The answer is <span>non-biodegradable and subject to bioaccumulation and/or bioamplification.
DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) is persistent, non-degradable insecticide and organic pollutant readily accumulated to soils and consequently affects organisms.
DDE (</span><span>dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene) is non-degradable pesticide toxic to birds at the first place.
PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) are non-degradable organic compounds very toxic to the environment.
PBDEs (polybrominated diphenyl ethers) are non-degradable compounds very toxic to environment, even able to affect brains of animals in the development period.</span>
Answer:
The chemical characteristics of carbon affect the characteristics of organic molecules due to its tetravalent nature. It has four valence electrons in which it shares with other elements in order to form an octet configuration.
Carbon atoms are also capable of forming double and triple bonds with other atoms. These properties help determine the functional group present and gives us a knowledge of the chemical features such as polarity, melting and boiling present in the compound.
2.91 is the amount of atoms
