1. 10%
2. NOx and SO2 or nitrous oxides and sulfur dioxide
3. Um I think this means the organism is a hermaphrodite but like.. first they're female and then they turn male?

1. the main difference is what the water is used for afterwards. in potable water treatment, its meant to be consumed so the water must be a lot cleaner than wastewater treatment in which water normally goes back out to the environment


2. by glaciers


3. im not really sure but maybe flamingo tongue snails and gorgonia since the snail scrapes polyps off leaving feeding scars on the coral. idk maybe this is more like predation/herbivory but i cant think of any other example of parasitism...

Yeah for the last one it isn't really a parasitic relationship but that was a question on a test I took once (asking what organism flamingo-tongued snails had a parasitic relationship with).
