Scientists can access the risks of trans fats by conducting an appropriate experiment which will show the effects of the fats on the human system.
This can be done by feeding known quantity of trans fats to rats over a specific period of time. During the period, the change in the rat weights will be measured on the daily basis and every other changes that is noted in the rats will be noted down. A control group of rats will be included in the experiment; these rats will be given normal rat feeds and not trans fats.
 When the period of feeding is completed, the rats will be killed, all the organs in the rats such as liver, blood, brains, kidney, etc will be harvested and these organs will then be biochemically analysed in order to compare the changes in them with that of a normal rats.
Rats are usually used in biochemical research because their systems and that of human is comparable. Any negative effect of trans fats that is noted in the rats will also hold true for human beings.

The movement of oceans has no impact on the Earth’s climate.
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

It's false

Explanation:

Because the ocean has a very important influence on the weather. Seawater absorbs heat, and releases it to the earth, heating or cooling the environment, thanks to sea breezes. The climate of these regions becomes warmer and wetter. The ocean allows to warm the atmosphere when it is cold and cools it when the atmosphere is hot, meanwhile, the atmosphere sets the surface currents in motion, renewing the water. Finally, convective currents occur in the ocean, which presents warmer and colder waters.

what properties of water would be most important in protecting a fish in a shallow pond on a hot summer day?
Leya [2.2K]

Answer: High Specific Heat Of Water

Explanation:

Water’s high specific heat helps to maintain low temperature and protects fish life. This is due to the presence of hydrogen bonds in larger amount between water molecules. Of course, specific heat plays a role to capture more energy without rise in temperature.

When heat gets absorbed, water molecules move freely and hydrogen bond gets broken. If temperature decreases, release energy by forming hydrogen bond. Hence, it clearly shows that this water property can drastically change the temperature quickly  which is important in protecting a fish in a shallow pond on a hot summer day.
