Explanation:
This medication is used as a moisturizer to treat or prevent dry, rough, scaly, itchy skin and minor skin irritations (e.g., diaper rash, skin burns from radiation therapy). Emollients are substances that soften and moisturize the skin and decrease itching and flaking.
An independent variable is the variable changed or controlled in a scientific experiment to test the effects on the dependent variable. A dependent variable is the variable being tested and measured in a scientific experiment.
I found a presentation of Food web of a pond that will greatly connect with the above problem. http://www.eduweb.com/portfolio/earthsystems/food/foodweb4.html
Normal setting:
Species Pop. size
Blue heron Medium
Perch Medium
Bass Medium
Minnows Medium
Inverts Medium
Algae Medium
If PERCH population size decreases,
Species Pop. sizeBlue heron LowPerch LowBass MediumMinnows HighInverts HighAlgae Low
As you can see, 4 other species are affected when the Perch population size decreased. Bass is not affected.
<em>From the above options, the best </em><em>Thermal insulator </em><em>will be a </em><em>Plastic cup.</em>
Option (b);
<u>Explanation</u>
Thermal insulators resist to conduct energy or reduction of heat transfer when objects come across in contact with radiation or higher heat object. To conduct energy we need metal or those materials which contain free electrons in it to move from one metal to another.
Plastic doesn't have metallic character so it will resist the heat up to some threshold. Mostly this material is used in separating two current-conducting material. There are many other examples of thermal insulator such as Rubber, fabrics, paper, wood, wool.
