Lakes that have been acidified cannot support the same variety of life as healthy lakes. As a lake becomes more acidic, crayfish and clam populations are the first to disappear, then various types of fish. Many types of plankton-minute organisms that form the basis of the lake's food chain-are also affected. As fish stocks dwindle, so do populations of loons and other water birds that feed on them. The lakes, however, do not become totally dead. Some life forms actually benefit from the increased acidity. Lake-bottom plants and mosses, for instance, thrive in acid lakes. So do blackfly larvae.

Answer:
- <u>Conventional plastics-</u>
"Plastics are typically organic polymers of high molecular mass, but they often contain other substances."
"Oil-based polymers is currently used in packaging applications. These are virtually all non-biodegradable, and some are difficult to recycle or reuse due to being complex composites having varying levels of contamination.
- <u>Biodegradable plastics</u>-
"They are largely manufactured from renewable natural resources, to produce biodegradable materials with similar functionality to that of oil-based polymers."
Explanation:
<u>Complex Issue-</u>
- Diversity of biodegradable materials and their varying properties makes it difficult to make simple, generic assessments such as biodegradable products are all ‘good’ or petrochemical-based products are all ‘bad’.
- Biodegradable packaging materials are most suitable for single-use disposable applications where the post-consumer waste can be locally composted.
The corect answer is: B. Intercalated disks.
