Concentrated animal feeding operations that raise hundreds of animals in a single location often use manure lagoons to dispose o

f the manure. manure lagoons are ponds lined with rubber to prevent the manure from leaking into groundwater or nearby waterways. one pig produces 30 liters of manure each day, and the average feedlot holds 900 pigs. calculate the amount of manure produced by the feedlot after 30 days to determine the minimum capacity needed for a manure lagoon. a faulty manure pond leaks into a nearby lake. describe one effect this leak would have on the organisms living in the lake.

If there is a leakage of the manure pond into the near by river, the growth the nitrates and phosphates in the leak causes an overgrowth of algae leading to eutrophication.

<h3>What is a manure?</h3>

A manure is that which is used to improve the fertility of the soil. It is composed of the nutrients that are required by the soil. We know that each pig produces 30 liters of manure each day, and the average feedlot holds 900 pigs. Hence, each day, 30 * 900 = 27000 litres of manure is produced.

Within a period of 30 days, a total of 27000 litres of manure * 30 = 810,000 litres of manure is produced. If there is a leakage of the manure pond into the near by river, the growth the nitrates and phosphates in the leak causes an overgrowth of algae leading to eutrophication.

Si todas las células del organismo reaccionaran cómo lo hacen las del higado, se esperaría que ?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Si todas las células reaccionaran como el hígado, cada una tendría la capacidad de producir proteínas, colesterol, almacenamiento y liberación de glucosa, procesaría la producción de hemoglobina y amoníaco en la urea, purificaría las drogas y los desechos, regularía la coagulación, produciría los factores necesarios en la respuesta inmune e intervendría en la formación de bilirrubina, principalmente, sin embargo, debe tenerse en cuenta que una de las funciones principales es el suministro de energía, si cada célula tuviera reservas de glucosa por momentos de estrés, rápida regeneración celular ante las lesiones, las células no tendrían la capacidad de tener una adaptación específica de sus funciones y los procesos que son básicos para el funcionamiento humano serían destruidos, como un eritrocito cuya función es el transporte de oxígeno, no lo haría ser viable si se dedica a producir glucosa porque su estructura debería adaptarse a otra y sin oxígeno el cuerpo no vive, por lo que sería caótico que los sistemas sí no tienen una adaptación específica y son las mismas, aunque las reacciones hepáticas son vitales, requiere el apoyo de otros órganos con diferentes funciones para que estas tengan lugar, es de resaltar que el hígado tiene una respuesta rápida y efectiva ante el estrés, busca recursos para poder mantener funcionando muchos sistemas, si las células se adaptarán con la misma rapidez, se evitaría la aparición de muchas enfermedades.
