Which indicators are living and non-living?

Biology
1 answer:
bulgar [2K]4 years ago
7 0
Living indicators are species that are sensitive to changes in the environment. For example air pollution can be monitored by looking at lichen, which are sensitive to sulphur dioxide in the air. The number of lichen at a particular location indicates how clear the air is. Similarly, mayfly larvae are good indicators for water pollution because they're sensitive to the concentration of dissolved oxygen in water.

Non-living indicators are things like satellites which can measure the temperature of the sea surface, weather stations that measure atmospheric temperature, rain gauges to measure rainfall, and dissolved oxygen meters to measure concentration of dissolved oxygen in water.

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

<u><em>The correct option is C) Prions</em></u>

Explanation:

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE)  or Mad Cow Disease  is a disease which occurs due to transmissible particles known as prions. Prions cannot be considered as living organisms as they do not acquire many of the living characteristics. They are just considered as a protein which gest converted into an activated, toxic form  as soon as they encounter a host cell. This toxic protein harms the central nervous system (CNS) of the cow host and is transmissible.
