1)In your own words explain what air pollution is

Anna11 [10]

Explanation:

Question 1

Air pollution is the introduction of harmful gases and substances into the atmosphere that renders it unfit for use for life. Some of these toxic gases and particulates are:

Carbon monoxide
Carbon dioxide
Nitrogen oxides
Smoke
Dust particles
Soot

Question 2

Natural forms are the original nature or outlook of a substance. Examples of natural forms are:

Flowers
Leaves
Animals
Rocks
Shells
Corals

Question 3

Anthropogenic cause of pollution are human causes of pollution. Some of these are:

Combustion of fossil fuels in internal combustion engines release harmful and toxic gases into the atmosphere and causes hair pollution.
Improper disposal of waste can produce effluent that reaches the ground water system and other fresh water sources.
Noise pollution from airports is very harmful to ear.
Mining activities degrades soil and removes rich fertile soils that should be used for agriculture.
Mining wastes can lead to contamination of water bodies around.

Question 4

Fossil fuels are fuel types that forms from natural process in which organisms are decomposed anaerobically to preserve their energy components. Some of these fuels are:

Coal
Crude oil
Natural gas

Question 5

Heart diseases ; ischaemic heart diseases can lead to failure of the heart when it does not receive enough oxygen from the environment. Air pollution contaminates available oxygen in the atmosphere and this is very dangerous to life.
Lung cancer: poor air quality can lead to the development of cancerous tumor in the lungs.
Asthma: air pollution is one of the leading cause of asthma.

Other notable mentions are bronchitis, pulmonary diseases, stroke

Question 6

_7 million____ people die each year from air pollution according to the world health organization

Question 7

Air Quality Index(AQI) is an indicator used to express the quality of air in particular area. The AQI can tell the present air quality condition. It can also be used to forecast future air quality in years to come.

It shows how clean and polluted the air is.

Question 8

The air quality index uses different colors to alert people about the quality of air. Each color represents different health implication of air quality:

Attached image shows the different colors used to alert people of about the air quality.

Question 9

About 7 million people die annually as a result of air pollution
Beijing cough is new disease that emanates from the rising air pollution in Beijing
Asia has the fastest rising cases of air pollution problems.
The best way to reduce air pollution is by riding bicycles and walking more.

PLZ HELP ME Question 3

Flauer [41]

Answer:

It's impossible to predict the phenotype of the offspring by only observing the parents because DNA from their grandparents can affect the offspring as well.

Explanation:

DNA is combined from the parents to create offspring. When that offspring reproduces their children not only possess DNA from their parents but from their grandparents as well. Mixing together two separate DNA's from two different family trees can result in rare genetic mutations which results in the offspring looking different from their parents but showing resemblance to their grandparents. This is why you have to look at the phenotypes of more then just the two parents because there are more possibilities, including what their grandparents looked like.

What chemical formula reflects the diagram

Elden [556K]

Chemical formula is a way of presenting information about the chemical proportions of atoms that constitute a particular chemical compound or molecule, using chemical element symbols, numbers, and sometimes also other symbols, such as parentheses, dashes, brackets, commas and plus (+) and minus (−) signs. These are limited to a single typographic line of symbols, which may include subscripts and superscripts. A chemical formula is not a chemical name, and it contains no words. Although a chemical formula may imply certain simple chemical structures, it is not the same as a full chemical structural formula. Chemical formulas can fully specify the structure of only the simplest of molecules and chemical substances, and are generally more limited in power than are chemical names and structural formulas.
