What is point source pollution?
Anettt [7]

Answer:

  1. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines point source pollution as any contaminant that enters the environment from an easily identified and confined place.
  2. The classic image of a factory smokestack belching smoke and fumes into the air or an industrial discharge pipe pouring contaminated liquid into a river are some great examples of point source releases to the environment.
  3. Nonpoint source (NPS) pollution is pollution resulting from many diffuse sources, in direct contrast to point source pollution which results from a single source.

Hope this helps :)

What process exerts the pull on water molecules that is relayed from leaf to root via cohesion? what process exerts the pull on
marissa [1.9K]

Evaporation of the water is the process that exerts the pull on water molecules that is relayed from leaf to root via cohesion. The pressure of the water present in the leaves becomes less due to evaporation of water. The pressure of water in the roots and lower part of the shoot is high. This gradient of pressure creates a pull on the water molecules present in the roots to move upwards to the leaves to occupy the vacant space. The whole process is called transpiration.

arsen [322]

Answer:

1. Radiometric dating

2. Relative dating is used to determine the age of fossils or rock layers by by comparing it to similar rocks and fossils of known ages.

3. The youngest rock layers are at the top and the oldest are at the bottom, which is according to the law of superposition.

4. Tribolite and Pecten fossils

Fossils are used to determine the ages of rock layers. Index fossils are the most useful in determining relative aging. Index fossils are of organisms that lived for a short period of time. An index fossil allows a scientist to determine the age of the rock it is in. So if they are found in a particular age, it means they belong in that age.

5. Scientists commonly use radioactive dating methods by using radioactive decay cloak of certain elements such as potassium or carbon to date fossils or rocks.

6. Law of superposition because in terms of finding the age of the rock as an object, all that needs to be identified are the layers of the rock.

7. The nuclear decay of radioactive elements are a process that behaves in a clock-like fashion which makes it a useful tool for determining the exact age of fossils or rocks.
