The context of the sentence and the surrounding sentences implies that the overhead is the overall cost of mobility. Most businesses have overhead such as rent, utilities, or other operating costs.

Plastic Highest Temperature Microwave Safe? Safe with All Foods? Cost FLPE 400 No No High PMP 347 Yes Yes High PP 275 Yes Yes Lo
Leokris [45]

Answer:

1. The highest temperature in microwave for reheating depends on the manufacturers, but a study shows that it can reach up to 191oC for reheating and up to 200oC for cooking [4]. Microwave-safe plastics are those being able to withstand without smelting.

2. Microwaving food in plastic can cause chemicals to leach to food. Migration is likely to be greater with fatty food such as cheese and meat.

3. The best types of plastic for kitchen are those don't contain phthalates (polyvinyle chloride) and bisphenol A (polycarbonate). By contrast, the worst contain one of the two.[1][2][3]

 

Explanation:

Phthalates and bisphenol A are endocrine disrupters, both are known as reproductive toxicants. So if you use plastic in microwave, choose the ones with microwave-safe label. It's because they must pass a strict safety test by FDA to come to the market.[1][2]

Can stories have the same power as speeches when it comes to fighting for an issue
Elanso [62]
Yes, often more power actually. When you’re trying to convince someone of something the most powerful and swaying argument is one that includes a certain amount of emotion (pathos). So for example, instead of just speaking about dying animals to argue for climate change, it is much more effective to tell a personal or emotional story involving the effects climate change has had a you or other real people. Hope that helps :)

It is urgent pls
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

 One morning, three friends went for a drive. They came across a forest and decided to go inside it. They got out of their car and began walking. Unfortunately, they got lost without a clue of how to get back, and to top it off it began raining. They saw in the distance a hut, so they hurried on over to it.

 After knocking on the door, an old man answered. They explained their situation to him. He was kind enough to let them wait inside until the rain stopped and then he escorted them out of the forest, back to their car. They called their other friends and told them about how they got lost, met an old man, and were driving back. They then safely went back to their homes.
