Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Carcinogenic

Explanation:

A carcinogenic substance is able to modify or damage the genome in a way which promotes the formation of cancerous cells. Cell cycle checkpoint proteins are very crucial for the progression of normal cell cycle. They check for any anomaly in their designated step and halt the process if it is detected. Repair mechanism is activated and cell cycle does not progress till the damage has been repaired.

Here, the pollutant alters the structure of these proteins such that they lose their function. They are not be able to stop cell cycle from progressing even if there is some damage in the genome. The cell divides and gives rise to more damaged cells. Eventually these cells lose their normal function and just keep dividing due to which their division rate becomes double of the normal rate. It can ultimately give rise to cancer which is why the chemical is carcinogenic.

3. What sedimentary rock is made up of pieces
ELEN [110]

<u>Coquina</u> is the sedimentary rock is made up of pieces  of shells.

Two types of sedimentary rock: Clastic and chemical sedimentary rocks

Explanation:

Coquina is the sedimentary rock formed by fragments or pieces of shells of marine animals like mollusks, brachiopods, trilobites and certain invertebrates.

The shells of marine animals are fragmented due to abrasion and mechanical degradation and sorting by the wave action and chemicals present in the sea water and gets transported which then sediments to form rock structures called coquina. The shells mostly contain calcium carbonate.

Chalk is the sedimentary rock formed b the fossil shells fragmented from foraminifers. This is a more powdery type of limestone.

Depending upon the type of sedimentation, sedimentary rocks are of three types:

Clastic – Made from sedimentation of clastic (pieces from broken rocks) through the processes of mechanical weathering and lithification (cementing and compacting). sandstone, conglomerate

Chemical – Made from evaporation of water and precipitation of materials which were previously dissolved in a solution. Example: Rock salt, dolomite

Organic – Repeated accumulation and sedimentation of organic matter or remains from plant and animal sources like bones (calcium deposits). Example: coal.
