Ocean acidification __methane
Conclusion
While methane may be broken down into a less harmful form, when methane is oxidized the problem doesn't simply go away. Methane oxidizes into carbon dioxide both in seawater and in the atmosphere, adding to the carbon dioxide levels in both these realms. As we have seen, carbon dioxide in seawater contributes to ocean acidity, while atmospheric carbon dioxide traps heat and promotes warming – though not quite to the extent that methane would – and as atmospheric CO2 levels rise, so too will the CO2 that is absorbed into the ocean. It is a classic feedback loop that feeds into itself, having the potential to accelerate global warming and climate change to a tipping point – the point of no return.

Ocean acidification __methane
Conclusion
While methane may be broken down into a less harmful form, when methane is oxidized the problem doesn't simply go away. Methane oxidizes into carbon dioxide both in seawater and in the atmosphere, adding to the carbon dioxide levels in both these realms. As we have seen, carbon dioxide in seawater contributes to ocean acidity, while atmospheric carbon dioxide traps heat and promotes warming – though not quite to the extent that methane would – and as atmospheric CO2 levels rise, so too will the CO2 that is absorbed into the ocean. It is a classic feedback loop that feeds into itself, having the potential to accelerate global warming and climate change to a tipping point – the point of no return.

This is the Passage for this question
1. Suppy and Demand
The law of demand in economic terms is defined as a downward sloping curve on a graph where price is the y-axis and quantity is the x-axis. What we're going to see is as price goes down, quantity sold increases. So, as a product becomes more available at a lower price, people will tend to want to buy more of it, and therefore, the quantity demanded will go up.
The law of supply, on the other hand, is the opposite story. As the price increases, more producers will want to get into the market, which will affect how much product will be available in the market, because more people are coming in and trying to make a profit on the current price. As price goes lower, the law of supply says that the quantity will also go down.
1a. Market Price and Equilibrium
Market price
is the current price of a good or service at which a customer is willing to pay. Let's put our supply and demand curves together on a graph, and set the market price at the point marked with the dot. This will represent, given the current situation, what a customer is willing to pay.
hint Keep in mind that these things are always in flux, so you'll never see them static, like they're represented here. This is just for the sake of demonstration.
Equilibrium price
is the price at which quantity demanded and quantity supplied will meet. Recall where we set our market price, the price at which a customer is willing to pay given the supply of a particular product. What's going to happen is that the lines will move around until equilibrium is met, as shown below.
This is the price, given the supply and demand curves, where price will be at an equilibrium, all other things being equal.
terms to know
Market Price The current price of a good or service which a customer is willing to pay Equilibrium Price The price at which quantity demanded and quantity supplied meet
1b. Surplus and Shortage
Surplus
is when there's more supply of a product than demand.
Shortage
is when there's more demand for a product than there is supply.
This is going to affect the price, obviously. Surpluses will mean lower prices, while shortages mean higher prices.
The size of a business is going to have an effect on how they can cope with surpluses and shortages. Larger organizations have more flex--more money--available, and they're able to look for more substitutions for a product than a smal.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.

Which of the following refers to fossils of early multicellular invertebrates that are 565 to 620 million years old? Choose one: A. Rodinia B. stromatolites C. cyanobacteria D. Ediacaran fauna
- 2. Banded iron formations (BIFs) formed Choose one: A. beneath the Laurentide ice sheet. B. in the Proterozoic deep ocean. C. in alluvial fans at the base of the proto-Appalachian Mountains. D. during uplift of the Tibetan Plateau. Geologists believe that the impact of a 13-km-wide meteorite 65 million years ago Choose one: A. generated 20-km-high tsunamis. B. generated a hot-air blast and blaze that caused worldwide forest fires. C. ejected debris into the atmosphere that produced acid rain. D. ejected chemicals into the atmosphere that caused thousands of years of winter-like night conditions that halted photosynthesis. The continents that made up Pangaea came together in the early Paleozoic but began to split apart during the Choose one: A. late Paleozoic. B. Late Triassic/Early Jurassic. C. middle Proterozoic. D. Early Devonian. We know that the atmosphere became more oxygen-rich around 1.8 billion years ago (Ga) because of geologic evidence such as
- 3. Choose one: A. BIFs that occurred prior to 1.8 Ga but disappeared from the rock record after that time. B. abundant fossils of land plants, signifying the start of photosynthesis. C. redbeds that formed after 1.8 Ga. D. the presence of abundant pyrite after 1.8 Ga.

Sand, covered by limestone and then shale, represents a sea- level rise. D. Each sequence represents two cycles of sea-level rise and fall. Solar storms, like the one in the video, may have caused a dramatic increase in nitrous oxide in Earth's early atmosphere, allowing it to warm enough to support life. What is the earliest life form found in the fossil record? Choose one: A. trilobites B. cells from an unknown organism C. cyanobacteria D. stromatolites
