhouse gases are helpful because they keep the earth warm enough for life. Too much greenhouse gases warm the earth up too much.
How is the Bohr's model of atoms helpful to scientists today?
The Bohr model remain useful to explain the atomic structure to nonspecialists or students in lower grades.
What are examples of investigatory projects that are not yet proven?
Things like the feasibility of charcoal as a fuel are investigatory projects; things that scientists are investigating as potentially true or helpful but have not yet been proven as such.
Why do mountains sometimes build up around a volcano?
Volcanoes are places where the melted or molten part of the earth is squeezed out onto the surface. Some volcanoes are more gentle, and the lava, or molten rock, oozes out without exploding. Hawaiian volcanoes are this sort. Other volcanoes are very explosive, sometimes blowing off their entire tops in one huge eruption, like Mt. St. Helens in the US. Volcanoes build up into mountains because as the lava flows out, it hardens into rock. The more lava that comes out, the higher the rock pile!
What gas is both harmful and beneficial to life on Earth?
CO2, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Ozone. Water vapour
How are greenhouses gases helpful?
Greenhouse gases are helpful because they keep the earth warm enough for life. Too much greenhouse gases warm the earth up too much.
Why is thermal imagery helpful when studying volcanoes?
Thermal imagery is helpful when researchers are studying volcanoes because it allows them to see the volcanic heat and identify new lava flows. Thermal imagery help analyze heat patterns of volcanoes.
Why are volcanoes harmful to the earth?
They can change the temperature all around the world by a few degrees. Also, there's the lava to think about. But that can be helpful, because it helps scientists study certain rocks that cool from the lava and about bacteria and such.
Are volcanoes harmful?
Volcanoes can be usually considered harmful, but in some cases, volcanoes can actually be helpful, so this is a win-win situation. Or a lose-lose. Who knows.
How is pedigree helpful to scientists?
A pedigree is helpful to scientists because then they can figure out what trait and/or sex-linked disorder is being passed on and if it is going away.
Are greenhouse gases helpful?
Greenhouse gases are helpful because they keep the earth warm enough for life. They are essential.Too much greenhouse gases are unhelpful because they make the earth too hot. Global warming is causing climate change which may make the world very uncomfortable for our children and grandchildren.
What is the surface condition on Venus?
very mountainouse and has some volcanoes hope this was helpful
What are helpful thing volcanoes do?
They provide ash for crops which helps them grow and nourish.
How are constellations helpful to astronomers?
constellations aren't particularly helpful to scientists. they were helpful to people in ancient times for navigation and the answers to the unknown
How volcanic eruptions can be be helpful?
Vocanoes can be helpful because the earth's first oceans and atmosphere were formed from the gases given off by volcanoes. Volcanoes have also shaped the earth's landscape, many of our mountains, islands, and plains have been built by volcanic eruptions.
What is a branching key and how are they helpful?
They are useful for scientists to seperate genus and species
Are volcanoes helpful?
yes. Volcanoes can be helpful because: 1. The volcanic soils are the richest and you can earn a farmland. 2. It can bring diamonds from deep under the earth. 3. Lava and tuffs can be use for building. 4. Engineers use steam by rocks of the volcano to make electricity.
