Suggested summary:
Snowflakes are all six-pointed and each one is different. The formation of
snowflakes in winter storm clouds is a complex process. Each snowflake
forms around a piece of dust, is blown by the wind, and collects layers of
frozen water. Some drops fall off and form new flakes. Every change in
temperature and humidity causes a change in the snowflake’s formation.

1. The supply of fossil fuels is limited.
2. Ithas a transparent metallic film at the top. Below this is a layer of
silicon. A metal base is at the bottom.
3. Silicon and the sun's energy are limitless, the cells produce clean
energy, and these cells will be cheaper than burning fossil fuels.
4. at the boundary between the two semi-conductors — the silicon and the
metal base
5. no moving parts
6, It doesn’t work as efficiently.
7. The chemical preparation of silicon for use in photovoltaic cells was
very expensive.
8. They will be able to produce cheap energy from sunlight and most
developing countries are in the tropics with a lot of sunlight.
9, Suggested answer: They use the sun’s energy. ‘There is no other source
of energy in space; satellites cannot carry enough gasoline for the long
distances they travel.
