Answer:

C. Oil from the oil spill could enter aquatic organisms, like fish, which could make people sick.

Explanation:

Fish filter water to remove oxygen or food. With contamination of water by oil spill, the oil is absorbed by the fish organism during these natural processes. Not necessarily these animals will die from it. But the substances can lodge in the fish's body and stay there for years. As a result, they contaminate the entire food chain, causing disease to all who feed on this fish. From this we can state that oil from oil spills can enter aquatic organisms such as fish, which can make people sick because they will consume fish infected with oil.

all plants give out oxygen during day and carbon dioxide during night. Do you agree with this statement. Give reason
Citrus2011 [14]

This statement is incomplete.

"All plants give out oxygen during day and carbon dioxide during night"

Explanation :

Photosynthesis occurs only during day time.

During this time oxygen is produced . Some oxygen is used for respiration and rest of oxygen is diffused out into air.

Carbon dioxide produced during day time by respiration is used in photosynthesis.

But at night time, no photosynthesis occurs  and hence no oxygen is produced oxygen from air diffuses into leaves to carry out respiration and carbon dioxide produced by respiration diffuses out into air.

Hence Respiration occurs day and night .. Hence Carbon dioxide  is emitted  all the time....
