Answer:

It does not decompose quickly.

Explanation:

DDT stands for <em>"Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane." </em>It is an insecticide that doesn't break down easily. It becomes toxic to the environment and to the people because<em> it lasts so many years</em>. Some may be bound to the particles in the soil and these are <em>carried into the bodies of water</em>. They could also be carried by migrating birds. This allows the DDT to travel a long distance from the area it was used. This could also <u><em>kill the plant and animal directly</em></u> or could <u><em>affect the animal's way of life </em></u>such as<em> not being able to reproduce </em>and so on.

Why is the simplest strategy for remaining alcohol-free simply to avoid situations where alcohol is present?
astraxan [27]
<span>The simplest strategy for remaining alcohol-free is to avoid alcohol-based situations because you can't be tempted to drink alcohol if it is not around you and there is no chance for you to consume it. An 'out of sight, out of mind' principle works here - if it is not in your immediate frame of reference, you will not be tempted to think about it and then you will be less likely to consume it.</span>
