Point source means: the pollution that comes from a single point (examples)
Sewage pipes releasing sewage into a ditch
Smokestack style factory chimneys
Oil pipes
Pollution which is caused by rain fall or snow melting into the ground. As the runoff moves, it picks up and carries away natural and human made pollutants, Finally reaching a lake, river, ocean, groundwater.
What attraction does the positive ab have with the negative ab?
Answer:
Independent variable: ALTITUDE
dependent variable: GROWTH OF PLANTS
Confounding variable: STOREYS OF THE BUILDING
Explanation:
In an experiment, the basic components i.e primary variables that an experiment should contain, are the independent and dependent variables.
- The independent variable is the variable that is changed or manipulated in an experiment. In this experiment, the ALTITUDE of the plant is the independent variable.
- The dependent variable is the variable that responds to changes to the independent variable. It is the variable measured in an experiment. In this case, the dependent variable is the GROWTH OF THE PLANTS.
- The confounding variable is a variable that has an extra influence on the outcome of the experiment. In other words, the confounding variable has an impact on the dependent variable. In this case, the confounding variable is the STOREYS OF THE BUILDING.
