Welcome to your Module 5 EN

Ecotoxicology is an applied science that:

Which of the Omics technologies is used to identify and quantify proteins in a cell?

Metagenomics is used to analyse the genetic diversity of microorganisms only in aquatic ecosystems.

Omics techniques require multiple samples for genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics analyses.

Metabolomics focuses on the analysis of genes involved in the cell's energy production.

The application of omics technologies to aquatic ecosystem is related to:

RNA-Seq is a genomic analysis technique based on DNA sequencing.

Ecotoxicology combines the fields of toxicology and ecology to identify, analyse, and predict the effects of environmental pollutants on living organisms and ecosystems.

Adverse outcome pathways (AOPs) and source outcome pathways (STOs) are crucial measurable levels in environmental risk assessment studies at all biological organization levels.

The discovery of DDT's impact on the eggshells of American bald eagles in the mid-twentieth century was unrelated to the development of ecotoxicology as a scientific field.
