“polluting” daily activity. Sources of Auto Emissions The power to move a car comes from burning fuel in an engine. Pollution from cars comes from by-products of this combustion process (exhaust) and from evaporation of the fuel itself. • Evaporative Emissions • Refueling Losses • Exhaust Emissions The Combustion Process Gasoline and diesel fuels are mixtures of hydrocarbons‚ compounds which contain hydrogen and carbon atoms. In a “perfect” engine‚ oxygen in the air would convert all

How Marsupials adapt to the arid Australian Environment Introduction The increasing aridity of the Australian continent over the past 20 million years has favoured organisms that could adapt to dry conditions. Marsupials have developed a variety of behavioural‚ physiological and morphological adaptations to survive in these arid conditions with little or no food and free water for extended periods of time. Marsupials living in Australia’s hot arid environment must deal with exposure

from the vegetation and soil. Thus‚ while there is a net solar energy gain‚ this is compensated to some degree by evaporative cooling. In cities with less vegetation‚ urban structures like buildings and sidewalks absorb most of the solar energy input. As cities have drainage systems like gutters‚ less surface water remain on the impervious pavements resulting in less evaporation cooling‚ contributing to higher air temperatures. The lack of expenditure of latent heat (heat used for evaporation) means
