Give two reasons why Australia has higher rates of skin cancer compared to Brazil.

There is something different about the sunlight over Australia, there is something different about the people's skin in Australia

500

What is a scientific model and how is it used in the study of energy?

A scientific model is a simplified representation of something that helps us understand it better, like how energy transforms.
