A river valley, with adequate flow, and sufficient gradient, and a sufficiently large surface area of water storage; these are the needs for an hydroelectric power station.

Sometimes, the water from one water catchment may be led via a tunnel to a discharge site which offers an overall better fall.

Which two processes are most closely associated with structure A?

Structure A is most closely associated with photosynthesis and is typically found in plant cells. It is the chloroplast, the organelle responsible for converting light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose.


Auto-trophic activity in plant cells is most closely associated with the oranganelles called?

Chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis, the process by which plants use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water. This allows plants to produce their own food in the form of sugars.


What are the benefits of hydroelectric power?

Hydroelectric power is a renewable energy source that produces electricity with minimal greenhouse gas emissions. It is reliable and can provide a consistent power supply. Additionally, hydroelectric power stations can be used to regulate water flow, preventing flooding and ensuring water availability for irrigation and drinking.


What form of energy goes into a hydroelectric energy station and what form comes out?

Mechanical energy in the form of E= mgh, water falling, goes in and electrical enegy comes out.


What is the atom that is most closely associated with living things?

Carbon is the atom most closely associated with living things because it forms the backbone of organic compounds, including carbohydrates, fats, proteins, and nucleic acids, which are essential for life processes. Carbon's ability to form covalent bonds with other elements allows it to create a wide variety of complex molecules that are crucial for the functioning of living organisms.

Is the source of hydroelectric power considered fossil fuel?

Hydroelectric is ultimately solar power. The water that powers the dams is brought in from the ocean by solar evaporation that returns to the earth in the form of rain or snow. Aside from the costs (not just money but also environmental) of building dams, hydroelectric power is free for the taking.
