pollution includes...

check all that apply

• Light

• Sound

• Invasive species

• Thermal energy

• Erinn's music and also organic and inorganic substances

which describes point source pollution

• Release of pollutants from numerous or widely dispersed origins (eg. Exhaust pipes from cars)

• - Release of pollutants from a single identifiable site (eg. Factory chimney)

  - More easily managed as it is easier to control emissions, manage effect, apportion responsibility, take legal action

which described non-point source pollution

• - Release of pollutants from numerous or widely dispersed origins (eg. Exhaust pipes from cars)

• - Release of pollutants from a single identifiable site (eg. Factory chimney)

  - More easily managed as it is easier to control emissions, manage effect, apportion responsibility, take legal action

would erinn's music be described point source or non point source pollution?

• point source-

  Release of pollutants from a single identifiable site - (erinn's laptop)

  
  

  More easily managed as it is easier to control emissions, manage effect, apportion responsibility, take legal action

  (against erinn)

• non point-source -Release of pollutants from numerous or widely dispersed origins (everywhere billie eilish's music plays)

• billie eilish is good

define biodegradable pollutant

check all that apply

• • Resistant to breaking down and remain active in environment for long time

• • Could be broken down by decomposers or physical processes (eg. Light, heat)

• • Biomagnify in food chains and can cause serious harm

• • Do not persist in environment and break down quickly

check all that apply to persistent organic pollutant

• Resistant to breaking down and remain active in environment for long time

• Used to be used as pesticides

• Biomagnify in food chains and can cause serious harm

• Bioaccumulate in animal and human tissues

• Could be broken down by decomposers or physical processes (eg. Light, heat)

select what applies to chronic pollution

• Long term release of pollutant in small amounts

• Often spreads widely

• Usually difficult to clean up

• Often goes undetected for a long time

• When large amounts of a pollutant are released over a short time period and cause a lot of harm
