<span>Carbon dioxide is a colorless and odorless gas that is vital to life on Earth. This naturally occurring chemical compound is made up of a carbon atom covalently double bonded to two oxygen atoms. Carbon dioxide exists in Earth's atmosphere as a trace gas at a concentration of about 0.04 percent by volume. Natural sources include volcanoes, hot springs and geysers, and it is freed from carbonate rocks by dissolution in water and acids. Because carbon dioxide is soluble in water, it occurs naturally in groundwater, rivers and lakes, in ice caps and glaciers and also in seawater. It is present in deposits of petroleum and natural gas.</span>
The clamming industry in Long Island used to be very lucrative, raking in as much as $100 Million annually. By the 1970s, it had shrunk to less that $40 million per annum.
<h3>What was to blame for the decline according to the article mentioned above?</h3>
2. According to the New York Times Article of 1985, the reason for the steep decline in the value of the Clamming industry was related to the loss of confidence in the health safety of eating raw shellfish.
3. According to the remarkable discovery of the "208 Study", it was discovered that there was a connection between land use and underground water quality. It was also discovered there was a negative impact of dumping sewers in the ocean on the production of shellfish
4. Some of the solutions that were proposed to manage this situation are:
- Using sewers to collect effluents into a septic treatment plant. rather than dumping them into the ocean.
- The implementation of secondary sewage treatment supplemented by ocean disposal of the effluents and
- Monitoring the salinity levels of the clamp ecosystem.

B is the answer to your question.
Genes have different variants, called alleles. Each individual possesses two alleles for each gene (one inherited from its father, and one from the individual's mother). Alleles can have different relations with each other, and some alleles have a stronger expression, dominating the determination of the trait in the individual.
In the case of codominance, both of the alleles are equally influential, so both of them are expressed in the individual.
The most famous example of codominance is in the A,B,O blood type alleles.
The A and B alleles are codominant, so when both of them are present in the individual, that individual expresses both A and B proteins, resulting in AB blood type.
