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.

1. Flowers must rely on vectors to move pollen. These vectors can include wind, water, birds, insects, butterflies, bats, and other animals that visit flowers. We call animals or insects that transfer pollen from plant to plant “pollinators”.

2. Germination:When a seed falls on the ground, it needs warmth and water in order to germinate; some seeds also need light. Dicots have seed coats that soften with moisture. After being planted in the soil for a few days, the seed absorbs water and swells until the seed coat splits.

Wind Pollination
Many of our forest trees are wind pollinated, as are important prairie plants such as grasses, ragweed, and sage. Some pollen eventually falls into lakes or peatlands where it collects with other sediments, layer after layer, year after year.
