Exposure to Chlorine would most likely result in immediate respiratory distress.

Elevated concentrations of chlorine exposure result in pulmonary congestion, a condition marked by fluid accumulation in the lungs.

The toxic effects of chlorine are primarily caused by the reaction of elemental chlorine (Cl2) with water, which results in the production of hypochlorous and hydrochloric acid. The subsequent reaction between these two acids creates oxygen free radicals.

Chlorine gas is a hazardous material that could be used in industrial accidents or as a weapon by terrorists. This review will discuss pre-hospital considerations, summarise recent incidents involving chlorine catastrophic events and its use by terrorists, and offer strategies for the preliminary management of acute chlorine exposure events.

What is the theory of natural selection, and why does it occur in an organism? Give an example.
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

It occurs in organisms because an organism with a beneficial trait/mutation have a higher chnace of surviving compared to organisms that do not. So the organsims that do survive pass on their genes to the next generation, and the bext generation will pass on those genes to the generation after and so on. But all the organisms that do not possess a beneficial trait/mutations will not survive, therefore they cannot reproduce and pass on those genes to their offspring. This means that most of the population will posses that trait/mutation.

Example: Spotted moths camouflage with bark so they are seen by predators and eaten. Black moths are easily seen by predators and are eaten. Spotted moths then pass on their genes to the next generation of moths.

Lera25 [3.4K]
Since the means of reproduction have changed, the population of peacocks would probably start losing their pretty feather colors due to the fact that over time females would be mating with the containing the other trait (and possibly not the pretty feathers). This would then produce offspring with ugly colors but also with the desired trait. This would continue on and on until those with the desired trait outnumbered or possibly extinguished the now unnecessary vibrant feather colors.
