The correct answer is option (d) atmosphere.
Fossil fuels are the hydrocarbons formed in the geological past, derived from the remains of dead plants and animals. They include the coal, fuel gas and the natural gas. The burning of fossil fuels is one of the greatest contributor of carbon dioxide being added to the atmosphere. This results in the pollution of air in the atmosphere resulting in the formation of smog. Carbon dioxide being a green house gas, affects the atmosphere and causes green house effect leading to global warming and climate changes.
The burning of fossil fuels affects the geosphere, biosphere and hydrosphere indirectly due to its primary direct effect on the atmosphere. Thus, atmosphere is directly affected by the burning of fossil fuels.
The independent variable is the amount of water consumed by the football players.
The dependent variable is the football players' endurance, measured by how many times they can run up and down the bleachers before catching their breaths.
The coach's hypothesis was that the more water consumed, the more endurance the players will have.
There is not a control group present in this experiment, but it would be the set of players who did not drink a bottle of water before practice.
The experimental group is the set of players who did drink a bottle of water before practice.
The constants in the experiment are the operational definitions of endurance (how he measures their endurance), the amount of water each player drinks throughout the week, and the players used in the experiment.
The lack of a set control group poses a threat to the accuracy of the experiment's results.
I pretty sure I answered this and it was B please tell me if I’m wrong
Answer:
Sympathetic nervous system
Explanation:
The sympathetic nervous system of the autonomic division prepares the body for stress or emergency conditions by generating the “fight-or-flight” responses. The sympathetic nervous system triggers the release of stress hormones from the adrenal medulla to generate the set of physiological responses.
There is dilation of the pupil, and an increased rate of heartbeat and increased blood pressure. Other responses include dilation of airways and dilation of blood vessels that supply blood to skeletal muscles, heart muscles, liver, etc. Under the given emergency condition, the sympathetic nervous system of Meghan was activated to generate the fight or flight response.
I think that it’s c but I could be wrong!
