Chapter 9, Week 3 TRUE-FALSE STATEMENTS __F__ 1. All plant assets (fixed assets) must be depreciated for accounting purposes. ___F_ 2. When purchasing land, the costs for clearing, draining, filling, and grading should be charged to a Land Improvements account. ___F_ 3.
This list is used to score a sites potential risk to human health. If a site ranks high on this list it does not necessarily mean immediate action will be taken. After being placed on the National Priorities list, a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study is conducted in order to; “characterize the sites conditions, determine the nature of the waste, assess risk to human health and the environment, and evaluate the potential performance and cost of the treatment technologies that are being considered” (United States Environmental Protection Agency, 2011). Following the completion of the Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study is the Record of Decision. This is a public document that defines which cleanup methods will be utilized.

3) What does the taproot system do? Often stores organic nutrients that the plant consumes during flowering and fruit production. 4) Why are root crops such as carrots, turnips, and sugar beets harvested before they flower? Because the taproot system stores organic nutrients in the root part. 5) What is the system where no roots stand out as the main one?

Protection may include identifying: Measures for communicating health and safetyMeasures for reporting Accidents or health Problems Measures for first aid, fire and emergencies The significant risks- Control measures for hazards The Food hygiene regulation 2005, explains the responsibilities, involved in handling food safely in order to avoid contamination and food poisoning. The Environmental protection act 1990h describes the responsibilities involved in handling clinical wastes in order to prevent harm to the environment. The Control of
In June of 2000 the cap requirements were changed from a multi-media cap to a geosynthetic clay cap. OU2’s elements were ground water removal via on-site extraction wells, ground water treatment (air stripping) for removal of VOC’s, discharge to a local water treatment plant and continued monitoring. In 2005 an amended report eliminated the removal and treatment part and, instead, replaced it with an injection of vegetable oil as a bioremediation of the VOC’s with monitoring. OU’3 excavation and stabilization of contaminated soils, on-site disposal of the stabilized soil, installation of a low permeability cap over the treated soil, placement of one foot of topsoil over the remainder of the uncapped site and placement of controls. The clean up approach for OU4 was to allow the clean up of the other operable units to address the contamination of the wetlands.
a) Biotic describes a living component of a community; for example organisms, such as plants and animals. b) abiotic components (also known as abiotic factors) are non-living chemical and physical factors in the environment which affect ecosystems. c) Herbivores are organisms that are anatomically and physiologically adapted to eat plant-based foods. Herbivory is a form of consumption in which an organism principally eats autotrophs such as plants, algae and photosynthesizing bacteria. More generally, organisms that feed on autotrophs in general are known as primary consumers.
Plants are the producers for an ecosystem. They photosynthesise carbon dioxide and water and produce energy in the form of carbohydrates and other molecules. Photosynthesis requires water, and plants gain water from the soil using mineral ions such as nitrate produced by the nitrifying bacteria. Hydrolysis of ATP releases energy for processes such as active transport of the nitrate ions (and others such as potassium etc) from the soil into root hair cells, a process that lowers water potential and is used to draw water into the plant from the soil. In leaves, photosynthesis involves the photolysis of water, a process that involves the attachment of two electrons to a magnesium ion in chlorophyll and the production of hydrogen ions from the breakdown of water.
