Answer: 48.93 mL of sprite

Volume of blood in 7 Kg human = 5 L

Percentage of plasma in blood = 55%

Volume of plasma in 5 L blood =  (1 L = 10 dL)

Concentration of glucose in plasma = 80 mg/dL

Amount of glucose present in 27.5 dL : 80 mg /dL × 27.5 dL= 2200 mg

Let the volume of sprite with 2200 mg glucose be x

Concentration of glucose in sprite = 44.96 mg/mL

Colt1911 [192]

When grilling chicken using charcoal fire, the energy transformation that takes place starts from chemical energy, to radiant energy and then thermal energy. The combustion reaction of the charcoal fire converts the chemical energy into heat. The charcoal fire is considered as radiant energy. Lastly, burning fuels like coal or wood produces thermal energy, and that thermal energy is basically the reason why the chicken was cooked even without directly touching the fire.

tatiyna

<u><em>Solar Energy and Biodiversity</em></u><em> are the 3 factors of Sustainability.</em>

Answer:

<em>B. Solar energy </em>

<em>D. Biodiversity </em>

Explanation:

Sustainable sources of energy are renewable sources of energy. Sustainable energy is the availability of energy to such an extent that it addresses the issues of the present without trading off the capacity of future ages to address their issues.

Sustainable energy incorporates all sustainable energy sources, for instance, hydroelectricity (electricity from water), biomass, geothermal (electricity from the Earth), wind (using windmill), wave, tidal and sun oriented energies. Renewable energy is the process but sustainable energy is our belief or mindset.
