One of the major concerns about seawater desalination is its high expense. Another concern is the disposal of leftover brine from the desalination process back into the ocean, which harms marine life. Discuss whether these two concerns are enough to prohibit the widespread use of desalination as a source of drinking water.

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Yes, these two concerns are enough to prohibit the use of desalination as a source of drinking water because this method is too expensive as well as bad for the marine environment. First, this desalination process is too expensive which is non-economical for the country while on the other hand, it greatly damaged the aquatic animals so this method must be stopped due to its adverse effect on both economics as well as environment.

In addition to deep sea organisms, there are many species found throughout the ocean. The numbers and relative proportions of Bacteria and Archaea change with depth in response to changing conditions. Viruses that infect the prokaryotic organisms play a variety of important roles in this habitat, including control of their overall numbers and facilitation of horizontal gene transfer. Choose whether each statement best describes bacteria, archaea, or viruses.

a. Most are inactivated by hydrolytic enzymes or sunlight,
b. Turnover in seawater is relatively rapid; the populations are replaced within a few days or weeks.
c. They are the predominant prokaryotes above 1000 m.
d. Most of these living below 1000 m are thought to be ammonia oxidizers.
e. Below 1000 m the most common phylum is Thaumarchaeota.
f. They increase to near 50% of total prokaryotes below 1000 m.
