Amining company wants to extract methane hydrates from the seafloor. which two factors would a marine biologist most likely investigate to determine if this is appropriate? a. if the area is ecologically sensitive and how the activity would impact the food web b. the size of the methane deposits and how the activity would impact the water temperature c. the amount of drilling needed and how the activity would impact the ph of the water d. the potential energy of the methane deposits and how the activity would impact the deep sea currents

The answer is B. This is due to the fact that methane is a very potent greenhouse gas, 20 times more effective than carbon dioxide in causing global warming. mining of large quantities of the methane hydrates would cause rapid global warming and consequently result in increased ocean temperatures. Increased ocean temperature also contribute to the increased release of methane from the methane hydrates in the oceans hence exacerbating global warming.

one is through turgidity. this occurs before ground tissue ( collenchyma

and sclerenchyma cells) become well

developed to give structural support to the plant as it grows bigger. the xylem

tissue (composed of rigid tissue) of the young

plant render this support and also maintaining osmotic turgidity of the surrounding

plant cells.

not too sure but maybe in the hot springs.
