To find:
More about each of the 3 remedies for algal blooms.
Introduction:
HABs are known as the harmful algal blooms. The population explosions of single-celled bacteria and protists that are toxic are called as the algal blooms. These toxic populations of microorganism sicken people and kill fishes.
To find:

Introduction:
The population explosions of single-celled bacteria and protists that are toxic are called as the algal blooms. These toxic populations of microorganism sicken people and kill fishes. There are certain measures taken for these blooms.
To determine:
Which of the ways is applicable right now.
Introduction:
The population explosions of single-celled bacteria and protists that are toxic are called as the algal blooms. There are certain measures that are undertaken for these blooms.
To determine:
The cost and likely benefits of minimizing the algal blooms.
Introduction:
The population explosions of single-celled bacteria and protists that are toxic are called as the algal blooms. These algal blooms are responsible for making the aquatic environment harmful for the organisms or plants present in it. There can be certain measures which could be undertaken for minimizing these algal blooms and making the environment appropriate for various species to survive.

- Imagine you are a farm owner who uses pesticides to protect your crops. You have read articles on "superbugs" thus you are concerned about the potential effects of pesticide resistance. What is 1 strategy that you (the concerned farmer) could use to prevent pesticide resistance from occurring? * 近arrow_forwardGiven the Pro GM arguments, provide the counter arguments. Pro GM arguments counter arguments 1. GE is a safe and beneficial process, and extension of natural plant propagation 2. Reduce use of pesticides/herbicides 3. GE is a climate changfe solution 4.

Explain the significance of the variability of pathogens to the occurrence of plant diseases.arrow_forwardc) Suppose you count the number of seeds produced by milkweed plants in different habitats with variable numbers of herbivores present. Add trendlines to the graphs below to represent your hypothesized outcomes for fecundity relative to plant damage and latex production. 0.6 0.2 -0.2 -0.6 - -1 2.

- This week you were introduced to the concept of walkability and the impact that environmental pollution can have on chronic diseases. It can be easy to observe issues within your own community, but what can be challenging is to assess and compare your community or local environment to others. In this discussion, you will select one of two tools with which to evaluate your local community on either pollution or walkability. Look at the WalkscoreLinks to an external site and enter clark county or Las vegas, then click search. Afterwards on the leftside of screenthere is a list of scores: Walk, Transit and bike score and then below the walkscore is a brief description about this location. Walkability and bike-ability in a community has been tied to lower levels of chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. A transition to more mixed use city planning, which would increase population density and reduce reliance on single occupancy vehicles has been one part of…arrow_forwardDanish is preparing a plate of papaya (Carica papaya) for his sleepover friends. As he cuts open the papaya, they discover great numbers of slime-covered seed inside, surrounded by soft flesh and soft skin. Before papaya fruits ripen and the seeds inside them mature, their flesh is bitter or sour. Only later does it become tasty. Discuss how this feature improves the odds for the plant's reproductive success and identify the possible agents to disperse the seeds.arrow_forwardPrepare a summary of this article without distorting the message it wanted to convey For farmers, pesticides save labor and generally provide a higher yield: they can mean the difference between saving a crop and losing it to disease. Some farmers, especially those who grow produce at a smaller scale, use pesticides sparingly. For example, fruit trees are susceptible to disease in northeastern regions, especially at the blossom stage. An apple or peach grower may spray their fruit trees with a fungicide once in the spring to ensure that the fruit sets, but use no further chemicals for the rest of the season. For many large row crop farmers, on the other hand, regular pesticide use is as much a part of farming as planting seeds. Spraying Roundup on a field of corn genetically engineered to withstand the chemical kills! the weeds without affecting the corn. In comparison to mechanically weeding hundreds or thousands of acres, using pesticides is a game-changer. Some farmers spray their…arrow_forward
