Pollution

Population density is determined by two things: the total population in a given are being studied and the size of that given area. We just do a little math with the numbers to obtain an answer. We generally talk about population density for, say, people, in terms of number of inhabitants per square mile, but certainly there are other measures that can be used. Spiders might be studied based on estimates of the number of them per acre. (Yes, really.) The math is simple. Figure out what units the area will be expressed in, such as square miles, acres, etc., and then take the population over the total area being studies and "reduce" the fraction to obtain an answer. If we have estimates of 50,000 people living across 10 square miles, then we'd compute that there was a population density of 5,000 people per square mile.

Acid rain can lower the pH of the water in aquatic biomes, making it more acidic. This can harm aquatic organisms such as fish, amphibians, and invertebrates by disrupting their physiological functions, damaging their gills, and affecting their reproductive success. It can also degrade habitats and reduce biodiversity in these ecosystems.

Excessive sediment in water can clog fish gills, restricting their ability to breathe. Sediment can also smother fish eggs, reducing reproductive success. Additionally, sediment can block sunlight penetration, inhibiting aquatic plant growth and disrupting the aquatic food chain.

Acid rain is different to regular rain as it contains compounds of nitric oxide and other gases that have combined with water vapour in rain clouds to become acid rain...at least, i think so : )

Places with low population density, limited industrial activity, and strict environmental regulations tend to have the least pollution. This can include rural areas, national parks, and remote islands. Additionally, regions with abundant green spaces and clean energy sources can also have lower pollution levels.

Carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and water vapor (H2O) are the major greenhouse gases that trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere. They contribute to the greenhouse effect, which is essential for maintaining Earth's temperature necessary for supporting life.

Ocean pollution affects animals because many animals can get choked in six pack soda packs also sea turtles can mistake plastic bags for jelly fish.

Companies and factories are responsible for water pollution because they dump whatever they want in rivers lakes and oceans because they feel like it and they kill tons of fish and make water undrinkable and unable to use for anything no matter what it is so why do companies pollute if they are just effecting them selves.

Stumpy Lake is a 1,422-acre property located in the city of Virginia Beach. The problems caused by the shopping mall are the pollution of the vehicles traveling to and from there, the litter from shoppers and the energy from the building.

There are various types of pollution, including air pollution, water pollution, soil pollution, noise pollution, and light pollution. Each type of pollution has different sources and impacts on the environment and human health.

Pollution occurs due to various human activities such as industrial processes, transportation, and agriculture that release harmful substances into the environment. These pollutants can contaminate air, water, and soil, leading to detrimental impacts on human health, ecosystems, and climate. Stricter regulations, sustainable practices, and increased public awareness are essential in reducing pollution levels.

The pH scale relates to the acidity (or otherwise) of a solution, & what determines how acidic a solution is is the concentration of hydrogen ions the solution contains. I forget the details of how or why, but it was worked out that the difference in hydrogen ion concentrations in typical solutions could vary by a factor of 1014, and that in a neutral solution the hydrogen ion concentration is 1.0 x 10-7, with more acidic solutions going up to a concentration of 1.0 x 10-1 and more basic solutions going down to 1.0 x 10-13. But these figures are quite a mouthful to either say or write, and so the pH scale was introduced; remembering that 1.0 x 10-7 was the neutral concentration, 7 was put in the middle of the scale, with the figures going up & down on either side.

I don't know an exact number but i think it would be at least 3/4 of the population in boston. and please recommend me.

Trash can pose health hazards to people if not handled properly. Improper disposal of trash can lead to contamination of water sources, spread of diseases, and attract pests that can transmit illnesses. It is important to manage and dispose of trash responsibly to protect public health.

A nutrient pollution is one of the most widespread, challenging and costly environmental problem in the United States of America today. Too much phosphorous and nitrogen in the water and air is the cause of this dilemma.

Dry air is made up (by volume) of Nitrogen (N2) 78.084%, Oxygen (O2) 20.946%, Argon (Ar) 0.9340%, Carbon Dioxide (CO2) 0.03697%, and trace bits of a few other gases.

Since these are percent volume numbers the simple multiplication of each by 10 gives the millilitre or cm3 value directly: Nitrogen (N2) 780.84 ml, Oxygen (O2) 209.46ml, Argon (Ar) 9.340ml, Carbon Dioxide (CO2) 0.3697ml

Approximately 91% of the world's population lives in areas where air quality exceeds the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines for pollutants, leading to health risks such as respiratory diseases and cardiovascular issues.

Catalytic converters reduce pollution by converting harmful gases like carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and hydrocarbons into less harmful substances like carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and water vapor through a series of chemical reactions. This process helps to lower emissions of these pollutants from vehicles and other machinery, thereby reducing their impact on the environment.

Industrial pollutants from China's increasingly robust use of coal are plating out across the globe, including here in Alaska, brought here by storms crossing the Pacific Ocean transporting tons of airborne chemicals that shower onto coastal waters and inland where it they end up in the local food chain, according to scientists studying the phenomenon.

The scientists doing their sciency thing can study the pollutants to find the original source, which is why they can say as a certainty the pollution in Alaska is coming from China. As well, they are attempting to measure the percentage of overall pollution in the United States coming from China, and the numbers are a little frightening.

A Scientific American article published online this week noted that a brown cloud leaving China is visible from space 'and takes about a week to cross the Pacific to the western U.S., where it accounts for as much as 15 percent of the air pollution.'

There are serious implication for life is a body of water is affected by thermal pollution. Any sea life living in the water can be killed off. This will impact the food chain. Any changes to the Earth have the ability to impact all forms of life.

Chemtrail conspiracy theories have been debunked by scientific evidence. Various studies have shown that the substances in contrails - not chemtrails - are normal byproducts of aircraft engine combustion. To stay healthy, it's important to focus on maintaining good overall health through proper diet, hydration, exercise, and avoiding exposure to genuine harmful substances like air pollution.

Styrofoam is not biodegradable and can take hundreds of years to decompose, leading to significant pollution in landfills and oceans. The exact amount of pollution caused by Styrofoam is difficult to quantify, but it is a major contributor to environmental degradation due to its widespread use and improper disposal.

to help the environment i would do a lot of things like kepping up the crash and litter stuff and also not ride a car. car is a major factor in pollution which is a big issue right now in earth. people can also volunteer to environment helping jobs.

Phosphorus enters the environment from rocks or deposits laid down on the earth many years ago. The phosphate rock is commercially available form is called apatite. Other deposits may be from fossilized bone or bird droppings called guano. Weathering and erosion of rocks gradually releases phosphorus as phosphate ions which are soluble in water. Land plants need phosphate as a fertilizer or nutrient.Phosphate is incorporated into many molecules essential for life such as ATP, adenosine triphosphate, which is important in the storage and use of energy. It is also in the backbone of DNA and RNA which is involved with coding for genetics.
