How do you think particulates in the atmosphere might affect the earth temperature?
Particulates in the atmosphere reflect solar radiation and prevent it reaching the earth. This has the effect of lowering the temperature of the earth. This happened seriously in the mid-20th Century, but was stopped by Clean Air Acts round the world. It also happens for a few days after a volcanic eruption.
What nutrients are present in cereals and green vegetables such as spinach and prevent the absorption of calcium and iron?
vitamin D
How do they keep sperm from uniting with egg?
Barrier methods like condoms prevent sperm from reaching the egg. Hormonal methods like birth control pills prevent ovulation, making it so there is no egg for sperm to fertilize. Intrauterine devices (IUDs) can also prevent sperm from reaching the egg or fertilized egg from implanting in the uterus.
Which type of electromagnetic radiation does the ozone layer prevent from reaching the surface of the earth?
The ozone layer helps prevent ultraviolet (UV) radiation from reaching the surface of the Earth. UV radiation is harmful to living organisms and can cause skin cancer and other health issues.
How do plastics hinder normal growth of plants?
Plastics in the soil can prevent water and nutrient absorption by roots, leading to stunted growth in plants. The presence of plastics can also block sunlight from reaching the plants, disrupting photosynthesis and impacting their overall growth and development. Additionally, chemicals leaching from plastics can be toxic to plants, further hindering their growth.
Reflection and absorption by the atmosphere prevent some?
The sun's total energy package. There are about 1355 watts hitting each meter of atmosphere. Roughly 375 watts reach our planet. This amount varies greatly on weather conditions. Water vapor (clouds) provide most of the feedback loop.It is believed that man's contribution of 0.28% of the total green houses gases may have some affect on the current warming. Science suggests (and data supports) that this may well not be the issue. While man has been steadily increasing his contribution of CO2 to the atmosphere (now reaching 6% of total CO2 production and 0.28% of total GHG) we are seeing a steady decline in temperature worldwide. The crest seems to have been in 1998. The start point of this warming was about 6000 years ago. Of the 11 degrees (C) of warming we have verified, only 0.2 has occurred since man started using fuel.Reflection and absorption by the atmosphere prevent some solar radiation from reaching the earth's surface.
What are three things that happen to sunlight that prevent some of it from being absorbed by Earth's surface?
Reflection: Sunlight can be reflected back into space by clouds, ice, snow, and other reflective surfaces. Scattering: Sunlight can be scattered in different directions by particles in the atmosphere such as dust and aerosols. Absorption: Some sunlight is absorbed by gases in the atmosphere, such as ozone and water vapor, before reaching Earth's surface.
How is the heat prevented from reaching the surface?
Heat is prevented from reaching the surface through various mechanisms such as reflection, absorption, and scattering by the Earth's atmosphere, particularly by greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and water vapor. These gases trap heat and prevent it from escaping back into space, creating a greenhouse effect that helps regulate Earth's temperature. Additionally, clouds and aerosols can reflect incoming solar radiation back into space, further preventing excess heat from reaching the surface.
How does the presence of oxygen in our atmosphere help reduce the amount of ultraviolet radiation that reaches the earths surface?
Oxygen in the atmosphere helps to absorb and scatter incoming ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. This process occurs in the stratosphere, where oxygen molecules break apart the incoming UV radiation. This absorption and scattering of UV radiation by oxygen prevent a large amount of harmful UV radiation from reaching the Earth's surface.
Do hot spices prevent the absorption of bacteria from food?
No, hot spices will not prevent absorption of bacteria from food, nor will it prevent bacteria from growing on the food.
What does the atmosphere absorb to protect earth?
The atmosphere absorbs harmful radiation from the sun, such as ultraviolet (UV) rays, through the ozone layer. This protection helps prevent this radiation from reaching the Earth's surface and harming living organisms.
What prevents drugs from reaching the fetus?
The umbilical cord can prevent drugs from reaching the fetus.
What is a kill flash?
its a Device that sits inteh end of a scope to prevent prevent scope reflection
What did the British do to prevent supplies and reinforcements from reaching?
they had a blockade
Does Plan B prevent sperm from reaching the egg?
No, Plan B does not prevent sperm from reaching the egg. It works by delaying or preventing ovulation, which is the release of an egg from the ovary.
How can I prevent or reduce reflection on glass surfaces?
To prevent or reduce reflection on glass surfaces, you can use anti-reflective coatings, adjust the lighting in the room, or use polarizing filters on your camera or lens.
How is carbon extracted form the atmosphere?
Carbon is extracted from the atmosphere through processes such as photosynthesis in plants, where they absorb carbon dioxide and convert it into organic compounds. Carbon can also be removed from the atmosphere through chemical reactions with minerals, absorption into the oceans, and carbon capture technologies. Efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions can help prevent excess carbon buildup in the atmosphere.
