(a)
To determine: The problems that arise from population growth in less industrialized countries
Introduction:
Less industrialized countries are those where the population density is more. People live in joint families. The industrialized countries are those where the population density is less. People live in nuclear families.
(b)

Introduction:
Less industrialized countries are those where the population density is more. People live in joint families. The industrialized countries are those where the population density is less. People live in nuclear families.
To determine: The greater threat of the problems that arise from population growth in less industrialized countries and industrialized nations.
Introduction:
Less industrialized countries are those where the population density is more. People live in joint families. The industrialized countries are those where the population density is less. People live in nuclear families.

- Most biologists and climatologists agree that the earth is warming, why do people disregard the evidence for global warming? What should be done to reach the public?arrow_forwardWhich of the following is NOT one of the principal factors that sustains life on earth? - the earth's volcanic activity. - gravity that holds the earth’s atmosphere close to the surface of the planet. - nutrient cycling through living and non-living components of ecosystems. - a layer of greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4, N2O, H2O) in the troposphere. - one-way flow of high quality energy from the sun through living things to space. Thank you for answering!arrow_forwardOverfishing key species to near extinction, and polluting them with carbon dioxide emissions, toxic chemicals, garbage, and discarding plastics are all _____________________ What is predicted to happen if people do not change their attitude towards the oceans and marine life? A chemical process that drains the organisms of their brilliant colors and leads to their death is_____________ ‘…every kind of fish is going to be potentially hazardous’ if ____________ The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is an example of ________________ With global plastic production doubling every 10 years, _________________ A hugely destructive technique that involves dragging a large net ___________ The authors of the Science study say it's possible to reverse the current crisis, but _______________________ Emissions from factories and power plants have pushed mercury concentrations in oceans and fish, Tilefish, shark, swordfish, king mackerel, and white tuna — all of which contain particularly high levels of…arrow_forward
- Consider yourself as an owner of a factory using fossil fuel as energy source. Now as an environmental expert, you want to make some decisions or rules in your company to reduce the pollution and also to reduce the global warming. What are the steps that you will take? Explain it in detail.arrow_forwardSCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND SOCIETY In what ways has technology contributed to consumption overpopulation? Can you propose some applications of technology that might help alleviate its effects?arrow_forwardGreenhouse gases ________. a. slow the escape of heat from Earth into space b. are produced by natural and human activities c. are at higher levels than they were 100 years ago d. all of the abovearrow_forward
- INTERTRET DATA Scientists have compiled databases of large forest wildfires in the western United States and compared them to climate and land-surface data. Examine the graph showing wildfire frequency compared to average springsummer temperature. Do you see a correlation? If so, describe it. Based on these data, do you think that climate warming is causing more wildfires? Explain your answer.arrow_forwardChoose the statement that is most likely made by an environmentalist rather than by an environmental scientist. "On average, 52 animal species move one step closer to extinction each year because of overpopulation and habitat destruction.” “Human population growth is a current environmental issue, as is climate change.” “When the number of existing humans exceeds the carrying capacity of the planet, we have reached the state of overpopulation.” “Citizens must take matters into their own hands and start having fewer children to reduce the world’s population, starting now.”arrow_forwardWhy is carbon dioxide, a life sustaining, compound considered pollution and how do scientists know that humans are responsible for the increasing levels of CO2 in the atmosphere and global warming? When does carbon dioxide become a pollutant? Global warming has caused a rise in the world’s oceans. How is this affecting world coastlines? How is this affecting the coastline closest to you? Can you envision some popular tourist locations that might be endangered by a rising ocean? Are “greening” efforts like using biofuels and low-carbon imprint practices too little, too late? Task: Do some research on increasing levels of carbon dioxide in our biosphere and what consequences that will have. Additionally what are some options suggested to help combat this issue?arrow_forward
- Question:- Which of the following would be a good example of a microclimate? The cool humid air that escapes from an opening to a cave creates small region in which the surrounding temperatures are not as extreme across the year as they are just a few feet away. The weather on north of the Himalayan Mountains tends to be different than the weather south of it. The Hurricanes in the Golf of Mexico tend to be stronger than the ones in the Atlantic Ocean east of Florida all but one of the above none of the abovearrow_forwardA bee consumes nectar from a flower witch of the following was described . Two organisms competing for food. A producer. An organism interacting with a non living component of its ecosystem. Or an organism depending on another organism for energy.arrow_forwardWhat exactly is global warming? What role does the use of fossil fuels have in global warming? What are the major implications of global warming? Please keep in mind that you write research sources.arrow_forward
