The given statement is example of the bioaccumulation.

What is phytoplanktons?

Phytoplankton, a flora of freely floating, often minute organisms that drift with water currents.

Bioaccumulation is the accumulation of contaminants by species in concentrations that are orders of magnitude higher than in the surrounding environment.

Contuining contamination of chemical leads to bioaccumulation in phytoplanktons population.

What is the Bronsted acid of H2PO4- + OH-. ---- HPO42- + H2O?​
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The bronsted- Lowry acid is H₂PO₄⁻

Explanation:

Bronsted-Lowry acid  donates a proton (H⁺)

H₂PO₄⁻ + OH⁻ → HPO₄²⁻ + H₂O

In the reaction above, H₂PO₄⁻ is donating the proton to OH⁻ resulting in H₂O and the deprotonated species. This makes it a bronsted-Lowry acid.

A mixture of two miscible liquids with a widely different boiling point is distilled. The temperature of distilled liquid is obs
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

The difference in temperature is significant means that the lower-boiling liquid finishes distilling at a temperature that is too low for the higher-boiling liquid to be in vapor form yet.

Explanation:

The temperature will rise as the vapor of lower-boiling liquid rushes into the distillation head. However once the lower-boiling liquid is done distilling, there is a temperature drop because while the lower temperature liquid is done distilling, the temperature is still too low for the higher-boiling liquid to be rushing in as a vapour, so the temperature drops.

What is the role if mutations in genetic variation and the diversity of living things? Use human inheritance examples as evidenc
aliya0001 [1]

Explanation:

Mutations on DNA create genetic variation and diversity on which natural selection acts upon. Mutation can be advantageous, disadvantageous or neutral. Those mutations that confer advantage are preserved in the population while those that are DISadvantageous are weeded out. This occurs because advantageous traits that give a particular advantage to individuals in the environment, however slightest, give them an increased chance of survival and passing their genes to subsequent generations.

An example is mutation that causes sickle cell-shaped blood cells. Individuals with sickle cell blood are less likely to contract malaria. Therefore in an environment where malaria is endemic, the population will have a higher allele frequency for sickle cell alleles that populations in non-endemic areas.
