Answer:

They do not directly affect people but destroy the ozone molecules in the atmosphere.

Explanation:

CFCs, or chlorofluorocarbons, are non-toxic substances for humans, however, when they reach the ozone layer, they react with it destroying the molecules that protect the earth's surface from the direct incidence of ultraviolet rays.

Ultraviolet rays are shortwave rays, capable of generating damage at the cellular level in organisms.

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Directional selection tends to evolve towards one specific trait. In this example, white rabbits no longer have a competitive advantage because of disappearing snow. This means they are more easily spotted by predators, resulting in reduced fitness and less chance they will live to reproductive age and pass their recessive white alleles on.

Natural selection will favor the gray colour allele, increasing the frequency oft this previously rare allele.

Minerals are rarely used in everyday life true or false
Softa [21]

Answer: False

Reason: We Use Minerals In our day to day life, when it comes to cooking, or burning. We use Salt to cook amazing meals, and some pots and pans have minerals built in to them so that they last longer over the years you cook with them. When we burn in the fireplace or in the backyard, some of us use coal and light it up, and sometimes, we use minerals to make buildings. In one of my neighboring towns, their City Hall has little mineral pieces built into the City Hall. I hope this helps, and happy holidays! :)
