Nearly all of the energy that earth receives from the sun is used in photosynthesis?
Nearly all of the energy that earth receives from the sun is used in photosynthesis is true.
How much of the sun's energy does the earth receive?
The Earth receives about .00000005% of the Sun's energy (but only absorbs about 70% of what it receives), which ends up being about 174 petawatts.
What factors affect the solar energy earth receives?
The Sun's solar output is more or less constant (it is getting hotter very slowly but over human time scales this is irrelevant) and the planet Earth is not growing in diameter. This means that the solar irradiation Earth receives is dependent on its position on its orbit. The orbit is slightly elliptical and therefore in December it is closer to the Sun than in June. This distance is the only factor that affects the solar energy impinging on the planet.
What is the most common way the earth receives water?
rain
Is the hemisphere of earth that is tilted away from the sun receives less direct rainfall than the other hemisphere receives?
true
Are all organisms on earth will die without a constant supply of oxygen true or false?
false
Why is the sun's stability so important to us?
Almost all of the energy that Earth receives and uses, comes from the sun. This energy is used to grow plants and animals (even humans). Life on Earth owes its existence to the sun's radiant energy. If we lost this energy supply, or if it wasn't as constant as it is, chances are life on Earth, as we know it, would cease.
How long does salt water stay on earth?
The water supply on Earth remains constant. Water continuously changes and relocates through the water cycle.
How does the water cycle keep the earth's water supply constant?
earth remain Fly constrant over time though this does not mean that precipitation will increase
If demand decreases and supply is constant what happens to the equilibrium price?
If demand decreases and supply is constant, the price will increase.
Why does an organism need energy and constant supply of energy?
An organism needs energy and constant supply of materials to grow and develop.
Why does an organism need energy and constant supply of materials?
An organism needs energy and constant supply of materials to grow and develop.
What is the layer from the sun the earth receives the most energy from?
The layer in which the Earth receives the most energy is the photosphere
What happen to price when supply is constant and demand increaes?
prices will fall if demand decreases and the supply is constant. the supply curve will be vertical and demand curve will be downward sloping.
When earth receives energy from sun?
The 70% of the sun's energy that is absorbed by the earth's surface, differences in solar energy that the earth receives across the globe.
If supply shifts to the left and demand remains constant?
Price will increase, quantity will decrease
How earth receives and gives off?
Receives and gives off what? Please elaborate
