Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Precipitation indirectly decrease the salt concentration as the water which is precipitated is taken from any water body in fresh form (i.e without any salt)  through evaporation. Hence addition of fresh water into any saline water body decreases its salinity

Like wise run off brings in also reduces salinity as it brings in water from different directions to dump it into a saline water body thereby increasing the water volume and hence reducing the salinity

Formation of sea ice leaves behind dissolved salt in water with  concentration and hence the salinity of water increases.

Melting of ice do not increase the salt concentration as frozen water is fresh water and as it melts it reduces the salinity of a saline water body.

Option C, formation of sea ice

Shtirlitz [24]

The correct answer is predatory birds.  

The flowing of toxic chemicals and heavy metals into the water body when the agricultural, industrial, and human wastes run off or are discharged intentionally into the water body is known as biomagnification. These pollutants result in genetic mutations, disease, reproductive difficulties, birth defects, death, and behavioral modifications in various marine species.  

However, the extremity of the destruction varies significantly among the species. In various circumstances, the animals close to the top of the food chain are most influenced by the procedure of biomagnification.  

Several of the harmful toxins get settle at the lower level in a water body and are then consumed by the species, which feed or live on the bottom dwellers. As these constituents are not digested, they gathered inside the bodies of the species, which consumes them.  

It signifies that the higher level predators, like fish, birds, or marine mammals accumulate more harmful concentrations of toxic substances in comparison to the animals lower on the food chain. Thus, in the given case, the more concentrated amount of toxins would be found in the predatory birds.

Embryonic stem cells are cells derived from an embryo. These cells can be used to create new tissues for patients suffering from
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Option A, Some people consider embryos to possess rights equal to those of fully developed human beings.

Explanation:

When stem cells are derived from embryo, the embryo dies in lieu to end of its cell development and this happens because stem cells are the only cells that have potential to develop an embryo by producing more stem cells and differentiating them into specific organs.

In most of the study, embryonic stem cells are derived from embryos that are obtained from IVF technique as an spare embryo. But this act is considered unethical as embryos have life within them and hence they also have rights equal to a fully developed human being.

Hence, option A is correct.

<h3>What is Genotype ?</h3>

An organism's genotype is made up of all of its genetic components. The alleles or variations that an individual carries in a specific gene or genetic region are also referred to as the genotype.

Blood Genotype: What is it? A blood genotype reveals the complete genetic composition of a person's blood. There are typically five (5) unique blood genotype types. These letters are AA, AS, AC, SS, and SC.
