Which of the following practices that are needed to run a nuclear power plant has a negative impact on both air and water?

a.
cooling of the power plant
b.
mining of uranium
c.
storage of radioactive waste
d.
monitoring the reactor

The correct answer is option B

The mining of uranium is harmful for both air and water. Uranium is a radioactive compound that is extracted by mining.

Uranium ore emits the gas named radon. The health effects of exposure to radon have particular problems. Significant rate of lungs cancer was observed during the 1940s and 1950s.

Water is used in the heap leaching of the uranium mining. The water can get mixed into the normal supply of water and harm the health of people.

answer: - few nutrients

high pressure

low temperatures

explanation: 1. few nutrients:   open-ocean zone is located way far from the land, which is the main source of the essential nutrients.2. high pressure: pressure increases by 1 atmosphere for every 10 meters increase in depth.3. ample sunlight: a large fraction of the sunlight is reflected back to the atmosphere from the sea surface. 4. varying salinity: below the thermocline, the water is isolated from the atmosphere so the salinity remains stable over the year.5. low temperatures:   the temperature of open-ocean zone ranges from a low of -2°c to an average of 17°c
