Why are environmental factors important to consider when assessing an individual’s health?

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer: c. Some health risks are increased by heredity, which manifest under certain environmental conditions.

Explanation:

Many abiotic factors (non-living factors) such as radiations, hazardous substances present in the environment such as air, water and soil may originate from the industries, mining practices, fossil fuels and landfills. Some of the substances are carcinogenic and mutagenic in nature. These are capable of affecting the genetic make up of the organism. The genetic variations or mutations occurs may transmit from the parent to the offsprings.

Therefore, on the basis of the above information, c. Some health risks are increased by heredity, which manifest under certain environmental conditions. is the correct option.

Explain what happens to the light ray when above and below the line are both water

IceJOKER [234]

<>"Refraction is the bending of the path of a light wave as it passes from one material into another material. The refraction occurs at the boundary and is caused by a change in the speed of the light wave upon crossing the boundary. The tendency of a ray of light to bend one direction or another is dependent upon whether the light wave speeds up or slows down upon crossing the boundary. The speed of a light wave is dependent upon the optical density of the material through which it moves. For this reason, the direction that the path of a light wave bends depends on whether the light wave is traveling from a more dense (slow) medium to a less dense (fast) medium or from a less dense medium to a more dense medium. In this part of Lesson 1, we will investigate this topic of the direction of bending of a light wave.

Predicting the Direction of Bending

Recall the Marching Soldiers analogy discussed earlier in this lesson. The analogy served as a model for understanding the boundary behavior of light waves. As discussed, the analogy is often illustrated in a Physics classroom by a student demonstration. In the demonstration, a line of students (representing a light wave) marches towards a masking tape (representing the boundary) and slows down upon crossing the boundary (representative of entering a new medium). The direction of the line of students changes upon crossing the boundary. The diagram below depicts this change in direction for a line of students who slow down upon crossing the boundary.

On the diagram, the direction of the students is represented by two arrows known as rays. The direction of the students as they approach the boundary is represented by an incident ray (drawn in blue). And the direction of the students after they cross the boundary is represented by a refracted ray (drawn in red). Since the students change direction (i.e., refract), the incident ray and the refracted ray do not point in the same direction. Also, note that a perpendicular line is drawn to the boundary at the point where the incident ray strikes the boundary (i.e., masking tape). A line drawn perpendicular to the boundary at the point of incidence is known as a normal line. Observe that the refracted ray lies closer to the normal line than the incident ray does. In such an instance as this, we would say that the path of the students has bent towards the normal. We can extend this analogy to light and conclude that:

Light Traveling from a Fast to a Slow Medium

If a ray of light passes across the boundary from a material in which it travels fast into a material in which travels slower, then the light ray will bend towards the normal line.

The above principle applies to light passing from a material in which it travels fast across a boundary and into a material in which it travels slowly. But what if light wave does the opposite? What if a light wave passes from a material in which it travels slowly across a boundary and into a material in which it travels fast? The answer to this question can be answered if we reconsider the Marching Soldier analogy. Now suppose that the each individual student in the train of students speeds up once they cross the masking tape. The first student to reach the boundary will speed up and pull ahead of the other students. When the second student reaches the boundary, he/she will also speed up and pull ahead of the other students who have not yet reached the boundary. This continues for each consecutive student, causing the line of students to now be traveling in a direction further from the normal. This is depicted in the diagram below.

b. Determine the molecular formula of a molecule with an empirical formula NH2and a molar mass of 32 g/mol.

VladimirAG [237]

I'm taking this lesson now, so imma help u ( if u need anything else ask me)

so given Molar mass= 32 g/mol
molar mass= (empirical formula) n
32 = (14x1 + 2x1) n
32 = 16 n , so n= 2
so, molecular formula= N2H4

What is the electron structure of a sodium atom?

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1

Explanation:

All the elements in the periodic table, has an atomic number. This number tell us different things, such as number of protons, position in the periodic table among others.

One of the things that tell us the atomic number is the electron structure.

First, all elements begins always with 1s. This is because the first number indicates number of energy level which is in. This tell us, the period of the periodic table is the element, the s, is the type of orbital which the electrons are located. the s orbytal can only have 2 electrons max, and with the increasement of the atomic number, this electrons also increase.

Therefore for an element like Helium, (atomic number = 2) means that we have to begin with the 1s and put 2 electrons, to complete the atomic number. In this case, it would be 1s2.

When we surpass this number, we use another energy level, in this case, 2, and begin again with orbytal s. Then, when we surpass 2s2, we use now another orbytal, which is p. This is because we have more elements in the second period of the table, so we need another kind of energy levels to carry all the electrons. orbytal p can carry up to 6 electrons max, so for an element like Florine (Atomic number = 9), it's structure would be 1s2 2s2 2p5. As you can count the electrons, we have 2 + 2 + 5 = 9, we complete the atomic numbers and the electrons would be, the numbers of electrons located in the last energy level, in this case, the 2s and 2p, and it would be 7 electrons.

Now after this explanation, in the case of sodium (Na), the atomic number of sodium is 11, therefore, we need to count til 11 so:

[Na] = 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1

As you can see, sodium is the first element of period 3 of the table, and we begin with the energy level 3. In your case it would be the last option you put.
