For many years initially in the 1980’s as the result of air pollution the concern of acid rain came to great attention. Even though there were procedures in order to reduce these emissions we are still facing the effects today.
As you already may know, the major release of this air pollution is because sadfof the burning of fossil fuels alongside all the chemicals produced with it. Car exhausts burn petrol and the smoke that is released doesn’t just simply disappear and the sooty grey particles are not the only outcome of this but the invisible gasses which essentially is ruining our environment.
These invisible gasses are mainly sulphur and carbon dioxide where the sources of these pollutants are uncountable ranging from factories to as discussed …show more content…
These researchers investigate the effect of synthesized acid rain and fir and pine (McColl and Johnson 125). The researchers discovered that when the synthesized acid rain reached pH levels below 2.0, there were significant reductions in the germination of such plants (McColl and Johnson 127). Additionally, some of the germination rates in certain firs and pines were reduced by up to 32 percent (McColl and Johnson 125). Also, there were related problems to the plants that were exposed to the acid rain with pH levels below 2.0. The plants appeared to have problems absorbing and utilizing the water, making many of the plants wilt, dry up, and even die (McColl and Johnson …show more content…
With a considerable amount of Mung pea life in the Acton, London area, it is important to discover the specific effects of acid rain on such plants. This study proposes to use a simulated acid rain effect on the germination and growth of Mung pea seeds. The seeds used in this study are exposed to water that has been treated to mimic specific acid rain. The pH levels used in this study are 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, and 7.0. By running cross-analyses of the data collected on the growth of these seeds, a determination can be made concerning the specific effects of the water samples with differing pH
