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.

1. Lung capacity is basically how much air (in volumes) your lungs can hold.

2. I think that a swimmer would be able to have the biggest lung capacity because when swimming, you are mostly underwater with no air, so being able to hold as much air in as you can when you come up to take a breathe will help improve how well you do.

Why do you think mutations are necessary for<br> species to change?
Artist 52 [7]
Mutation is the primary cause of all genetic variation. Mutation is important as the first step in evolution, as it produces a new sequence of DNA for a particular gene, producing a new allele. Recombination, through intragenic recombination, may also generate a new DNA sequence (a new allele) for a particular gene.
