What problems can pseudoscience cause for society?

Biology
1 answer:
KIM [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

It is quite difficult to picture a pseudoscientist—really picture him or her over the course of a day, a year, or a whole career. What kind or research does he or she actually do, what differentiates him or her from a carpenter, or a historian, or a working scientist? In short, what do such people think they are up to?

… it is a significant point for reflection that all individuals who have been called “pseudoscientists” have considered themselves to be “scientists”, with no prefix.

The answer might surprise you. When they find time after the obligation of supporting themselves, they read papers in specific areas, propose theories, gather data, write articles, and, maybe, publish them. What they imagine they are doing is, in a word, “science”. They might be wrong about that—many of us hold incorrect judgments about the true nature of our activities—but surely it is a significant point for reflection that all individuals who have been called “pseudoscientists” have considered themselves to be “scientists”, with no prefix.

True or false: it is necessary to have a nervous system to sense and respond to the environment.
Mila [183]
Hello!

This would be false as it is just nerves inside of the body impulsing between each other and that would not be necessary to adapt to a new environment. 

I hope this helped!

I am, yours most sincerely,

If the amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide were decreased, what would be the most direct effect on the ecosystem?
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

C. Producers would have less material for making food.

Explanation:

An ecosystem can be defined as the natural living habitats of both living and non-living organisms, in which they interact with one another. Essential services such as plant pollination, water purification, nutrient cycling etc that are being provided by the ecosystem are really very vital, important and useful for the sustenance of life, both for humans and enhances social welfare.

A list of the types of organisms in an eco pyramid are;

I. Producers: these are autotrophs or self-feeders such as plants.

II. Primary consumers: these are herbivores that typically feed on plants such as a goat or deer.

III. Secondary consumers: these consists of carnivores that typically feed or eat flesh such as lion, tiger, cheetah, etc.

IV. Tertiary consumers: these are higher predators such as humans that aren't normally fed on by other organisms in the ecosystem.

In Biology, producers are the living organisms that are capable of manufacturing their own food and as such can provide energy or food for the other living organisms (consumers) in a food chain. Thus, producers are mainly known as the foundation of a food chain and are at the top.

A producer gets energy from the sun and converts it into food. The cells found in producers are capable of converting the energy received directly from the sun into food through a process generally referred to as photosynthesis, converting carbon dioxide from the air, water from the soil, minerals and energy from the sun into organic nutrients.

Hence, if the amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide were decreased, the most direct effect on the ecosystem is that producers would have less material for making food.
