Why might increased turbidity increase the chance of something harmful being in the water

Biology
1 answer:
sergejj [24]3 years ago
8 0

In drinking water, the more turbid it appears, the higher the chance that  those using it could end up with  gastrointestinal diseases.  The water may be having contaminants such as viruses and pathogenic bacteria which are found attached to suspended solids. These solids may interfere with disinfection of the water.

Erosion and effluent from highly urbanized  areas contribute to the turbidity of water in those areas.  In open bodies of water, organisms such as phytoplankton can contribute to turbidity in the water.

Distinguish between a cell undergoing metaphase and telophase
Dima020 [189]

The cell enters the first phase of mitosis: prophase. The replicated chromosomes condense into shapes that resemble the letter X. The membrane around the nucleus starts to break down. Special structures called spindle fibers form

From there, the cell enters metaphase—the second phase of mitosis. Each chromosome attaches to a spindle fiber at its centromere (the middle of the chromosome). Chromosomes line up at the center of the cell. The next step is anaphase.


The last step is when the cell enters the last phase of mitosis—telophase. The chromosomes begin to uncoil and form chromatin. The spindle breaks down, and two new nuclei form. The cell membrane begins to close in, starting to split the cell into two.
