Which of the following is a consequence of acid deposition? Group of answer choices A) It increases the likelihood of low-lying
ground fogs. B) It results in offshore eutrophication, damaging coral reefs. C) It creates rainwater that can damage skin cells or cause cancers. D) It leaches important minerals from soils. E) It is increasing the rate of global warming.
Acid deposition is the process by which the acid formed in the atmosphere falls off with the rain and gets deposited in the lithosphere.
The deposition of the acid in the soil causes many adverse effects on the living organisms especially plants as deposition of acid leads to the reactions which result in the release of the elements from their compounds via a process known as "leaching".
The leaching of the elements leads to the decrease in the fertility of the soil and thus productivity of the plants or crops.
The acid rain is usually defined as a type of precipitation which is comprised of acids such as sulfuric and nitric acids and is harmful to the living organism.
It directly affects the soil because the nutrient particles present in the soil such as phosphorus, nitrogen, and aluminum are washed away during acid rain. The acid rain adds the hydrogen ions to the soil and reacts with the nutrients present in the soil and thereby removes it and it eventually flows to the streams and rivers. This process of eroding soil particles is often known as leaching.
Thus, Acid rain leads to the leaching of important soil minerals.
Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that this tissue would most likely come from tissue that separates skin from underlying muscle. Also known as the superficial fascia, this is the main coating beneath the skin that is mainly made up of different amount of fat, which also surrounds the bodies organs.
