The clamming industry in Long Island used to be very lucrative, raking in as much as $100 Million annually. By the 1970s, it had shrunk to less that $40 million per annum.
<h3>What was to blame for the decline according to the article mentioned above?</h3>
2. According to the New York Times Article of 1985, the reason for the steep decline in the value of the Clamming industry was related to the loss of confidence in the health safety of eating raw shellfish.
3. According to the remarkable discovery of the "208 Study", it was discovered that there was a connection between land use and underground water quality. It was also discovered there was a negative impact of dumping sewers in the ocean on the production of shellfish
4. Some of the solutions that were proposed to manage this situation are:
- Using sewers to collect effluents into a septic treatment plant. rather than dumping them into the ocean.
- The implementation of secondary sewage treatment supplemented by ocean disposal of the effluents and
- Monitoring the salinity levels of the clamp ecosystem.

Answer:
Unique Biodiversity. Eighty percent of the world's known terrestrial plant and animal species can be found in forests, and tropical rainforests are home to more species than any other terrestrial habitat. A square kilometer of forest may be home to more than 1,000 species.
Explanation:
Answer:
Silent mutation.
Explanation:
A silent mutation usually does not affect the protein produced by the translation of a given gene, it means, it will not affect the aminoacid sequence of the protein, since the genetic code is degenerated.
A Nonsense mutation will derive in the formation of an early STOP codon, so, the protein will be truncated (shorter than it should be).
It is important to notice that nucleotide insertion and deletion COULD derive also in the formation of a stop codon, but not necessarily, since it can just move the reading frame, and of course it will derive in a different protein.
Igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic
