उत्तर

Alligators v/s Crocodiles

The given table provides the distinguishing features between alligators and Crocodiles. While alligators have a U-shaped round snout, Crocodiles are found to have a V-shaped snout. The next difference is based on the habitat of these reptiles. While alligators are found only in fresh water, Crocodiles live in both fresh and saline waters. Alligators have wide jaws, wherein the upper jaw is wider than the lower jaw. As a result, only the teeth in the upper jaw are visible, when its mouth is closed. In Crocodiles however, both the jaws are relatively narrow and of the same size. Hence, both the teeth are visible when the mouth is closed. While Crocodiles have salt glands that are functional, alligators lack salt glands. The final difference between the two is based on the presence and location of sensory pits. In case of alligators, sensory pits are found on scales only near the jaw, whereas, in Crocodiles, these are found in every scale of its body.

Pollution is the contamination into the natural environment that causes adverse change. Pollution levels are increasing day by day. There are various reasons for it. Air pollution is caused chiefly by industrial pollutants and by increased levels of RSPM due to higher flow of vehicular traffic. Water pollution is caused to a large extent by industrial effluents and the immersion of POP idols. Sound pollution levels have increased due to blaring loudspeakers during festival time and increased volume of traffic.

We need to protect our forest and conserve our mangroves. In order to solve the problem of water pollution, we need to develop effective waste management techniques. Also eco-friendly idols should be used during festival time. An awareness in general populace is very necessary to solve the problem of sound pollution. Strict enforcement of decibel levels during occasions and festival time by the police is a must.
