physical hazard affects you physically but a biological or chemical hazard affect you from within. Physical hazards may cause injuries such as broken leg, cuts, wounds, etc. while biological/chemical hazards can cause injuries such as choking, inability to breath, internal bleeding .

Compare the use of chemical and biological control of pest?

Biological control takes more roll in Integrated pest Management system where we are adopting the natural based methods inclusive of of Mechanical, Physical, Agronomical control methods, besides the Bio-control methods. comparatively the chemical control methods led to the following adverse effects which can be prevented by adopting Bio-control measures. 1.Creating Resistance power on Pests 2. creation of resurgence power , 3, poisoning the plant products(Foodgrains, fodders like straw) so that it make ill effect on human's and live stock's health 4. polluting the Air, Water, Soil, 5. Chemical control Very expensive than Bio control methods


What is the science that deals with the dynamics of the ocean?

Generally, the study of oceans is Oceanography. Specifically, the study of waves and currents is Physical Oceanography, one of the four branches of Oceanography; Physical, Chemical, Biological, and Geological. The study of waves and currents is often confused with Astronomy, since they are caused by the moon; however, the study of the effect is classified under Physical Oceanography.

What is the effect of heat and cold?

Heat can cause expansion of materials, increase in molecular movement, and chemical reactions to occur more readily. Cold can cause contraction of materials, decrease in molecular movement, and slow down chemical reactions. Both heat and cold can impact the physical, chemical, and biological properties of substances.

Is the greenhouse effect biological?

No, it is primarily physical. Biological events 300 to 100 million years ago pulled carbon from the atmosphere and locked it up at the bottom of vast swamps, which formed our modern coal and oil deposits. But the burning of that coal and oil is not considered a biological effect. The excess CO2 in our atmosphere is not of biological origin in that sense. Some excess methane gas, however, IS from direct biological sources.
