A scuba diver with a local Sheriff’s office has been assigned the task of retrieving a sunken vessel in the Ocean. The vessel is

believed to have human remains inside. The scuba diver descends to a depth that is 60 feet below the surface of the ocean and breathes out a stream of bubbles. What is the total gas pressure of these bubbles at the moment they are released? What is the gas pressure in the bubbles when they reach the surface of the river?

First, we convert the depth of the water into meters. This is:
60 feet = 18.3 meters

Now, we compute the additional pressure exerted due to the water, which is given by:
Pressure = density * gravitational field strength * height
P = 1000 * 9.81 * 18.3
P = 179.5 kPa

The atmosphere pressure is 101.325 kPa
The pressure of the gas bubbles 60 feet under water will be:
179.5 + 101.325 = 280.825 kPa

The pressure at the surface of the water will be equal to the atmospheric pressure, 101.325 kPa.

Because of this decrease in external pressure as gas bubbles rise, they are seen to expand.

What are some positive applications for allelotoxin?
pogonyaev

Positive applications for allelotoxin is that it prevents plants from enduring any type of competition with other species.

<h3>What is Allelopathy?</h3>

This is the process in which a plant inhibits the growth of another through a secretion of a chemical which is referred to as allelotoxin.

This technique however reduces biodiversity which isn't ideal so as to prevent organisms from going extinct and also reduces adaptation or evolution due to the reduced or non growth of the plant species which are affected.

A common example is  the sorghum plant preventing of the growth of weeds thereby resulting in the most appropriate choices for the positive applications of allelotoxin.
