Oil spills happen when people make mistakes or are careless and cause an oil tanker (a ship that carries oil from one country or place to another) to leak oil into the ocean. ... Natural disasters (like hurricanes) may cause an oil spill, too, by flipping an oil tanker over, causing oil to come pouring out.

An oil spill is the release of a liquid petroleum hydrocarbon into the environment, especially the marine ecosystem, due to human activity, and is a form of pollution. The term is usually given to marine oil spills, where oil is released into the ocean or coastal waters, but spills may also occur on land.

plz mark me as brainliest :)

A release of oil into the environment, either leaked or discharged from a ship, lorry, truck etc
The major environmental impacts so far have come from normal activities, rather than catastrophic oil spills.
Or
an accidental release of oil into a body of water, as from a tanker, offshore drilling rig, or underwater pipeline, often presenting a hazard to marine life and the environment.

What is a controlled factor in an experiment?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
Sorry this will probably be pretty long.

So think of the "control" as being something you yourself add to increase or decrease the effects in an experiment.
I'll give you an example so it is not as confusing.
Say you have decided to make an experiment on plants. Which plant can grow the fastest on which type of liquid? What is being added to this experiment? The liquid! Or all of the liquids you used. Like if you used Coke, Lime Gatorade, Orange Gatorade, and Water. Each drink will EFFECT each plant differently.
