    contends, “It has been determined that the amount of greenhouse gases have decreased by almost half because of the prevalence on the utilization of nuclear power”(Energy Future). Our nation utilizes nuclear power for twenty percent of our electricity and this has cut back our greenhouse gas emissions by fifty percent. Ideally, if every country depends on nuclear power for electricity as a world we could virtually eliminate the greenhouse gases produced by power plants. Energy Future declares,…

    that was trapped in the atmosphere makes it's way to the lower atmosphere and the surface heating them up, this process when working normally helps to keep the earth from being a lot colder. This process works thanks to gases such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, and methane theses gases are responsible for blocking the sun's energy from being reflected back into space increasing the amount of energy absorbed by the atmosphere. This means that the more gasthere is in the atmosphere the more…

    primary functions of the respiratory system? The human respiratory system is made up of several organs (nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs). They are responsible in receiving oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide. However, the exchange of gases takes place in the lungs making them an important organ of the breathing process. RBC’s gather oxygen from the lungs transferring it to other parts of the body. During this process the RBC’s gather carbon dioxide and transfers it back to the…
