Urban areas are crowded places with many apartments, offices, restaurants, parking lots and shopping centers. Comparing the amount of dirt, wastages and pollutants that are released into streams and lakes by each of these sources, we can conclude that the construction of a shopping mall or parking lot contributes a lot to the addition of the wastage into the streams and lakes

A shopping mall and parking lot in itself occupies a lot of space hindering the air balance and also increasing the traffic in the area and the adjacent areas leading to this area. On the other hand , this construction accommodates hundreds of shops that discards bulks of packaging materials in the form of plastic covers, fabric, card boards and other wastages which will have to be dumped every day.

Apart from this, urban areas have major part of the land covered with roofs and roads thus making all the rain water flow into the sewer and drainages washing out chemical wastes, pet wastes and other garbages into the streams and lakes.

<span>The paralysis is from a chain reaction of cells not processing sodium properly. This leads to their residing in a resting potential instead of forming action potentials, as is required for them to fire during muscle movements. The electrical impulses are not moving down the cells, leading to their not being able to move and, therefore, paralysis of the affected or poisoned areas.</span>

anygoal [31]

Mendel concluded that pea traits like flower color were determined by separate units. From the results, Mendel proved that all traits do not blend. For instance, purple flowers mixed with white flowers did not produce pink flowers.

Since all of the offspring have the purple phenotype, this tells us that the purple allele is dominant to the white allele. ... This means that 75% of the offspring displayed the dominant phenotype of purple flowers, and 25% displayed the recessive phenotype of white flowers.

Two pea plants, both heterozygous for flower color, are crossed. The offspring will show the dominant purple coloration in a 3:1 ratio. Or, about 75% of the offspring will be purple.

Mendel's Results

Mendel noted the ratio of white flowered plants to purple-flowered plants was about 3:1. That is, for every three purple-flowered plants, there was one white flowered plant.
