  • Leaves
  • Animals
  • Rocks
  • Shells
  • Corals

Question 3

Anthropogenic cause of pollution are human causes of pollution. Some of these are:

  • Combustion of fossil fuels in internal combustion engines release harmful and toxic gases into the atmosphere and causes hair pollution.
  • Improper disposal of waste can produce effluent that reaches the ground water system and other fresh water sources.
  • Noise pollution from airports is very harmful to ear.
  • Mining activities degrades soil and removes rich fertile soils that should be used for agriculture.
  • Mining wastes can lead to contamination of water bodies around.

Fossil fuels are fuel types that forms from natural process in which organisms are decomposed anaerobically to preserve their energy components. Some of these fuels are:

  • Coal
  • Crude oil
  • Natural gas

Question 5

  • Heart diseases ; ischaemic heart diseases can lead to failure of the heart when it does not receive enough oxygen from the environment. Air pollution contaminates available oxygen in the atmosphere and this is very dangerous to life.
  • Lung cancer: poor air quality can lead to the development of cancerous tumor in the lungs.
  • Asthma: air pollution is one of the leading cause of asthma.

Other notable mentions are bronchitis, pulmonary diseases, stroke

An anthropologist discovers the fossilized heart of an extinct animal. The evidence indicates that the organism's heart was larg
Paladinen [302]

A reasonable conclusion supported by these observations is that the animal was endothermic and had a high metabolic rate.

<u>Explanation:</u>

With reference to warm-blooded species is preferred the endothermic are the species that preserve a steady body temperature regardless of the ambient temperature. Endothermic species mainly include animal kingdom birds and mammals. Many shrimp, however are endothermic too.

If a variation occurs, i.e. if the heat produced is less than the heat loss, the metabolic rate increases to compensate for that loss. Shivering is another method used by people and many other warm-blooded organisms to boost their body temperature. But in case the heat loss is smaller than the heat produced, the process of panting or suddening occurs to increase the heat loss.
