Answer:

D. atmospheric aerosols.

Explanation:

<em>Atmospheric aerosols are tiny particles that float in the air. These particles could be liquid or solid and are usually suspended primarily by direct emission into the atmosphere or secondarily by condensation process. </em>

Atmospheric aerosols have numerous effects on the biotic and abiotic factors of the environment. They alter air quality and impact human health in some cases, they can reduce atmospheric visibility, and they also reduce the amount of radiation that reaches the earth by scattering or reflecting some of the radiations from the sun back into space, leading to cooling of the atmosphere.

Air moves into the lungs when the air pressure in the lungs is lower than the air pressure outside of the lungs. This occurs when the muscels of the diaphragm contract.

You can see this by breathing in and out deeply. When you breath in you can feel your chest being pushed up and out by your diaphragm. The reason the pressure in the chest is lower is that when you breathe in you are increasing the volume of your chest. As there is the same amount of air in your chest the pressure decreases.

Which statement correctly describes cancer formation?
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Cancer is formed when there are mutations in a number of genes.

Explanation:

Malignant tumors are gene diseases which do not mean that cancer is necessarily an inherited disease (only in 5-10% of cases the cancer is inherited) because the vast majority of other tumors are the result of somatic, ie secondary, mutations that lead to malignant transformation.

Only 2% of human diseases are monogenic (caused by a change in one gene). The remaining 98% of the disease is either polygenic (caused by a change in several genes at the same time) or epigenetic (caused by non-genetic or post-genetic disorders of cellular molecules).
