When oil spilled from the Exxon Valdez oil tanker in 1989 into Alaska's pristine waters, animals and birds felt the immediate ef
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Oil immediately interferes with physical properties of feathers, hair and respiration, making it impossible for many animals to function properly.

Explanation:

For example, birds such as seabirds and bald eagles have to dive or get in the water at least partially in order to catch the fish they eat. Oil makes it impossible for these birds to locate their prey and when they get in contact with oil it makes it impossible for them to fly and be insulated against the cold. Otters and seals also lose insulation against cold water when their hair gets covered with oil and die of hypothermia. Orcas suffer from skin and eye irritation when they get in contact with oil and it may cause problems if it gets swallowed.

How long does it normally take to process one 12-ounce beer from your system?
Darina [25.2K]

Once the alcohol goes into our system, an ounce of it is process for a period of one hour.

The first stop happens in the stomach where absorption through the gastric lining and bloodstream occurs. Stronger drinks are absorbed more quickly. The second stop happens in the brain where its function decreases/ is increasingly impaired as the BAC or blood alcohol content grows. The third stop will be in the heart. However, it should be noted that it does not receive any physical alcohol, but its effects on the heart are strong. Alcohol is a vasodilator which means it causes blood vessels to dilate. This indicates more blood flow through the body-- but lowers the overall blood pressure. The fourth stop will be in the kidneys where blood is filtered. The fifth stop will be in the bladder where it will excreted from the body. Lastly, the liver is where the rest of alcohol left in your system is broken down. This process is known as metabolizing. The chemical that remains after metabolization is acetaldehyde and the body gets rid it by further metabolizing it into carbon dioxide and water.

Therefore, an ounce of alcohol is processed in our body for 60 minutes or one hour.
