Biologists report that habitat destruction, and overexploitation. and pollution is eliminating species at a rate comparable to the great extinction that marked the end of the age of dinosaurs. The UN Environment Programme reports that. over the past century, more than 800 species have disappeared and at least 10,000 species are now considered threatened This Includes abou1 half of all primates and around 10 per cent or all plant species. At least half of the forests existing before the introduction of agriculture have been cleared. and much of the diverse "old growth" on which many species depend for habitat is rapidly being cut and replaced by ecologically impoverished forest plantations.

Clean technology has helped eliminate pollution and protect endangered species.

Natural resources are limited, and the biosphere has limited capacity to provide our food and water.

27.

Halley's Comet orbits the Sun and can be seen from Earth about every 76 years. However,before the work of Sir Isaac Newton and Edmond Halley, comets were thought to pass in a straight line through the solar system. In 1705. Edmond Halley used Newton's laws to determine the gravitational effects of Jupiter and Saturn on a comet that he observed in 1682. Using this information and historical records, he determined that comets seen in 1531 and 1607 were the same comet. Halley correctly calculated the orbit of the comet and predicted its return in 1758. Newton's laws state that all objects exert gravitationa l force and that objects with more mass exert more force. Which system of objects has the g·eatest effect on the orbit of Halley's comet?

a)

Earth, the Sun, and the Moon

b)

the Sun, Jupiter, and Saturn
