Mercury is poison to almost any living thing that ingests it do to what its made of it can cause deformations of cells, Illness and even death plus
Answer:
Metallic mercury is not as harmful as some mercury compounds, after all dentists have used silver/mercury amalgams for years with little problem. Environmental contamination usually involves the production of organic mercury compound like methyl mercury when bacteria act on metallic mercury in sludges The organic mercury can be more readily absorbed by living organisms and passed up the food chain. It bio-concentrates in higher predators (e.g. game fish) until it is eaten by people or causes health problems for the fish.
Mercury concentrations in the environment have serious repercussions for humans. Ingestion of mercury through fish or skin contact can inhibit the growth of myelin in children and developing fetuses.
Mercury is found in both naturally and as an introduced contaminant in the environment. Mercury enters the environment by many ways. It can enter the environment naturally, by an ore, or by manmade. The cinnabar is the ore in which red mercury comes from. The cinnabar comes out with a volcanic activity, and alkaline hot springs. Cinnabar can also bee mined. Mercury can enter the environment in two ways; one way is by the air. Mercury enters the environment through the air as a result of emissions from industrial plants. The other way it enters the environment is by industrial waste fluids. Mercury usually comes out from emissions from coal-fired power plants, waste incinerators, and commercial boilers or furnaces that burn mercury-containing materials.
Some materials like plastic are bad for the environment.
Elmer's glue is not bad for the environment.
Yes they're very bad for the environment
Large fish, like tuna and swordfish absorb mercury fron environment. Humans and cats then eat the fish. Human waste finds its way back to the sea and is re-absorbed by the fish. So mercury is never truly cleaned out of the environment.
The freezing point of mercury is -38,8290 0C.The boiling point of mercury is 356,73 0C.The temperature of mercury indoor or outdoor is the temperature of the environment.
because it uses electisity which is bad for the environment

The atmosphere and extreme environment of Mercury means that there are no recreational locations.
Mercury has no atmosphere so it is EXTREMELY hot in sunny side and EXTREMELY cold in parts of the planet
yes
