In excreted urine, a reliable "marker" that a pregnancy has initiated is human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG).

<h3>What is human chorionic gonadotropin?</h3>
  • The trophoblast cells that surround a developing embryo.
  • Eventually give rise to the placenta after implantation generate the hormone known as human chorionic gonadotropin, which helps women recognize pregnancy.
  • Some pregnancy tests can detect the HCG's presence.
  • The placenta secretes a hormone known as human chorionic gonadotropin throughout pregnancy (HCG).
  • It tells the body to stop menstruation and makes the uterine lining thicker to support an embryo in development.
  • After fertilization, HCG levels increase and stay elevated for another 10 weeks or more of pregnancy.
  • As accurate as blood tests are urine testing.
  • An individual is pregnant if their HCG level is high.
  • An individual is not pregnant if a qualitative HCG test is negative.
  • After a few days, a person should repeat the test if they still believe they are pregnant.

Why does acid rain adamage mountain lebrty
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

When sulfurous, sulfuric, and nitric acids in polluted air and rain react with the calcite in marble and limestone, the calcite dissolves. In exposed areas of buildings and statues, we see roughened surfaces, removal of material, and loss of carved details. Stone surface material may be lost all over or only in spots that are more reactive.

Explanation:

You might expect that sheltered areas of stone buildings and monuments would not be affected by acid precipitation. However, sheltered areas on limestone and marble buildings and monuments show blackened crusts that have peeled off in some places, revealing crumbling stone beneath. This black crust is primarily composed of gypsum, a mineral that forms from the reaction between calcite, water, and sulfuric acid. Gypsum is soluble in water; although it can form anywhere on carbonate stone surfaces that are exposed to sulfur dioxide gas (SO2), it is usually washed away. It remains only on protected surfaces that are not directly washed by the rain.

Why are the colors different on the planet at different times of the year ? Give a specific example.
Reptile [31]

Answer:

In the Northern Hemisphere, ecosystems wake up in the spring, taking in carbon dioxide and exhaling oxygen as they sprout leaves — and a fleet of Earth-observing satellites tracks the spread of the newly green vegetation.

Meanwhile, in the oceans, microscopic plants drift through the sunlit surface waters and bloom into billions of carbon dioxide-absorbing organisms — and light-detecting instruments on satellites map the swirls of their color.

Satellites have measured the Arctic getting greener, as shrubs expand their range and thrive in warmer temperatures. Observations from space help determine agricultural production globally, and are used in famine early warning detection. As ocean waters warm, satellites have detected a shift in phytoplankton populations across the planet's five great ocean basins — the expansion of "biological deserts" where little life thrives. And as concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere continue to rise and warm the climate, NASA's global understanding of plant life will play a critical role in monitoring carbon as it moves through the Earth system.
