According to the Clean Water Act, when is it legal to release pollution into a body of water "when a permit has been issued".

<u>Answer:</u> Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Clean Water Act (CWA) provides the basic form for controlling pollutant discharges into United States water bodies and for maintaining surface water quality standards. The CWA foundation was passed in 1948 and renamed the Federal Water Pollution Control Act but in 1972 the Act was substantially reorganized and extended.

EPA has launched pollution control measures under the CWA, such as regulating and setting industry standards for wastewater. EPA has also developed standards for contaminants in surface waters on national water quality requirements.The CWA made it unlawful to dump any pollutant into navigable waters from a point source, unless a permit was obtained.

KatRina [158]
Discovery
               In 1928 it was discovered by Frederick Griffith in an experiment generally known as transformation.

Experiment
                 
 In his experiment he considered two strains of <em>streptococus pneumonia,</em> one was R-type which was non-virulent and cause no disease in mice, other was virulent and S-type which cause disease and at last death of mice.
This experiment was comprised of four steps which are as follow:

 Step 1:
           First he injected living strain of S into mice, after sometime mouce died.

Step 2:
          He injected living strain of R into mice, the mice alive as he did not got any disease.

Step 3:
         He injected heat killed strain of S into mice and mice remain alive.

Step 4:
           He mixed living R strain with heat killed S strain and then inject into mice. As a result the mice died.

Conclusion:
                  It was found that genetic material from heat killed S stain were transferred to living R (non-virulent) strain, as a result R become virulent and cause the death of mice.
