Answer:

Point source pollution:

  • Smoke from a factory
  • Sewage
  • Oil from a garage that  is released into water

Non-point source pollution:

  • Smoke from cars

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to <u>United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)</u> regulations, <u>point source pollution</u> is a type of pollution in which contaminant is released into the environment from an <u>easily identified source</u>. In the examples given above, smoke from a factory, sewage, and oil effluents are coming from easily identifiable sources.

On the other hand, a <u>non-point source of pollution</u> is the release of contaminant in the environment <u>through diffused or unidentifiable sources</u>. In the examples given above, smoke from cars could be stated as non-point sources of pollution because vehicles are in a continously moving state.

Under normal light conditions auxins are spread out in the plant. But when sunlight varies, auxin is broken down on the sunnier side of the stem. The higher concentration of auxin on the shady side causes the plant cells on that side to grow more so it bendstoward the light.

Hope it helps you..

Small body (nb), short spines (Is) and amoral are three recessive traits in stick the genes of which are linked on the same chro
melomori [17]

Answer:

The three genes in coupling are in repulsion.

Explanation:

Coupling happens when the dominant alleles and the recessive alleles are on the same homologous chromosome, while the repulsion happens when one chromosome has one dominant allele and one recessive allele and another homologous chromosome also has dominant and recessive alleles.

If the progeny has:

nb+ ls+ a/nb ls a ⇒ nb+ ls+ a

nb ls a+/nb ls a ⇒ nb ls a+

Where nb+ ls+ a is the dominant alleles and nb and nb+ is in middle.

ls+ nb+ are on the same chromosome (both dominant)

ls nb are on the same chromosome (both recessive)

ls nb, these two are in coupling with each other, but ls+ and a are on the chromosome and ls+ or nb+ are dominant, while nb+ and a are recessive on form a, thus, ls and nb, they are in repulsion with a.
