While a home was undergoing a renovation, workers discovered that there was asbestos in the walls. Before any further work could

be attempted, the family that owned the house had to evacuate, and specialists were brought in to remove the asbestos. Why would the house contain a substance that forced the family to be evacuated?
Asbestos is not harmful, and the family was evacuated due to routine construction protocol.
Asbestos was once thought to be very useful, but now it is linked to lung cancer so the family was evacuated.
Asbestos is not harmful, but the family was evacuated so that the asbestos could be recycled for another building.
Asbestos was thought to be useful and is no longer used due to increasing costs to manufacture it.

B.
Asbestos was used in housing for many years because it was cheap to manufacture and was amazingly heat-resistant, but was found to be incredibly dangerous, causing innumerous accounts of lung cancer and related problems.

This is from memory, but I will double check after I answer.

The Florida Panther is the brown and gray species the puma family. For years a small population of the panther lived in the wood
Tasya [4]

The correct answer is - a. It will reduce genetic diversity.

The pumas that live in Florida, also known as the Florida Panthers, will have a much reduced genetic diversity. The reason for this is that the population is very small. It also lives in the same area, where the living conditions are the same. The genetic pool is very small, and the breeding is going on between individuals that have the same traits, and are also relatively closely related, as the mating occurs between the second or third generation that came out form the same parents. That will result in a very reduced genetic diversity, so the Florida Panther will remain the same if the conditions do not change drastically, or these an invasion of pumas from the west into their territory.

Which structural feature allows lipids to insulate and waterproof an organism
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Which factor best explains why lipids are important components of waterproof coatings of organisms?

Which factor best explains why lipids are important components of waterproof coatings of organisms? Lipid molecules are polar and generally soluble in water.

Is waterproof coverings a function of lipids?

Lipids can be used to store energy. Some lipids are important parts of biological membranes and waterproof coverings. Steroids synthesized by the body are lipids as well. Many steroids, such as hormones, serve as chemical messengers.

How are lipids used for insulation?

One type of lipid, the triglycerides, is sequestered as fat in adipose cells, which serve as the energy-storage depot for organisms and also provide thermal insulation

Why are lipids used for insulation?

This is because the lipid tail of molecule is hydrophobic as the water is polar. They are good insulators as they have thick fat layers that trap air inside.

How do lipids react in water?

Lipids are nonpolar molecules, which means their ends are not charged. Because they are nonpolar and water is polar, lipids are not soluble in water. That means the lipid molecules and water molecules do not bond or share electrons in any way. The lipids just float in the water without blending into it.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Humans are 99% identical and what makes each one of us nunique is like 0.1% of our genome and the human genome is up of three billion base pairs which mean 0.1% is still equal to three million base pairs. In those three million differences lies the changes that gives you the green eyes instead of blue eyes etc.
