☆☆☆☆☆High Heat Capacity of Water
· * Because most organisms on this planet are mostly made up of water, it is important that water has a high heat capacity because it enables organisms to resist drastic temperature changes.
· * Another example of the high heat capacity of water is how the water in ponds and lakes acts when the weather changes. When it gets hot, the water does not boil because of this high heat capacity.
Hope this helps! XD
Warm, humid
The climatology method is another way of producing weather forecasts. It takes data over many years and compiles it to predict what type of weather will come.
A stationary front
It forms a front, which is a narrow zone. Also, severe weather can occur when two air masses meet. Along a front, precipitation can occur and cause weather changes.
the tropical zone (:
Assuming you mean total energy produced rather than electricity alone, the order would be petroleum, nuclear, wind power
As water vapor cools to the dew point it converts from a gas back to a liquid.
It is thought that there were 5 major ice ages in Earthâ??s history. The most recent event was over 2 million years ago, and was in the Quaternary period.
they are both currents.
The word "pleasant" has its roots in the Latin word "placare" meaning peaceful.
The term is foliation.
Heat provides the energy required to form thunderstorms and thus tornadoes.
Burning of the fossil fuels releases the carbon dioxide.
Tornadoes form in thunderstorms, which are composed of cumulonimbus clouds. Usually a tornado will form from a wall cloud that develops are the based of the cumulonimbus cloud, and will develop from a funnel cloud that comes out of the wall cloud.
Positive environmental effects of nuclear energy revolve around air pollution. With nuclear energy, there is less waste that gets distributed into the atmosphere. The air is actually cleaner due to the fact that no air pollutants are released.
