1- Combustion reactions are exothermic reactions since these reactions result in the emission of heat (heat is a product and not a reactant)

2- A substance with higher specific heat that water would be liquid ammonia. This means that, for the same amount of energy given to both water and liquid ammonia, water will heat faster and gain more thermal energy (in degree celcius) that liquid ammonia.

3- Conduction : occurs when heat is directly transmitted from a material to another due to the difference in temperature between both. Examples are:
a- when using an iron the heat is transferred from the  iron to the piece of clothe being ironed
b- if you hold a hot cup heat will transfer to your hand
c- when you hold chocolate with your bare hand it will melt due to the transfer of heat from your hand to the chocolate
d- when you heat food on the stove the heat will transfer from the flame to the pan
e- when you hold ice it melts due to the transfer of heat from your hand to the ice piece
f- when you place hot liquid in a cup the heat will transfer from the liquid to the cup and the cup will become hot
g- if you place a spoon in a plate containing hot food the heat will be transferred from the food to the spoon making it hot
h- when you walk on the sand beach during summer the heat will be transferred from the sand to your feet and your feet will be hot
i- if you hold someone's hand when he/sh is cold the heat will be transferred from your hand to his/hers
j- Light bulbs emit heat, if you touch them this heat will be transferred to your body

4- Convection : is the transfer of heat through liquids or gases. Examples:
a- when water at the bottom of a pot is heated, it transfers this heat to the water above by convection
b- the process of ice melting when left in the air where heat is transferred from the air to the ice
c- the same goes for chocolate melting
d- cooling a frozen substance using running water where heat is transferred from the water to the frozen substance
e- when you stream a hot cup of tea/coffee, you transfer heat from the tea/coffee to the air
f- when a radiator moves the hot air upwards and the cold air downwards
g- when a balloon rises up wen being filled with hot air
h- when the ocean circulates and heat is transferred from warm water to cool water
i- when heat is transferred from a bulb to the surrounding air
j- when you cool the radiator of your car using water where water is transferred from the radiator to the water.

5- Radiation: the emission of energy in the form of waves. Examples:
a- the sunlight (ultraviolet radiations of sunlight)
b- x-rays
c- the flame/light of a candle
d- the gamma radiations from the explosion of a star
e- microwaves of a microwave oven
f- the radiations of the mobile phone which are electromagnetic radiations
g- the beam of a laser
h- placing your hand over warm fire
i- emission of alpha particles from decaying uranium
j- the radio waves

Imagine a scenario where Barr bodies are not due to random inactivation, but rather, the silencing is due to paternal imprinting
artcher [175]

Answer:

<h2>If Barr bodies are not due to random inactivation, but rather, the silencing is due to paternal imprinting  then the frequency of men and women differs. </h2>

Explanation:

Red-green color  blindness: color blindness is an X-linked recessive disorder. The male having this disease will transmit his X chromosome (with the mutation) to his daughter, who will then be a carrier of the disease.  

If Barr bodies are not due to random inactivation, but rather, the silencing is due to paternal imprinting  then the frequency of men and women differs.

Male inherit its X chromosome only from mother and no X chromosome from father, having one Y chromosome but female receive one X chromosome from father and one from mother, having no Y chromosome, So if the paternal allele is silenced then the males are no affected.

As part of a blood drive on campus for the American Red Cross, you and your friends have just donated 500 ml of blood. You are n
Lunna [17]

D) no change in cardiac output, increased heart rate, decreased stroke volume occurs after blood donation

Explanation:

When a person donates blood, there is a slight loss of blood volume or hypovolemia. This triggers the baroreceptors of the blood; although does not trigger the osmoreceptor.

The baroreceptor responses are according to the arterial pressure which rises momentarily and results in increased sympathetic activity with decreased vagal activity.

These changes will lead to vasoconstriction, reduced stroke volume, increased heart rate or tachycardia which helps to maintain the cardiac output.

The soreness at the venepuncture site on the skin is due to bruising which is common after any needleprick. applying cold pack, elevating and resting the arm.

In order to compensate for the fluid volume loss and avoid dehydration, one must take plenty of fluids before and after blood donation.
