Answer:
Food 5
Plastic 1
Explanation:
behaviors of people as well as the rapid advances of technology, amounts and the composition of MSW have been also changed. In a study carried out by the European Environmental Agency to study the per capita annual MSW produced by 32 European countries during 2001–2010, they found that this waste increased in 21 countries, and was decreased in 11 countries. The study also studied the amount of wastes of 26 countries between 2001 and 2008; they found that these amounts decreased in 6 countries. Thus, the amounts and characteristics of the wastes varied from country to another country, as well as from region to region even within the same city according the mentioned factors including the usage habits of people
The correct answer is option C, that is, viruses.
An infection occurs when a foreign species moves inside the body of an individual and causes harm. The species utilizes the body of that person to reproduce, sustain itself, and colonize. These infectious species are called pathogens. The examples of pathogens are viruses, bacteria, prions, and fungi.
Of the given options, viruses are the smallest infectious agent. The viruses are basic particles, which must infect a host cell to reproduce and develop. Viruses utilize the host cells metabolic machinery to double themselves.
Drastic changes in environmental conditions can sometimes cause drastic changes to the gene pool of the population.
I believe your stance on mutation is in needs to be re-evaluated. The articles I’ve been reading say that mutations are either harmful or neutral. There are, however, such things as beneficial mutations. For example, there are people with mutations in the CCR5 gene that make them virtually immune to HIV. There are also a class of cancer drugs that are 100% effective, but only in a minority of individuals that have a certain mutation. Both of these mutations could seriously improve a person’s chance of survival. I therefore fail to see what makes you think all mutations are bad?
