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.

At different places one earth, depending on elevation, air pressure varies. What causes air pressure?
sleet_krkn [62]
Weight of air

Depending on elevation, the air pressure varies. This is because of the weight of the air that is exerting pressure on earth. At higher elevation, there is less layer of air that is exerting pressure so the atmospheric pressure is also less. At lower altitudes or at sea level, more layer of air is exerting pressure so the atmospheric pressure is also more. The sun’s energy has nothing to do with air pressure. The energy that the Earth gets from the sun is more or less constant. The same with density of nitrogen, and the earth’s magnetic field, they have nothing to do with air pressure.
