One day at  early morning Dinesh went at long walk on beach area of Mumbai  where he observed that many aquatic animals have put died on the bank and a oil loaded ship was in accidental situation at the mid of ocean. Microbiologists were at rescue operation. They were spraying the culture of some bacteria on water surface.

  1. How did the aquatic animal died due to oil spill.
  2. Name the bacteria which used in spray.

Dear student, 1= Oil spills frequently kill marine animals like whale or dolphins or seals as they clog their blowholes making it impossible for to breathe. And they also coat their fur leaving them vulnerable to hypothermia. 2=Bacteria used will be- Alcanivorax borkumensis. Hope this information helps, Regards.
