Some organisms reproduce sexually. Other organisms reproduce asexually. What are some benefits of asexual reproduction?

1)In your own words explain what air pollution is

Anna11 [10]

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:

Coal
Crude oil
Natural gas

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.

How one rock can be transferred into either of the other rock type

mart [117]

Rocks can be classified in to three main groups - igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic. These three different rock types can be found in distinct areas of the UK.

Igneous rocks - these rocks are a result of volcanic activity in the past, when Britain was close to a plate boundary. Some of the igneous rocks are due to lava erupting at constructive plate boundaries. When the lava reached the surface, it cooled and solidified to form basalt rock. An example of this is the Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland.

Other rocks are formed by hot molten magma beneath the Earth's surface cooling and solidifying as an intrusive rock under the ground, such as granite. This is later exposed as the rocks above are weathered and eroded at the Earth’s surface.

Sedimentary rocks – these are made up of small particles of sand and rock, which have been transported by the wind, rivers and ice and are usually deposited on lake or seabed. Over many millions of years, successive layers of sediments accumulate. These layers of sediments are compressed by the weight of the deposits above, into sedimentary rocks. These rocks form in layers, known as bedding planes.

When sand is compressed it forms sandstone. When mud is compressed it becomes clay. Limestone and chalk come from the remains of dead plant, animal and marine species and are rich in calcium carbonate and contain fossils. Many of these rocks were formed over 300 million years ago, in warm tropical seas during the carboniferous period. The existence of these rocks is evidence that Britain was at a different latitude compared to today. This suggests movement of continental areas of the globe, which is explained by the modern theory of plate tectonics.

Metamorphic rocks - these are rocks that have been changed in shape and form by intense heat and pressure at a plate boundary or along a fault line. These rocks start as either igneous or sedimentary rocks and are crystallised under the intense heat and pressure conditions to form rocks such as slates, schists, and marble. These rocks are very hard in nature and are often used as roof material.

short answer

The three main rock types are igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary. The three processes that change one rock to another are crystallization, metamorphism, and erosion and sedimentation. Any rock can transform into any other rock by passing through one or more of these processes. This creates the rock cycle.

Which of the following statements about beta oxidation is FALSE?

blondinia [14]

Answer: A) It is a step in glycolysis.

Explanation: Glycolysis is the metabolic process through which glucose molecules are broken down, whereas β-oxidation is the catabolic process through which fatty acid molecules are broken down.
