The cons of using dispersants are their toxicity to marine environment. Dispersants are also less effective on heavy oils. Dispersants result to oil sinking into the water column from the surface hence this spreads the effect of pollution. Advantages of dispersants are they reduce oil pollution impact onshore and also reduce its risks to marine animals with furs or plumage.

Advantages of using bacteria are that they consume the oil until no residue is left. The bacteria are not toxic like dispersants and reduce in number when the oil pollutant is degraded. Cons of bacteria are that they are unable to break down particular hydrocarbons; they are slow in degrading the oil and are only particularly effective in finishing off oil residue rather than cleaning up large oil spills.

How does the movement of particles of matter change when temperature increases?

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

The movement of particles of the matter increases with the increase in temperature.

The particles gain kinetic energy with increasing temperature and move in faster rate.

For example: When we blow a balloon with our mouth, we increases the temperature inside the balloon, the particles in the balloon gain kinetic energy that leads to the faster movement of gas particles in the balloon and they collide with each other and surface of balloon, after a peak the balloon get burst because of high kinetic energy and high collision.

Hence, the correct answer is "increases".

Water can cause chemical weathering by which process?

Lady_Fox [76]

Chemical weathering changes the composition of rocks, often transforming them when water interacts with minerals to create various chemical reactions. Chemical weathering is a gradual and ongoing process as the mineralogy of the rock adjusts to the near surface environment.

How does energy acquisition in the deep sea differ from energy acquisition near the ocean’s surface?

hram777 [196]

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. The energy acquisition in the deep sea differ from energy acquisition near the ocean’s surface by the fact that organisms in the deep sea do not have direct access to sunlight. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
