The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the pairs are correctly matched, we will analyze each option: 1. **Fossil Fuel Burning - CO Release**: - When fossil fuels (like coal, oil, and natural gas) are burned, they primarily release carbon dioxide (CO₂) and other gases. While carbon monoxide (CO) can also be produced, it is not the primary gas associated with fossil fuel combustion. Therefore, this pair is **not correctly matched**. 2. **Nuclear Plant - Radioactive Wastes**: - Nuclear power plants generate energy through nuclear fission, which indeed produces radioactive waste as a byproduct. This pair is **correctly matched**. 3. **CO₂ - Greenhouse Effect**: - Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is a significant greenhouse gas that contributes to the greenhouse effect, trapping heat in the atmosphere and leading to global warming. This pair is **correctly matched**. 4. **Montreal Protocol - Control Ozone Depletion**: - The Montreal Protocol is an international treaty designed to phase out substances that deplete the ozone layer. This pair is **correctly matched**. Now, summarizing the correctness of each pair: - A: Not Correct - B: Correct - C: Correct - D: Correct Thus, the pairs that are correctly matched are B, C, and D. ### Final Answer: The correctly matched pairs are: - B. Nuclear plant - Radioactive wastes - C. CO₂ - Greenhouse effect - D. Montreal protocol - Control ozone depletion
