what is the purpose of the implementation of GHS? Select the correct response: To minimize the cost of putting up multiple chemical labels per economic or geographic bloc. To eliminate the need to translate chemical labels from one language to another. To establish a central authority that will dictate the full compliance of member states of the United Nations. To have a uniform chemical hazard communication system across a global platform. To generate more revenue for chemical manufacturers and distributors

A large population of Japanese beetles infests a plot of cropland. In response to the infesta tion, farmers treat the land with organochlorine pesticides. As a result of the treatment, the population of Japanese beetles is eradicated within the cropland, along with the popula- tions of multiple other insect species. Which of the following statements explains the most likely reason for the death of so many insect populations? Organochlorine pesticides are persistent organic pollutants that interfere with the respi- ratory system of the insect populations. Organochlorine pesticides are endocrine disruptors that interfere with the growth hor- mones of the insect populations. Organochlorine pesticides are persistent organic pollutants and interfere with the re- productive organs of the insect populations. Organochlorine pesticides are endocrine disruptors that interfere with the transmission of nerve impulses, resulting in spasms, seizures, and death of the insect populations.

Some greenhouse gases, such as fluorocarbons (CFCs, HFCs, PFCs, etc.), are human-made. Others, such as water, methane, and carbon dioxide, are naturally produced. Which type of greenhouse gas (human-made or natural) is more difficult to control and eliminate? Which types are easier? In three to five sentences, provide evidence for your argument.
Which of the following statements about the BOD test is FALSE? A BOD test is a simple and practical indicator of the total organic content that is available to organisms plus any chemicals that spontaneously react with oxygen. B BOD test measures the oxygen consumed by microorganisms as they break down organic material There is an indirect correlation between the BOD5 value and the level of organic pollutants. The standard test for BOD is the five-day (BOD5) test carried out in the dark at 20 °C
