Answer:

False

Explanation:

The salt concentration inside the body of freshwater fish is higher as compared to the water in which it live . However this is not the the case with marine fish which have low salt concentration in their blood  as compares to the salt in the sea water. In order to maintain sufficient salt in the fresh water fish body, specialized cell in the gills take ions from water and transport it into the blood.  Thus it can be said that A freshwater fish regulate its salt levels by pumping salt inward across its gills

Environmental impacts of greenhouse gases released from livestock  production - increase in atmospheric temperature

Explanation:

Environmental impacts of particles, such as dust and  smoke, released from livestock production -

Release of particles such as  dust and  smoke is referred to as particulate pollution. These particle makes the air unfit for .breathing. If humans inhale it, it will adversely affect the heart and lungs.

These particle impair the visibility, can lead to acid rain, degrade the ecosystem etc.

Answer:

Horizontal gene transfer

Explanation:

Horizontal gene transfer or lateral gene transfer is when an organisms of different species can acquire a gene from a different one. This process is well understood in bacteria and is responsible for the appearence of antibiotic resistant bacteria. Bacteria can take DNA fragments through a process known as transformation, but this is less common in eukaryotes. Gene transfer agents like viruses could carry the gene from one specimen to the other. Another way could be Horizontal transposon transfer but the exact mechanisms behind it are still under research.
