<span>Chromated copper arsenate, or CCA, is a pesticide that has been used for years in
pressure-treating lumber to prevent destruction from rot and insects. Arsenic, a toxic
chemical, can leach from this treated wood, leaving residues on the wood’s surface and in
nearby soil. Young children who play on or near decks or playscapes made from CCA-
treated wood can get arsenic on their skin and into their bodies, especially if they eat or
drink without washing their hands.
Because of the health risks of long-term exposure to arsenic, the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) has announced that as of December 31, 2003, arsenic Currently the EPA does not recommend that people remove existing structures made with CCA-treated wood or the soil surrounding those structures. However, they do recommend that people reduce their potential exposure to arsenic.</span>
Answer:
D. Population genetics
Population genetics is the study of genetic variation within populations, and involves the examination and modelling of changes in the frequencies of genes and alleles in populations over space and time. ... In natural populations, however, the genetic composition of a population's gene pool may change over time.
Explanation:
microevolution - evolutionary change within a species or small group of organisms, especially over a short period. (Not studying the overall evolution in the population, just a single allele usually) Not it then
macroevolution - Macroevolution in the modern sense is evolution that is guided by selection among interspecific variation, as opposed to selection among intraspecific variation in microevolution (this goes over huge groups of different species) Not it then
gene pool - The gene pool is the set of all genes, or genetic information, in any population, usually of a particular species. (Not the study of evolution in a population) Not that then
So it has to be D
Osmosis. If the cell has too much salt the cells will swell. let me know if you want me to explain.
