Answer: B.) Find a way to incinerate waste without allowing lead to escape.

Explanation:

Incineration is a process of waste treatment. In this process the combustion of materials takes place at high temperature. This process converts the waste into ash, heat and flue ash. The ash is usually in the form of inorganic constituents. The flue gas may contain particulate pollutants. The heat produce can be use for generation of electricity.

Lead can be generated in the process of incineration as an inorganic product. The lead is a toxic pollutant which can cause deadly respiratory problems. Therefore, the escape of the lead as an incinerate waste should be prevented.

enyata [817]
Yes, Only bacteria can convert molecular nitrogen, into a form which can be utilized by other living beings such as plants. The nitrogen fixed by the bacteria, by this process, become available to the plants, which uptakes it, for their own growth, and is also accumulated in their seeds. Further, leguminous plants have nitrogen-fixing bacteria associated with them in synergy. They provide the plant with additional nitrogen, and in exchange obtain nutrients from the plant, for their growth and division.
