In many regions, wetlands have been filled in so as to be able to use the land for farming. Wetlands are vital for reducing the intensity of floods, as they tend to hold back some of the water. Without wetlands, flood will tend to wash increased sediment and pollutants into the ocean, which can have a detrimental effect on marine life. Coastal developments can also have a negative effect on marine life. The removal or moving of beach sand is in particular damaging to intertidal organisms that depend on specific coastal environments, and rocky shores can be smothered by sand, whereas sand environments can change into bare rocky environments. Impounding of rivers and reduced river flow can result in estuaries becoming closed. Many marine organisms, such as fish, depend on estuaries as nursery areas where they lay their eggs. Reduced opening of estuaries means that many fish species cannot reproduce. Built harbours result in changed currents and alteration of the sea floor, which also disrupts marine ecosystems.

Answer: Cystic Fibrosis
Explanation:
Cystic fibrosis (abbreviated CF) is an autosomal recessive genetic disease that mainly affects the lungs, and to a lesser extent the pancreas, liver and intestine, causing an abnormally thick, sticky mucus to build up in these areas. This mucus collects in the airways of the lungs and pancreas. The main cause of morbidity and mortality is pulmonary involvement, which accounts for 95% of deaths, mainly due to repeated infections caused by bronchial obstruction due to the secretion of very thick mucus.
This build up of mucus causes life-threatening lung infections and serious digestive problems. It is one of the most common types of chronic lung disease in children and young adults, and is a life-threatening disorder; patients often die from lung infections due to <em>Pseudomonas</em> or <em>Staphylococcus</em>.
<u>It is a hereditary disease produced by a mutation in the gene encoding the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. This protein is involved in the passage of chlorine ion through cell membranes and its deficiency alters the production of sweat, gastric juices and mucus. </u>The disease develops when neither allele is functional. Over 1500 mutations have been described for this disease, most of which are small deletions or point mutations; less than 1% are due to mutations in the promoter or chromosomal rearrangements. However, many people carry the CF gene, but do not have any symptoms. This is because a person with this disease must inherit 2 defective genes, 1 from each parent.
<u>There is no curative treatment, however there are treatments that allow the improvement of symptoms and extend life expectancy. In severe cases, the worsening of the disease may necessitate a lung transplant.</u>
Because there are not strictly green and yellow plants, this means that
the color can be affected by multiple genes. If it was only affected by
one gene then you would see only the two groups for the color, green and
yellow. The answer is D
<span>There are several genes that control the color.
