Explanation:
Question 1
Air pollution is the introduction of harmful gases and substances into the atmosphere that renders it unfit for use for life. Some of these toxic gases and particulates are:
- Carbon monoxide
- Carbon dioxide
- Nitrogen oxides
- Smoke
- Dust particles
- Soot
Question 2
Natural forms are the original nature or outlook of a substance. Examples of natural forms are:
- Flowers
- 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.
Question 4
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:
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
Question 6
_7 million____ people die each year from air pollution according to the world health organization
Question 7
Air Quality Index(AQI) is an indicator used to express the quality of air in particular area. The AQI can tell the present air quality condition. It can also be used to forecast future air quality in years to come.
It shows how clean and polluted the air is.
Question 8
The air quality index uses different colors to alert people about the quality of air. Each color represents different health implication of air quality:
Attached image shows the different colors used to alert people of about the air quality.
Question 9
- About 7 million people die annually as a result of air pollution
- Beijing cough is new disease that emanates from the rising air pollution in Beijing
- Asia has the fastest rising cases of air pollution problems.
- The best way to reduce air pollution is by riding bicycles and walking more.

Chlorophyll are the organelles unique to plant cells. The chlorophyll are responsible for producing glucose by using the suns energy and water.
The speed of a sound wave depends upon the medium through which it travels. In general, sound travels faster through solids than through liquids or gases. Also, the denser the medium, the slower sound will travel through it. The same sound will travel at a different speed on a cold day than it would on a warm day.

Explanation:
Cell cycle checkpoint controls play a major role in preventing the development of cancer [see Sherr, 1994, for a more detailed discussion]. Major checkpoints occur at the G1 to S phase transition and at the G2 to M phase transitions. Cancer is a genetic disease that arises from defects in growth-promoting oncogenes and growth-suppressing tumor suppressor genes. The p53 tumor suppressor protein plays a role in both the G1/S phase and G2/M phase checkpoints. The mechanism for this activity at the G1/S phase checkpoint is well understood, but its mechanism of action at the G2/M phase checkpoint remains to be elucidated. The p53 protein is thought to prevent chromosomal replication specifically during the cell cycle if DNA damage is present. In addition, p53 can induce a type of programmed cell death, or apoptosis, under certain circumstances. The general goal of p53 appears to be the prevention of cell propagation if mutations are present. The p53 protein acts as a transcription factor by binding to certain specific genes and regulating their expression. One of these, WAF1 or Cip1, is activated by p53 and is an essential downstream mediator of p53-dependent G1/S phase checkpoint control. The function of p53 can be suppressed by another gene, MDM2, which is overexpressed in certain tumorigenic mouse cells and binds to p53 protein, thus inhibiting its transcriptional activation function. Other cellular proteins have been found to bind to p53, but the significance of the associations is not completely understood in all cases. The large number of human cancers in which the p53 gene is altered makes this gene a good candidate for cancer screening approaches.
