Answer:

Safe Drinking Water Act

Explanation:

These are the two laws that were passed to prevent or decrease water pollution. The Safe Drinking Water Act is the main federal law in the United States that ensures safe drinking water for the public. This law applies to every public water system in the United States (over 151,000). This act, however, does not cover private wells or bottled water.

This is the primary federal law in the United States governing water pollution.  Passed in 1972 the act established the goals of eliminating releases of high amounts of toxic substances into water, eliminating additional water pollution by 1985, and that surface waters would meet standards necessary for human sports and recreation by 1983.

Most of the nucleated cells in a multicellular organism contain all of the genetic information for the organism. Which of the fo
vova2212 [387]

<u>Answer</u>: Sperm cell

<u>Explanation</u>:

Amongst all the 4 options given, only the Sperm cell is a gamete (sex cell) while all the three are somatic cells.

  • A <em>somatic</em> cell is the one which forms the body of an organism and contains all the genetic information.
  • A <em>gamete</em> is the one which is required for the purpose of fertilization. A gamete of male fuses with the gamete of female in a process called fertilization to form a zygote to give rise to a new individual.
  • A Sperm cell is basically a <em>male gamete.</em> It contains only half the amount of genetic information as the other half is contributed by the female gamete.
  • This difference in the amount of genetic information arises due to the type of cell division that occurs. The somatic cells undergo mitosis whereas a gamete requires meiosis to occur for its formation.
  • During mitosis there is a single round of cell division which divides the parent cell into two daughter cells each with the <em>complete genetic information</em>.
  • During meiosis the cell undergoes two rounds of cell division such that a total lf 4 cells are produced each <em>with half the amount of genetic material </em>as present in the parent cell.

Since, <em>sperm is a male gamete and is formed by meiosis it contains only half the genetic information as compared to the other cells.</em>
