Comparing the four most common types of power plants in Alberta (coal, natural

gas, wind, and hydroelectric), which has the lowest efficiency in electricity

generation? and why?

Coal.

Explanation:

Steam power plant has the lowest efficiency in electricity production which can only be run with the use of fossil fuels such as coal. The efficiency of this power plant is the lowest because large amount of coal is converted into smoke and other gases and very less amount of coal into heat energy. This coal is used to produce heat energy which can be used in the heating of water to produce steam. This steam is used to move turbines which turn mechanical energy into electric energy.

producers: apple trees, potatoes, carrots, grains, acorns, cabbage, grass, corn, lettuce

consumers: deer, mice, rabbits, chickens, squirrels, horses, worms, cows

predators: eagles, frogs, wolves, owls

ans.

dna fingerprinting is defined as a process that determines the dna characteristics of an individual. these dna characteristics are unique among individuals as their fingerprints, so it is known as dna fingerprinting.

steps of dna fingerprinting includes extraction of dna from sample, amplification of dna, restriction digestion of amplified dna, and then analysis of dna by gel electrophoresis, respectively.

thus, the next step performed by the scientist is 'to cut the amplified dna (obtained by polymerase chain reaction) by restriction enzymes that cleave the dna into fragments and their analysis.'
