Answer:

Impairment of photosynthesis

Explanation:

The major effect of oil spilage is that it impairs or hampers photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis is the process where green plants manufactures their own food in the presence of sunlight and water.

Water is denser than oil. Therefore, oil floats on the surface of water. Oil on water surface acts as a blanket to sheild plants away from receiving direct sunlight. Sunlight is very important during photosynthesis.

In the absence of sunlight, plants are unable to manufacture their food.

They are also unable to receive carbon dioxide from the environment.

All non-harmful environmental agents that a pregnant woman ingests aid in the development of the fetus.
vitfil [10]

Answer: False

Explanation:

Just because an environmental agent is not harmful does not mean that it is beneficial therefore not all non-harmful environmental agents that a pregnant woman ingests aid in the development of the fetus.

This is where the Placenta comes in. It filters out the agents and nutrients that are not needed and passes only the relevant ones to the fetus thereby ensuring that not all non-harmful agents pass through.
