In mid-ocean ridge areas, ocean water is cycled through the crust because of the high heat flow in the area. Water in the rock is heated over the magmas, rising up and drawing in cold water from the sides. This process is occurring all over the world, and is the primary means for maintaining ocean salinity in a relatively constant range over the long term, as elements in the sea water when it is heated react with the rocks. There is so much water flow, cumulatively over the entire world, that this process basically buffers ocean chemistry. 
Obviously large increases or decreases in salinity can and do occur in isolated basins that do not have free exchange with the open oceans.
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
c. Factors 1 and 2 may be influenced by both nature and human factors
Explanation:
The sea level rising and the change in the atmospheric gases are both processes that are influenced by the nature, as well as by the human activities. Naturally, the earth has its own cycles, known as Milankovich cycles, through which the Earth warms up, or cools down, resulting in change of the atmospheric gases, and in accordance to that, change in the sea levels depending on the global climate. The humans to have become a big factor in the past few hundred years. The reason for that is that the humans with their activity started to release lot of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, especially CO2 and methane. That has been changing the composition of the atmosphere, and the temperatures have been rising. The higher the temperatures, the more ice is melting around the poles and on the high mountains, resulting in an increase in the sea levels.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Noroviruses are a group of viruses that cause gastroenteritis in people. Gastroenteritis is an inflammation of the lining of the stomach and intestines, causing an acute onset of severe vomiting and diarrhea. Norovirus illness is usually brief in people who are otherwise healthy. an RNA virus of the family Caliciviridae, is a human enteric pathogen that causes substantial morbidity across both health care and community settings, causes vomiting and diarrhea. People of all ages can get infected and sick with norovirus. Norovirus spreads easily! You can get norovirus by accidentally getting tiny particles of feces (poop) or vomit from an infected person in your mouth.

Gametic cells
Mutations on somatic cells cannot be passed down to offspring. Rather mutations born on gametic cells are what can be passed down. This is because gametes are the cells involved in fertilization to form zygote that develops into individual organisms.  
Explanation:
Mutation on gametic cells can occur within the time from the pre-gametic cell to the formation of a mature gamete such as sperm or egg. 
Radiation from nuclear reactor accidents in Japan in April 2011, may damage the cell of the body both somatic and gametic. But only those in the gametic cells are passed down Children born to these Japanese people. Radiation causes double-stranded breaks in DNA that are hard to repair by repair mechanisms in the cell leading to mutations.
