Freshwater harmful algal blooms have the ability to produce toxins that are dangerous to other organisms as in livestock , humans , and dogs .

The two harmful ways are:

Local asphyxia of the environment (impact on marine biodiversity): The algae would constitute a sufficiently thick film to prevent the light from penetrating and thus limit the photosynthetic activity of the vegetation during a period of growth. The algae would therefore limit the extension of salt meadows. In addition, algae are degraded by aerobic bacteria causing significant oxygen consumption and the production of sulfur compounds (hydrogen sulphide in particular) resulting in a decrease in the biodiversity of the marine marsh. It can no longer play its purifying role, thus favoring the arrival of other pollutants in the marine environment.

Impacts on fauna (for example, birdlife): During periods of green tides, ulva cover areas exploited by birds in search of food. For example, passerines may have less access to insects usually found in the marine marsh and waders with burrowing shells and worms buried in the sand.

Cancer is often characterized by tumors. Which would most likely trigger the formation of a tumor?
Komok [63]

Answer:

The correct answer is b a mutation in a gene that codes for protein regulating cell division.

Explanation:

Cancer is a disease that result due unregulated cell divison.There are many tumor suppressor protein present in our body such as retinoblastoma tumor suppressor protein,p53 protein.

     These tumor suppressor protein helps to carry out cell divison in a regulated fashion and send signal for division only to that cell that have undamaged DNA.

   Mutation in the gene encoding tumor suppressor protein leads to development of cancer.

An element has 2 valence electrons and 3 energy levels. It is located in<br> group
kodGreya [7K]

Answer: 3

Explanation:

All elements in group 3 have 3 levels of energy.

Na (sodium) has 3 valences the inner has 2 electrons, the middle has 8 electrons and the outer has 1 electron.

This will continue across the group 3 adding one more electron to the outer valence until Ar (argon).

Remember the Octet rule of 8..?
