Recently, scientists have become concerned that bees are dying in large numbers. One of the primarysuspects has been a new kind of pesticide. Now, other researchers are investigating the potentialtoxicity of metal pollution on bees.Soil may become contaminated by exhaust from vehicles, industrial machinery, and farming equipment.In a study that allowed bees to forage from flowers that were uncontaminated or contaminated withnickel and aluminum, bees avoided the flowers that were contaminated with nickel. However, the beesdid not discriminate against the flowers that were contaminated with aluminum. This may indicate thatthe bees foraged in the past on aluminum-contaminated flowers and had become tolerant or immune tothe aluminum. The results of the study may have implications for phytoremediation, the practice ofgrowing plants on polluted soil to remove contaminants.1. Which are the effects of metal toxicity of metal pollution in bees?2. What is phytoremediation? Is it environmentally friendly and well tolerated by humans livingnearby?3.Is phytoremediation well tolerated by pollinators such as bees that visit the flowers growing incontaminated soil? Or quite the opposite? Explain.4.Do you think the benefits of phytoremediation outweigh its risks?

True or False 1. Plants also has the need to circulate its products, nutrients and minerals to survive. 2. Higher forms of animals has a complex system of circulation that needs special organs to do the work. 3. Transpiration in plants drives the absorption of water. 4. Circulation in plants primarily done with the presence of a two chambered heart; phloem and xylem. 5. In animals, the primary function of circulatory system is to provide only the needed nutrients and minerals for the heart and lungs.
