A hurricane passes through the Gulf of Mexico and destroys many of the coastal regions of Northwest Florida,
Which of the following is a likely impact of this catastrophic event on biodiversity?
Species brought in by the storm surge will displace species native to the coastal wetlands.
Species reliant on coastal wetlands for survival may experience a decline in population due to loss of
habitat.
Coastal wetlands will grow exponentially with the input of nutrients from storm upwelling and biodiversity
will increase in these areas.
Excessive salt from the storm surge will flood coastal wetlands and raise salinity to intolerant levels for the
local species, causing a decrease in biodiversity

Some technological solutions to problems like global warming meet the specific needs and situations of local communities. an example from india involves converting the solid waste from cattle into clean-burning fuel for cooking. this reduces the amount of greenhouse gases, specifically methane and carbon dioxide, released into the environment from wood fires. when evaluating the feasibility of implementing this solution, computer models are used to weigh costs against benefits. what factor is least likely to impact the decision on adopting this technology?

Clara wrote the following hypothesis for an experiment about acidophilic bacteria. bacteria cells will stop dividing in a basic (alkaline) environment because of the high ph. which statement is the best way to restate the hypothesis so that it is more specific? growing acidophilic bacteria in some environments will cause the cells to stop dividing because of ph. if the ph of their environment is changed, acidophilic bacterial cell division will be affected. if the environment of acidophilic bacterial cells becomes alkaline, the bacteria will stop dividing. the more alkaline an environment, the less cell division will occur in bacteria.
