A primary pollutant is an air pollutant emitted directly from a source.

A secondary pollutant is not directly emitted as such, but forms when other pollutants (primary pollutants) react in the atmosphere.

Examples of a secondary pollutant include ozone, which is formed when hydrocarbons (HC) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) combine in the presence of sunlight; NO2, which is formed as NO combines with oxygen in the air; and <em><u>acid rain</u></em>, which is formed when sulfur dioxide or nitrogen oxides react with water.

Hope this helps:)

To kill the white pine blister, the forestry department decided to apply pesticide to the trees. They must directly apply the se
Stels [109]

The Forestry Department is using a <u>chemical</u> control method. This involves using a <u>foliar spray </u>method, in which department personnel will spray pesticide directly on the trees’ leaves.

Explanation:

The chemical control method of pesticide control involves spraying chemical pesticides directly on leaves, shoots or roots of the plants. These chemicals are toxic to the pests only and the pests get retracted from the plants because of the pesticides applied.

A selective pesticide application is done to limit application to a target harmful pest which kills only that and does not harm the other useful or harmless species which thrives on the plants.

White pine blister causes rust of the branches and leaves of the pine trees. Hence, a foliar spray of the pesticide is done to control its spread.

Which of the following lists the rocks in the order of increasing grain size and increasing grade of metamorphism? schist, slate
vodomira [7]

Answer:

From lowest to highest grade,

Slate > Phyllite >Schist

Explanation:

The grade of metamorphism is usually studied in the metamorphic type of rocks where the rocks are formed due to the high pressure and temperature condition. These rocks are formed in a sequence from a lower grade to a higher grade. Here the low-grade rocks gradually change to more hard and resistant rock when subjected to extreme pressure-temperature conditions.

In the above, there are 3 metamorphic rock names gives, which can be arranged from a lower grade to higher grade. Slate is a low-grade metamorphic rock that changes into Phyllite, another medium-grained metamorphic rock. This Phyllite again alters to Schist under extreme pressure-temperature conditions.
