• PHREATIC

• STAMBOLIAN

• VOLCANO

Answer explanation

Geothermal resources are reservoirs of hot water that exist or are human made at varying temperatures and depths below the earth's surface.

a geothermal power plant's primary components are as follows, EXCEPT:

• compressor

• cooling tower

• generator

• turbine

the steam used in this kind of geothermal power plant is obtained by drilling right into the subterranean source is called

• binary power plants

• dry steam power plants

• flash steam power plants

• geothermal heat pump

why the climate is warmer in a country near the equator than those in the north or south pole?

• air above the equator is thicker

• regiosn near the equator have longer days

• regions near the euator receive the rays of the sun

• sunlight is converted into heat faster near the equator

a geothermal power plants and geothermal heat mpump differ in the __________ of the heat source to produce energy.

• areas

• depth

• size

• width

what two components are most frequently utilized to define climate?

• temperature and precipitation

• precipitation and density

• temperature and density

• winds and humidity

what would happen to the climate if we stop burning fossil fuels today?

• earth's average temperature would continue to rise

• temperature would fluctuate but stay the same on average

• temperatures would continue to warm and begin to cool down in 100 years or more

• temperatures would stop increasing once greenshouse gas concentration stopped increasing

city A is surrounded by bodies of water and has a moderate climate. it is located near the equator. wHAT WILL most likely affect the climate of the city?

• all of these

• latitude

• topography

• altitude

why do places have the same latitude but different altitudes have different climate?

• amount of heat received varies

• amount of precipitation differs

• highers altitudes have lower temperatures

• higher altitudes have higher temperatur
