Question 1

What process indetifies individual chemical forms in water samples?

  • Bioassay
  • Speciation
  • Contamination

💡 Hint: Consider which term refers to a detailed analysis rather than a general one.

Question 2

True or False: Bioassays can determine toxicity even when individual chemicals are below toxic levels.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Imagine a water body contaminated by agricultural runoff and industrial waste. Describe how you would approach identifying the pollutants using both speciation and bioassays.

💡 Hint: Consider the sequential steps of identifying without direct human observation.

Question 2

Evaluate how the understanding of source apportionment could influence policy changes in water regulation. Provide real-life implications.

💡 Hint: Reflect on real changes that can stem from knowing who causes pollution.
