Mass and volume are two characteristics of matter:-

Mass is a measure of an object's inertia. It is proportional to weight: the more mass an object has, the more weight it has. However, mass is not the same as weight. Weight is a force created by the action of gravity on a substance while mass is a measure of an object's resistance to change in motion. Mass is measured by comparing the substance of interest to a standard kilogram called the International Prototype Kilogram (IPK). The IPK is a metal cylinder for which the height and diameter both equal 39.17 millimeters and is made of an alloy of 90% platinum and 10% iridium. Thus, the standard kilogram is defined and all other masses are a comparison to this kilogram. When atom masses are measured in a mass spectrometer, a different internal standard is used. Your take home lesson with regard to mass is that mass is a relative term judged by a comparison.

Volume is a measure of the amount of space occupied by an object. Volume can be measured directly with equipment designed using graduations marks or indirectly using length measurements depending on the state (gas, liquid, or solid) of the material. A graduated cylinder, for example, is a tube that can hold a liquid which is marked and labeled at regular intervals, usually every 1 or 10 mL. Once a liquid is placed in the cylinder, one can read the graduation marks and record the volume measurement. Since volume changes with temperature, graduated equipment has limits to the precision with which one can read the measurement. Solid objects that have regular shape can have their volume calculated by measuring their dimensions. In the case of a box, its volume equals length times width times height.

Zina [86]

Answer: Intertidal zones are regions which lie above the water level which receives low tides. Estuaries are the closed bodies of coastal waters which contain brackish water.

Explanation:

The ways through which the intertidal zones and estuaries can be protected are as follows:

1. The chemical discharge from factories and sewage discharge must be restricted or prohibited in these areas so that the water and air quality remains good necessary for the survival of living beings.

2. Prohibiting the waterways to prevent the discharge of oils which can contaminate water of estuaries and soil of intertidal zones.

3. The trash of polythene bags, plastic materials, vegetable matter discharged from the city must be cleaned up to retain the quality of soil and water.
