It is important to explain that the more sulfur impurities that there are, then the more sulfur iv oxide is released into the atmosphere, causing acid deposition in the rain water and into cities and towns.

This question is unfortunately incomplete. The burning of coal containing sulfur can lead to the release of sulfur oxide compounds to the atmosphere.

Humans, like all mammals, are diploid organisms. This means that we have two copies of each chromosome. In diploid organisms, one somatic cell would have two copies of each gene. This means that in one somatic cell, an individual carries two copies of alleles for long eyelashes, and also two copies of alleles for short eyelashes.
