The common component of air pollution is particulate matter (PM). This is a complex mixture of extremely small particles and liquid droplets.
The major components of PM are sulphates, nitrates, ammonia, sodium chloride, black carbon, dust particles and water. PM comes from dust , soot, smoke, industry and vehicle exhaust as well as complex chemical reactions with other pollutants.
Burning of fossil fuels produces sulphur dioxide . It is a colorless gas that pollutes the air and can cause health problems affecting the respiratory system.
Answer:
In the group of terms, the exception to abiotic factors is bacteria (option b).
Explanation:
Abiotic factors correspond to the elements of an ecosystem that are not considered alive, such as soil, wind, temperature, pH, among others.
All living beings in an ecosystem are biotic elements, including microorganisms such as bacteria. The dynamics of living beings influence the ecosystem, just as abiotic factors influence both the biotic elements and the development of the ecosystem.
Answer and explanation;
-A diverse community would be more resistant to disease, predation, and invasion because it would be a bigger diversity of genes, which means that the chance of disease would be more likely to spread in a different area than in a diverse population.
-Diversity is expected to increase the resilience of ecosystems. A diverse community would be more resistant to disease because of simple biology. The more sources for possible resistance the better the heterogeneous pool will be at resisting disease.
-High diversity strengthens a community and prevents invasion of the introduced predator. After a gradual loss of native species, the introduced predator can escape control and the system collapses into a contrasting, invaded, low-diversity state.
The correct answer is - C) 5:35 PM Friday.
The low tides occur twice in a lunar day, thus they are diurnal. The low tides appear when the Moon is between that point of the planet and the opposite of that point of the planet, thus in between, which is happening twice, on opposite parts of the planet.
Since the lunar day lasts for 24 h 50 m, we should just divide it in two, thus get 12 h 25 m. Than we should add the 12 h 25 to the time when one of the low tides appeared, which is 5:10 AM, so we will get 5:35 PM.
The low tides appear because the Moon is pulling the water upwards with its gravitational pull above the place where it is, so the side parts of the planet have their waters dragged away,thus resulting in the retreating of the water, known as low tide.
