C causes central nervous system damage to humans
The answer is B.
If you put one plant in wet soil, and one plant in dry soil, you can prove or disprove your hypothesis as the plants grow.
Answer: the cfu/g Gram-negative bacteria in the fecal sample is C = 3.0 × 10^3
Explanation:
We know that; Gram negative bacteria looks pale reddish in color under a light microscope from Gram staining.
therefore
There are 30 red bacterial colonies counted.
1 mL of from tube 1 was removed and added to tube with 99 mL saline (tube 2) dilution is 1/100.
transferred volume into the plate is 1 mL.
Now, we have to determine the cfu/g Gram-negative bacteria in the fecal sample
Formula to calculate CFU/g bacteria in fecal sample is expressed as;
C = n/(s×d )
where C is concentration (CFU/g)
, n is number of colonies
, s is volume transferred to plate
, d is dilution factor.
so we substitute
C = 30 / ((1/100) × 1)
C = 30 / 0.01
C = 3000
C = 3.0 × 10^3
THERFERE, the cfu/g Gram-negative bacteria in the fecal sample is C = 3.0 × 10^3
Agency problem
Agency problem also known as agency costs occurs in a two-party relationship (principal/agent) where the agent is expected to act or make decisions for the good of the principal.
For example in a corporate the relationship between the management and shareholders. The management is expected to make decisions that will maximize shareholders interest. The problem arises when the two parties have different interests. In the example above the manager may opt to make his own wealth and not act in the company’s best interest which could be maximizing company’s market value.
Examples of agency relationship in finance
Managers/stockholders
Managers/Creditors
Causes of conflicts between managers and stockholders may include;
Remuneration - low remunerations or fixed salaries despite increased profit margins.
Differences in risk profile- stockholders may prefer high-risk return investments contrary to the managers. When high-risk investment go bad the manager risks job loss
Manipulation of accounting systems- to reflect high profits.
Unnecessary perks management award themselves.
Solution to these problems include threat for firing in case of poor performance, shareholders may also threaten to sell the company, remuneration based on performance, incurring agency costs-these are costs incurred while hiring external auditors, setting a control system, legal costs for employment letters and contracts.
Agency problem may be reduced by motivating the manager to act for the companies best interest by offering incentives

The correct answer is B. Genetics
Explanation:
In health, a risk factor is a variable that can make a patient more likely to develop a disease or condition. Additionally, some of these factors can be controlled or changed by the patient, while others cannot be modified. Factors that can be controlled include stress, diet, weight, alcohol intake, and habits. This does not apply to factors such as age or genetics, for example, in the case of genetics, this is determined by the genes of each parent when a human being is formed, and therefore there is not any way to change this; although factors such as diet, stress, or smoking affect the expression of mutations in genes. Thus, the risk factor Jack has no control over is genetics.
