Zinaida [17]3 years ago
5 0

Pollutants can be stated as the substance which affects the environment and it causes lots of not wanted effects.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>Types of pollutants:</u>

1.Air pollution

2. Water pollution

3. Soil pollution

<u>Sources of Air pollution:</u>

  • Sources of Air pollution are listed below pollution causing substances from vehicles.
  • Then the polluting substances from power plants and industries
  • Then emission of wood and stuff

<u>Effects of Air pollution:</u>

  • The effects of air pollution include can lead to respiratory problems.

<u>Sources of water pollution:</u>

  • The sources of water pollution include radioactive substances, disposal from sewage waste disposal from industries and factories.

<u>Effects of water pollution:</u>

  • The effects of water pollution include it kills the living organisms in water bodies and it contaminates the water bodies

<u>Sources of land pollution:</u>

  • The source of  land pollution comes from the contamination and waste disposal of human wastes, then the mining activities will lead to the contamination of land pollution and nuclear waste

<u>Effects of land pollution:</u>

  • The contamination of land pollution causes an increase in Landfill, soil pollution and it will lead to human health disorder and sometimes it will lead to endangered species of animals

How does renewable energy affect non-human organisms? (plants, animals, bacteria, fungi,etc.)
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Non Renewable Energy Impact on Environment

All energy sources have some impact on our environment. Fossil fuels—coal, oil, and natural gas—do substantially more harm than renewable energy sources by most measures, including air and water pollution, damage to public health, wildlife and habitat loss, water use, land use, and global warming emissions.

During meiosis homologous chromosomes often twist around each other break exchange segments and rejoin this process usually cont
Annette [7]

Explanation:

Crossing over, or genetic recombination contributes to genetic variation and diversity.

In early Prophase I of meiosis, crossing over occurs. This is the exchange of segments of chromosome, between non-sister homologous or similar chromatids crossing over happens at chiasmata, the point where non-sister chromosomes are joined. The chromosome pairs form tetrads held together at chiasmata.

Further Explanation:

All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly wound around histones as chromosomes. To produce daughter cells, the chromosomes (total number of chromosomes (2n)) are copied before the cell splits into two daughter cells. This process is known as mitosis, and occurs in cell division and growth processes. Two new nuclei are formed, along with identical cells. These are the same as the parent cell and the chromosome number (2n) is maintained. Conversely in meiosis, the number of chromosomes (2n) is halved through meiotic divisions, producing 4 (n) germ cells (sperm or eggs), each containing half the number of chromosomes as its parent cell.

During the process of prophase I one the nuclear envelope containing chromosomes has only partly broken down homologous chromosomes are joined together by proteins and a complex or pairing call synapsis- corresponding genes on chromatids are aligned precisely. The syanpsis allows for crossing over which is the exchange of segments of chromosome, between non-sister homologous or similar chromatids crossing over happens at chiasmata, the point where non-sister chromosomes are joined.

Crossing over contributes to genetic variation and diversity; novel gene combinations in gametes are formed, which are not present in parent chromosomes. Genetic diversity describes all the genetic characteristics or traits within a species.
