What is the product of 1 2/3 and -3 1/2

Biology
1 answer:
antiseptic1488 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

-5 5/6

Explanation:

So the same thing as the last question I answered, we have to multiply the top row and the bottom row. However, the fractions in the photo are actually mixed numbers so we first have to make them into improper fractions.

1 and 2/3 would be: 5/3

-3 and 1/2 would be: - 7/2

So now we have to multiply them:  5/3  * - 7/2:

Same steps: 5 * 7 = 35; 3 * 2 = 6:

- 35/6, or we could simplify and make it a mixed number so and also add the negative sign:

6 goes into 35 5 times so: -5 and 5/6 or -5 5/6

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Jonas Salk was awarded the Nobel Prize for discovering a way to vaccinate against  polio in the United States in the 1950's. This allowed millions of school-age children to  avoid crippling disease, and to swim during summer again, as polio was often spread in public swimming areas before.

The statement that best describes how the polio vaccine works is:

It triggers the immune system to produce antobodies to fight the disease-causing agent.

Explanation:

There are two main reasons for this answer. The first one is that every vaccine is aimed to introduce a controlled amount of antigenes to be accepted by the organism. These antigens are made after some studies were conducted in a lab and were obtained from substances that the human body can accept to train the immune system to develop an effective defense for the virus or bacteria on the matter. In our case, the polio vaccine works the same way and allowed to save many lives.

Question 2 of 9
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.  Light and some other factors are necessary for chlorophyll production

Explanation:

By this experiment, it is clear that light is the major factor that helps in the production of chlorophyll in seedlings or plants. In this study, placing the seeds in the light turns 75 seedlings green which is possible by the production of the green pigment, chlorophyll only. So, it is proved that light is a key factor in the production of chlorophyll.

Besides light, there must be some other factors (mineral nutrition and chemical metabolites) that also play role in the production of chlorophyll or increase or decrease of the chlorophyll production as few seedlings did not turn green in the study.
