How did the Industrial Revolution contribute to the changes in environmental quality that occurred

Biology
1 answer:
melomori [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Negatively

Explanation:

The Industrial Revolution contributed to the first mass scale pollution of the Earth's spheres by the humans. There was pollution prior to it as well, but it was nothing when compared with the period after it occurred. With the development of the industry, lot of waste was released into the waters, or on the soil, often being very toxic and causing severe contamination. The main energy source was the coal, and the coal that was used was releasing enormous amounts of carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere. The places that were located near industrial object, or had industrial objects in them faced enormous pollution of the air, which badly affected the health of the humans, animals, and plants. The first acidic rains caused by the human activity started to appear, causing big damage on the forests.

An inactive gene inherited from an ancestor is an example of which kind of evidence for evolution?
wlad13 [49]

The initial assessment of bats suggested they lacked the ability to synthesize vitamin C (Birney, Jenness, and Ayaz 1976). However, several recent studies have shown that approximately two thirds of different bat species have functionally expressed GULO genes (Cui et al. 2011a; Cui et al. 2011b). The various bat taxon taxa that lack the ability to make vitamin C have varying levels of deletion degradation in their GULOgenes and the patterns of sequence variation show that they are lineage independent events. Trying to explain the discontinuous GULO deletion patterns within a common descent paradigm has produced a variety of difficult contradictions for a coherent model of bat<span> evolution </span>(Cui et al. 2011b).

Loss of vitamin C pathway function and GULO gene degradation has also been detected in guinea pigs, great apes, and humans (Lachapelle and Drouin 2011; Nishikimi, Kawai, and Yagi 1992; Nishikimi et al. 1994; Ohta and Nishikimi 1999). In addition, naturally occurring scurvy and osteogenic disease pathologies related to GULO inactivating mutations and large-scale deletions have been documented in rats, mice, and pigs (Harris et al. 2005; Hasan et al. 2004; Jiao et al. 2005; Kawai et al. 1992; Mohan et al. 2005). Thus, degradation of the GULO gene in a wide array of mammals and birds is a relatively common occurrence.
