Which of these are the two major sources of nitrate pollution in rivers?
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is <em>c. animal wastes and fertilizers. </em>

Explanation:

Two major sources of nitrate pollution are farming and breeding activities. There are also certain industrial activities involved in nitrate pollution, but in general, these industries are related to agriculture.

The indiscriminate use of fertilizers for several years in intensive productions produce high nitrate concentration in soil and consequently elevate the risk of nitrate lixiviation.

Breeding animals produce nitrate pollution by their wastes, which accumulate and are not treated. These wastes include flesh, hair, feathers, skin, fat, liquids, excrements, among others. These wastes are an important source of nitrate.

In many cases, animal wastes are used by farmers as organic matter to improve their production. But excessive and incorrect use of it might produce severe damage in water sources.

Not all enzymes work inside cells in the body
Evgen [1.6K]


Enzymes can be divided into two groups, intracellular and extracellular enzymes.

Enzymes formed and retained in the cell are known as intracellular enzymes. They are found in the cytoplasm, organelles  and the nucleus of the cell. Examples of such enzymes are DNA polymerase, RNA polymerase and ATP synthetase.

Extracellular enzymes are produced in the cell then packed and secreted from the cell.  This kind of enzymes catalyze reactions outside the cell. Most digestive enzymes are extracellular enzymes . Examples of such are amylase, zymase and cellulase
