Biology

Nataly [62]3 years ago

It's basically a wave that moves back and forth at regular speed through matter. because of that it transfers energy through a medium (matter). however the movement of the wave is limited because of this but it can still move over long distances. so because of this these types of waves don't move far from their original point or Equilibrium position. in short think of throwing a pebble into water and seeing the little ripples from it, that's a mechanical wave.

Answer:

(3) could be mistaken for food by some species, working their way up the food chain

Explanation:

Microbeads, such as other microplastics, can affect wildlife in many ways, but mostly by

  • Ingestion
  • Introduction and transference in the trophic web
  • Interaction with other contaminants
  • Microinvertebrates, bacteria, and viruses colonize these microplastics and can be transported long distances.

Organisms like mollusks, crustaceans, fishes, birds, turtles, among many others, might confuse these elements with food and eat them. Microbeads might float or accumulate in sediments and be ingested by different benthonic species. The ingestion of microbeads by inferior links in the trophic web means a direct entrance in the trophic web where many superior links are affected too while feeding with already contaminated prey.

The ingestion of microbeads can cause a significant impact on the growth, development, and reproduction of freshwater and seawater species.  

Microbeads, like other microplastics, characterize for their durability in time and resistance, which means that the ones that are already in the oceans and rivers will last there for centuries.

a reduction of lot sizes increases the amount of fluctuation that can accumulate between any pair of stages of a supply chain, t
Liono4ka [1.6K]

False. A reduction in lot sizes does not enhance the amount of variation that can build up between any two supply chain stages, hence enhancing the bullwhip effect.

According to the bullwhip effect, which is a characteristic of the suppliers chain, modest changes in demand at the retail level can lead to steadily increasing changes at the wholesale, distributor, manufacturer, and raw material supplier levels. The physics of cracking a whip are referenced in the effect's name. The comparatively tiny movement of the whip's wave patterns increasing in size as a result of the person holding it snapping their wrist. In supply chain management, salespeople, manufacturers, suppliers, and customers all have a partial understanding of demand and limited direct control over it.
