Scientoon on the reaction of Mosquito on Plastic Pollution
Group of three scientist (Rana Al-Jaibachi, Ross N. Cuthbert, and Amanda Callaghan) from UK found that the microplastic, a very common pollutant is not only polluting ecosystem but it is transferring ontogenically from a feeding (larva) into a non-feeding (pupa) life stage and subsequently into the adult terrestrial life stage.
Kindly found the cartoon based on above research.
