This kind of exposure is called caustic exposure.

Explanation:

A caustic exposure is an exposure to chemicals present in common household cleaning products like detergents, cleaning solutions, drain cleaners etc.

These contain caustic substances (strong concentration of acid or base) like sodium hydroxide, sulfuric acid etc. When exposed directly on to the skin, due to its stronger concentration, it may burn the skin causing redness, irritation, numbness, or blackening of the skin surface.

Most of the times, these marks go away after some weeks because they are superficial or first-degree burn where only the epidermal layer of the skin gets affected.

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!

What does the blood pressure reading 130/90 mean? Is this a healthy blood pressure or not?
Lorico [155]

Answer with Explanation:

High Blood Pressure refers to a condition wherein the heart is pumping more blood, thus causing a narrowing of the arteries. Such narrowing of arteries causes the pressure of blood to increase.

A person's blood pressure is dependent on the "systole" and "diastole" of the person. The "systole" is the pressure on top of the reading and is caused by the contraction of the ventricles (between the first and second heart sounds). The "diastole" refers to the relaxation of the muscles.

Depending on your health condition and age, a blood pressure reading of 130/90 may be normal or abnormal. For example, if you have a kidney disease, your blood pressure may be elevated than normal. So, this makes 130/90 a normal blood pressure for you. However, if your normal blood pressure is 120/80 then you suddenly get 130/90, then it means this is abnormal for you. There are probably factors, such as eating salt foods that contributed to this.

<u>Normal blood pressure is 120/80 and less than 140/90.</u> Thus, we can consider 130/90 as a healthy blood pressure. Those blood pressure lower than this may also be acceptable. Remember that when you are getting older, your blood pressure is increasing because the arteries in your body is changing regarding its structures.
