plastissisäisiä
Plastissisäisiä refers to the presence of plastic particles within the digestive tracts of organisms. This phenomenon is a significant concern within the field of environmental science, particularly in relation to marine and freshwater ecosystems. These plastic fragments can range in size from macroscopic pieces down to microscopic or even nanoscopic particles, commonly known as microplastics and nanoplastics.
Organisms ingest plastissisäisiä through various pathways. In aquatic environments, this often occurs when animals mistake plastic
The consequences of plastissisäisiä are multifaceted. Physical effects can include blockages in the digestive system, a
