The tobacco smoke from cigarette smoking contains harmful chemicals such as hydrogen cyanide, arsenic, ammonia, benzene, and many more.

Explain how an oil spill devastates marine life when animals get covered by the toxic sludge.
vekshin1
Oil sticks to birds preventing them from flying. Whales and dolphins and other creatures that use blow holes can get oil into their respiratory system, making it difficult to breathe. Animals can also ingest the oil. This can be fatal and/or deadly in the short or long term.

Nelly was reading about ecological pesticides. She found a website that said that skeletons of some organisms settle as sediment
Mnenie [13.5K]

The answer is B. When diatoms die and fall off the ocean column to the ocean floor, they become part of sediments over time. When they are mined and exposed, they turn to a diatomite. Diatomaceous earth is significant as a pest repellant because of its hygroscopic property and has very abrasive particle hence it absorbs the water-protective fats and oils from the outermost layer of insects.
