What are three ways a synthetic polymers affect the environment
nadezda [96]
There are two types of polymers, which are natural and synthetic. Although natural polymers do not affect the environment, synthetic polymers do.Synthetic polymers are anything that is manufactured or influenced by humans. Due to this, these types of polymers release reactants which are hazardous; both to humans and the environment.Synthetic polymers, which include plastics, rubber, How do polymers effect the environment?adhesives, and Styrofoam cannot be degraded into the environment, causing a buildup of these chemicals all at once, causing a release of any "excess" chemicals into the environment.From there on, polymers create garbage loads, and chemical reactants that effect the environment, and spread around. Therefore effecting anything grown or eaten around it. This could call chemical poisoning to the greenery, animals, and living organisms around it. Not all polymers are bad. In fact humans are made up of polymers. But polymers from sources such as crude oil synthesized into plastics release toxins as they break down. When you burn plastics synthesized from crude oil feedstock, carbon dioxide and dioxins can be released into the air if smoke is not properly <span>What are the bad effects of polymers on your environment?filtered as they are in high quality waste-to-energy incinerators.

Therefore plastics are banned in some areas.

How is it possible that the F2 generation offspring had some short plants when the F1 generation had no short plants on Mendel's
sattari [20]
The f1 generation may have genes for short plants just that the genes for long plants are dominant over the genes for short plants(recessive) so when cross pollination happen and that two f1 long plants which are homozygous cross pollinate, the recessive genes have a chance of being paired up in new offspring(F2 offspring) thus the possiblity of short plants in f2 generation
