1. Vog

The term vog comes from combining the words volcano and smog. The word itself is created to associate with pollution, as it is a natural pollution of the atmosphere. The vog represents the sulfur dioxide and the other gases and particles that the volcanoes release into the atmosphere when they erupt. These gases and particles further react with the moisture in the atmosphere and the oxygen while exposed to sunlight. This process causes a large natural pollution of the air in the area influenced by the volcanic activity.

2. Model

Steven Businger is a scientists that has devoted big portion of his career in examining the volcanoes and their activities. Most of his research has been on the Hawaii Islands and the volcanoes on them. With his vast experience and knowledge of the volcanic activities and their products, Businger managed to create a model that predicts how the smoke from the volcanoes spreads. This model has been very helpful as it can be used for warning the population on time, as well as using it for avoiding accidents, especially in the air traffic.

3. Sulfur dioxide

One of the gasses that is in largest quantities in the smoke produced by the volcanic eruptions is the sulfur dioxide. This gas is a natural polluter of the atmosphere, so once big amount of it is propelled into the atmosphere, it manages to have big effect over the area that is affected. It is a gas that is very harmful for the living organisms, thus for the human health as well. It is mostly damaging the respiratory system, managing to cause lot of damage that can easily be fatal if the amount of sulfur dioxide is high.

Explain in steps how overfishing of species like tuna, cod, and sardines can affect the kelp population of the bay ecosystem.
Zina [86]
Those fish species are removed/ weakened so the organisms that the fish eat have less natural predators and increase in population. They need to eat more kelp in order to sustain their population, resulting in a loss of kelp as there is suddenly more of a demand for it then the kelp can grow. All because the predators were removed from the food chain.

yulyashka [42]

Out of the following given choices;

A.microorganisms on large fish would decrease

B.cleaners and mimics would interbreed

C.behavior of large fish would change

D. cleaner population would increase

The answer is C. This is because, as a natural mechanism to defend themselves,the larger fish would become averse to all cleaner fish and cleaner-fish-looking fishes because it is difficult to differentiate between the beneficial and attacker fishes.   Ultimately the cleaner fish would decrease and the larger fish would become more infested with parasites on their bodies.

choli [55]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>D. It is the female part of the plant and contains the ovules, which house the main egg. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Pistil is the part of female reproductive system of the plants. Stigma, style and ovary together constitute a pistil. Ovary is the swollen base of the pistil that contains eggs or ovules to which the nuclei of the pollen grain fuse and form seed.

Stigma is the outer most part that captures the pollen grains and transfers it to the ovary through the style. Style is the elongated part that connects the stigma and the ovary.
