In response to the infesta tion, farmers treat the land with organochlorine pesticides. As a result of the treatment, the population of Japanese beetles is eradicated within the cropland, along with the popula- tions of multiple other insect species. Which of the following statements explains the most likely reason for the death of so many insect populations? Organochlorine pesticides are persistent organic pollutants that interfere with the respi- ratory system of the insect populations. Organochlorine pesticides are endocrine disruptors that interfere with the growth hor- mones of the insect populations. Organochlorine pesticides are persistent organic pollutants and interfere with the re- productive organs of the insect populations. Organochlorine pesticides are endocrine disruptors that interfere with the transmission of nerve impulses, resulting in spasms, seizures, and death of the insect populations.arrow_forwardGoofy Incorporated bought a sizeable amount of Crazy Company's bonds for $200,000 on May 5, 2023, and classified the investment as available-for-sale.

- Use the information below to answer questions 1- 3. PCI,(g) 2 PCI;(g) + Cl2(8) PCI,(g) decomposes into PCI,(g) and Cl,(8) according to the equation above. A pure sample of PCI,(g) is placed in a rigid, evacuated 1.00 L container. The initial pressure of the PCI5(g) is 1.00 atm. The temperature is held constant until the PCI,(g) reaches equilibrium with its decomposition products. The figures below show the initial and equilibrium conditions of the system. PCI5 Potal = 1.00 atm PCI5, PCI3, and CI, Prstal = 1.40 atm Figure 1: Initial Figure 2: Equilibrium As the reaction progresses toward equilibrium, the rate of the forward reaction (A) increases until it becomes the same as the reverse reaction rate at equilibrium (B) stays constant before and after equilibrium is reached (C) decreases to become a constant nonzero rate at equilibrium (D) decreases to become zero at equilibrium If the decomposition reaction were to go to completion, the total pressure in the container would be (A) 1.4…arrow_forwardWhich statement best describes the cause of the Earth's warming in recent decades? Which one is it? 1. Volcanic eruptions have increased in frequency, causing more greenhouse gases to be emitted. 2. The sun has become brighter, causing the planet to absorb more heat. 3. Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide have increased in concentration. This has prevented some of the radiation that normally leaves the Earth's atmosphere from leaving, causing the temperature l to increase. 4. The species of plant that normally absorb sunlight have undergone genetic mutations, causing them to emit heat rather than absorb it.arrow_forwardWrite down some of the benefits and drawbacks of going green.
