Answer: TOXICOLOGY

Explanation: Toxicology is a branch of science that studies that adverse effects that occurs in living organisms when exposed to chemicals and physical agents.

Toxicology deals with risk assessment.

In toxicology, observation and reporting of the symptoms, mechanism of action, detection and treatment of toxic substances when exposed to living organisms especially humans are carried out.

The knowledge of toxicology aids in the advancement of environmental health.

Answer:

Dose-response Studies

Explanation:

This is a study  that  give details  or accounts of events  that occur after an exposure of  organisms to certain doses  or chemicals substances after a period of time, based on the extent of response of the organisms. The main objective is to determine the extent of  effects(negative , rarely negative )  of the exposed chemicals, and the effects of  levels of  dosages on the organism. Thus it is a measure of how each  level of exposure of  to certain drugs or chemicals affects   organism, through their responses after the exposure.

The effects and levels of exposure  is usually represented with  Dose-response Curve.  This is a graphical representation of the potency of the exposed chemical substance e,g drug, and the effects on the functions of body systems of the organism.

The analysis from this is incorporated in public policy by the government, for safety of citizens.

Answer:

Sulfur; nitrogen.

Explanation:

Acid precipitation results when sulfur and nitrogen compounds react with water in the atmosphere.

This acid precipitation is also known as acid rain and it is typically caused by the chemical reaction between sulfur oxide and nitrogen oxide which are released into the air as a result of burning fossil fuels, with water and other chemical elements present in the atmosphere.

Generally, acid precipitation (acid rain) usually have a pH of about 5.1 or below and as such, it is very acidic nature i.e possessing a large amount of hydrogen ions.

Hence, acid precipitation (acid rain) when washed to the earth has negative or harmful effects on various living and non-living organisms such as animals, plants, cars, buildings etc.

Refer the the graph below showing the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll a. Explain what the graph is showing
Stella [2.4K]

Answer: The graph shows that chlorophyll a absorbs light principally around 420-450 nm and 650-680nm wavelengths

Explanation: Chlorophyll a is a pigment found in plants that traps light energy for use in photosynthesis. Chlorophyll a absorbs light mostly in the blue and orange-red wavelengths. This is shown in the graph, where the peaks are around the 400nm and 600nm wavelengths, corresponding to blue and red in visible light.

This absorption means the pigment is 'excited' by this light, sending into a higher state if energy which provides energy for the reactions of photosynthesis.
