Exposure to small amounts of lead<span> over a long period of time is called chronic toxicity. </span>Lead<span> is particularly </span>dangerous<span> because once it gets into a person's system, it is distributed throughout the body just like helpful minerals such as iron, calcium, and zinc. And </span>lead<span> can cause harm wherever it lands in the body.</span>

Lead exposure can adversely affect nearly every system in the body. And because it often occurs with no obvious symptoms, it frequently goes undiagnosed until it's too late. Children younger than age 6 are especially vulnerable to lead poisoning<span>, which can severely affect mental and physical development.</span>

pogonyaev

Answer:

A. the electric motor

Explanation:

A cell is a biological molecule which is the basic and functional unit of life. Cells undergo series of processes to function appropriately. ATP is an acronym for adenosine triphosphate, which is the source of energy for various cell processes.

In the given mechanical system, the electric motor provides the energy required energy to drive the system. Therefore, the electric motor has the same major function of providing energy for the system as the ATP in a cell.

If you knew the number of valence electrons in a nonmetal atom, how would you determine the valence of the element?
Mrrafil [7]
If we knew the number of electrons in the outermost shell, the valence electrons, then we could find the valency of the element by calculating how many electrons need to be gained or lost to achieve stable electronic configuration.
For example, if an element has 7 valence electrons, and requires 8 valence electrons to be stable, then its valency will be -1.

which of the following would increase the loudness of a sound? increase tension increase wavelength increase amplitude
andriy [413]

Answer : The correct option is, increase amplitude.

Explanation :

Amplitude : It is a measure of the size of sound waves.

The loudness of sound is depend on the amplitude of the sound wave. That means the more the amplitude, the louder will be the sound and the less the amplitude, the low will be the sound.

The loudness of sound does not depend on the tension and wavelength.

Therefore, the correct answer is, increase amplitude.
