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]

Answer:
Slavery was the main issue dividing the main parties.
Explanation:
The election of 1856 in which James Buchanan won as a Democratic presidential candidate, against the Know-Nothings party and the Republican party, shows that "Slavery was the main issue dividing the main parties."
This is evident in the fact that the Democratic party was perceived by the public as a party in support of slavery.
Hence, some Democrats and Whigs party members fall out to form new parties, the Know-Nothing Party, and the Republican party.
The Know-Nothings party has the ideal of anti-immigration, while the Republicans have the anti-slavery ideals.
