How Acid Rain affect our environment? (Answer)

  Acid rain is a type of precipitation that has a lower pH than normal rainwater, typically between 4.2 and 4.4. It is caused by the release of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides into the atmosphere, which react with water, oxygen, and other substances to form sulfuric and nitric acids. These acids then fall to the ground in rain, snow, sleet, or fog. Acid rain can seriously affect the environment... When it falls to the ground, it can make the soil more acidic, which can harm or kill plants and trees. Acid rain can also acidify bodies of water, affecting the pH of the water and the species that live in it. Acid rain can also corrode buildings, statues, and other structures made of stone or metal One of the major sources of acid rain is the burning of fossil fuels, such as coal and oil, which releases large amounts of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides into the air. These substances can then be carried long distances by wind and can cause acid rain to fall far from the point of origin.

Define Monkeypox and it's Symptoms, Treatment and Prevention

Monkeypox is a rare viral disease that is similar to smallpox. It is caused by the monkeypox virus, which is a member of the same family of viruses as the smallpox virus. However, monkeypox is generally less severe than smallpox and has a lower mortality rate. The monkeypox virus is found primarily in certain regions of Central and West Africa, where it is transmitted to humans through contact with infected animals, such as rodents or primates. It can also be transmitted from person to person through close contact, such as through respiratory droplets or through direct contact with infected bodily fluids. Symptoms of monkeypox  Typically begin to appear within 3 to 12 days of infection and may include fever, headache, muscle aches, and chills. A rash may also develop, which typically begins on the face and spreads to other parts of the body. The rash may eventually blister and crust over. Other symptoms may include lymph node swelling, eye irritation, and difficulty breathing. Treatmen
