Scientists have studied oceanic plastic garbage "patches" around the world. These are areas that accumulate plastic garbage from

coastal regions. Their environmental effect ranges from killing sea life to blocking sunlight from reaching photosynthetic organisms. Without a change in human plastic usage, new garbage patches will continue to form. Which human activity would most directly reduce the amount of plastic garbage that enters the ocean?
a.Ban the production and usage of all bags made from recycled plastic.
b.Clean up plastic trash from shorelines, rivers, and other waterways that fl ow into the oceans.
c.Manufacture fewer reusable water bottles, so that people will be more likely to use disposable ones.
d.Implement a glass bottle deposit system to discourage people from recycling plastic bottles.

Answer:

b. Clean up plastic trash from shorelines, rivers, and other waterways that flow into the oceans.

Explanation:

Oceanic plastic garbage "patches" are a build up of debris most especially plastic, nylons, waste from wood that was deposited purposely or not purposely( by the wind or ocean waves) into the ocean.

Human activity that would most directly reduce the amount of plastic garbage that enters the ocean includes the cleaning up plastic trash from shorelines, rivers, and other waterways that flow into the oceans.

Everyone in Squidward’s family has light blue skin, which is the dominant trait for body color in his hometown of Squid Valley.
Colt1911 [192]

All their children will have heterozygous genes because squidward is "purebred", or homozygous dominant. His wife has to be homozygous recessive for a recessive trait to show up. Every time you cross a homozygous dominant trait with a homozygous recessive trait, you will get heterozygous kids. This means all of them will have light blue skin.

Thus, it is not random and based on the traits that are helpful in a environment or for the survival of
