The curve below shows the percentage of population of aquatic species that die in response to doses of pollutant A, a toxic substance.
A local manufacturing plant reports a spill that released pollutant A into the local watershed. Local officials must determine if the residents should be evacuated from the area. Initial groundwater samples show pollutant levels at 20 mg/kg of water. Which decision is supported by the empirical evidence provided by the dose-response curve?
- Evacuation is not needed; continue groundwater monitoring.
- Residents should be evacuated until levels decrease.
- The spill no longer needs to be monitored.
- Residents should only evacuate above LD50.

Plzzz hurry im being timed ! humans, like other organisms, require energy for growth and repair. when cells create atp for energy, carbon dioxide is produced as a waste product. how does the body respond to this process in order to maintain homeostasis? a. the digestive and respiratory systems interact to move carbon dioxide to the lower intestine, where it is transformed into methane. b. the circulatory and digestive systems interact to move carbon dioxide to the stomach, where it to break down food. c. the nervous and urinary systems interact to move carbon dioxide to the kidneys, where it is absorbed into the bloodstream. d. the circulatory and respiratory systems interact to transport carbon dioxide to the lungs, where it is expelled from the body.
