Answer:

Alcohol Dehydrogenase

Explanation:

Alcohol consumed orally is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. About 90 to 98% of alcohol ingested is oxidized to acetaldehyde. This oxidation occurs on two levels:

a) At the gastrointestinal level, where alcohol is oxidized by the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) in acetaldehyde. This enzyme, in addition to catalyzing the oxidation of ethanol, also catalyzes the oxidation of other alcohols.

b) At the hepatic level, where the main metabolism occurs, and alcohol is transformed into acetaldehyde mainly by the action of ADH, but also by the action of the microsomal oxidative system of alcohol, whose enzymes are activated to higher alcohol levels.

1. Salmonella is from undercooked meats true/false  

2. There are no simple steps to food safety. true/false  

3. Gastroenteritis comes from the food that has been contaminated by food preparers or people who handle food.  true/false

4. You don’t have to wash your hands after touching a cut or playing with your pet. true/false  

5. It’s no big deal to cut foods on the counter. true/false  

6. The temperature of the fridge doesn’t matter true/false  

7. It’s fine if you place cooked food on a plate that previously had raw meat on it.  


This is how I did mines.


SO, all what your doing is to just make a quiz with true/false then on the next page it should be an answer sheet for the quiz you made. and just put the correct answers their. ; ) Hope this helps!


Here's is how mines look: False, Salmonella comes from contaminated water, and kitchen surfaces.

2. False, There are 4 simple steps to food safety and they are, wash your hands, don’t cross contaminate things, cook food properly and refrigerate things properly.  

3. True

4. False, YOU have to wash your hands, if not then you could get sick. Who knows where your pets been?  

5. False, it is a BIG deal because there’s probably dirty traces of other foods, and probably not aware of it.  Even though you clean the counter it’s still not best to put foods on the counter.  

6. False, the temperature of the fridge matters always, you wat to make sure your foods you have in there aren’t spoiling, so make sure you check every time to make sure that it’s on the right temperature.  

7. FALSE, this is a BIG NO NO you should NEVER EVER think about doing that, it will cause a lot of germs to your food, NOT only that! It also causes sickness, diseases, and food poisoning.  

SO I made my quiz short with only 7 questions and 7 answers instead of 10. ;)


Good Luck!

How can children of alcoholics be affecte<br> d mentally, environmentally and spiritually?
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Explanation:

The mental health trauma is so severe, says Psychology Today, that it is akin to what soldiers in combat suffer; there is chaos and inconsistency, even violence, in an alcoholic family. For children, there may be physical and/or sexual assault (including incest), which can scar them well into adulthood.
