The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of which pair is mismatched, we will analyze each option provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze Option F: Fossil Fuel Burning - Release of Carbon Dioxide** - When fossil fuels (like coal, oil, and natural gas) are burned, they react with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide (CO2) as a by-product. - **Conclusion**: This pair is correctly matched. 2. **Analyze Option G: Nuclear Power - Radioactive Waste** - Nuclear power generation involves the fission of uranium or other radioactive materials, which produces energy and also generates radioactive waste as a by-product. - **Conclusion**: This pair is correctly matched. 3. **Analyze Option H: Solar Energy - Greenhouse Effect** - Solar energy harnesses sunlight to generate power, and it does not produce greenhouse gases during its operation. In fact, it helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions by providing a clean energy source. - **Conclusion**: This pair is incorrectly matched. Solar energy does not contribute to the greenhouse effect; it actually helps mitigate it. 4. **Analyze Option I: Biomass Burning - Release of Carbon Dioxide** - When biomass (organic material) is burned, it releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, similar to fossil fuels. - **Conclusion**: This pair is correctly matched. ### Final Answer: The mismatched pair is **Option H: Solar Energy - Greenhouse Effect**. ---
