8 0

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.

Eukaryotic cells are duplicated by its nucleus, however, despite it being classified as an eukaryotic cell, the mitochondria does all the work on it's own. Again, it supports the endosymbiotic theory because it contains characteristics similar to single-celled prokaryotic cells despite it being classified as an eukaryotic cell. </span>
