Answer:

The above given statement represent the Newton;'s 3rd law of motion.

This describes that when two objects collides or interacts with each other, there occurs a pair of forces that directly acts on the two colliding objects. The force exerted on both the sides are of equal magnitude.

For example, there are two contrasting body named M and N, which collides with each other. This collision results in the occurrence of force acting on both the objects. The body M exerts a force on body N and similarly, the body N exerts a force on body M, and this two forces are equal in amount.

What problems do pathogens cause in our society?

kotegsom [21]

Pathogens are microorganisms that cause infectious diseases. Bacteria and viruses are the main pathogens in the world today.

The major problem that pathogen cause in society is that they are the agents of infection and disease.

An infection results when a pathogen invades the body and begins growing within a host. A disease results when tissue function is impaired due to an infection.

The government has to put money aside for health care which would otherwise have been used for other things to help the society.

which of the following statements describes the formation of acid rain?...A. acid rain forms from human activities and lowers th

olga_2 [115]

The correct answer is A. Acid rain forms from human activities and lowers the pH of rainwater below 7

Explanation:

The term "acid rain" is used to refer to rainwater with a low pH or a high acidity, this includes rainwater with a pH below 7 (solutions with a pH under 7 are acidic). In terms of formation, acid rain is mainly the result of human activities such as factories or cars that release pollutants into the atmosphere including nitric and sulfuric acids and these alter the natural pH of rain and makes it more acidic. Additionally, acid rain has negative consequences such as the death of fishes and other organisms in lakes, rivers, etc. because the acidity is toxic to many organisms. Thus, acid rain is the result of human activities and it lowers the pH of rain (Option A).
