YES
Scientists have developed biodegradable plastics by modifying the chemical composition of traditional nonbiodegradable plastics. These modifications allow the new plastics to break down more easily through natural processes, reducing their environmental impact.
DDT can be stored in fatty tissues of humans. In women who are pregnant, DDT exposure can occur even in the fetus.
There isn't a single chemical that directly replaced DDT, but rather a shift towards using integrated pest management techniques, including rotating different insecticides and using physical methods like traps. Some commonly used insecticides post-DDT include pyrethroids, neonicotinoids, and organophosphates.
DDT can have harmful effects on human health, including potential carcinogenic and endocrine-disrupting properties. Exposure to DDT has been linked to issues such as developmental delays, reproductive issues, and increased risk of certain cancers. It is important to avoid exposure to DDT through contaminated food or environmental sources to protect human health.
It is non-polar. There are no partial charges.
Yes.
its plastic
DDT is a pesticide.
DDT is an insecticide.
DDT is dichlorodiphenyltrichlorethane; biomagnification of DDT in some organisms is possible.
DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) is a strong insecticide.
DDT hasn't an odor.
DDT is dichlorodiphenyltrichlorethane.
DDT is not soluble in water.
Humans produce nonbiodegradable substances because of our advanced technology and industrial processes that involve creating synthetic materials like plastics, which are not easily broken down by natural processes. Other organisms do not produce as many nonbiodegradable substances because they rely on organic materials for their survival and reproduction.
No, paper will biodegrade (it is an organic material).
DDT was banned in the USA in 1972.
