The answer is 4ml

Lasix is made of furosemide, a diuretic drugs that frequently used. To know the volume of drug needed, you need to divide the dose needed by the drug concentration. The dose gien is 40mg per dose while the concentration of the drug is 10mg/ml. The drug administered per doses would be: 40mg/ (10mg/ml)= 4ml

SUNLIGHT
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

"without light energy from the sun, photosynthesis would still occur" is completely false. Light energy is needed for the light-dependent reactions, or simply the light reactions, of photosynthesis.

"oxygen is an input into photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is an output" is also completely false. It is the opposite.

These statements are true, however:

SUNLIGHT

CARBON DIOXIDE

WATER

MINERALS

OXYGEN

PLANT SUGARS

Carbon dioxide enters the leaves through stomata (tiny holes) in the leaves.

Sunlight is an input, CO2 is an input, water is an input (taken in through the roots, transported through the veins), minerals are a collective input, oxygen is an output (produced during photolysis), and plant sugars are an output (glucose, for an example).

Which of the following is NOT the result of a mutation in the DNA sequence of an organism?
Mama L [17]

DNA is copied during mitosis and when the two resulting copies of DNA are compared they are found to contain the same order of nucleotides is not the result of mutation in the DNA sequence of an organism.

Explanation:

Mutation is the process

It is caused by certain chemicals called mutagens or by environmental factors.

In mutation the nucleotide get change which eventually changes the protein product.

In  mutation purine base gets mutated to purine base and pyrimidine base gets mutated to pyrimidine only.

A single change in nucleotide is called point mutation and the effect occurring because of it is called frame shift mutations.

In S phase there are checkpoints which ensure that DNA replication is accurate and when mitosis follows it equal distribution of DNA takes place between the two daughter cells hence no mutation will takes place.

In general, the nervous system
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-E.

Explanation:

The nervous system is one of the most important systems of the animal body which helps in the transmission of the signals to and fro from the body to the nervous system.

The evolution of this system is the basis of the evolution of the human species as it helped and tried the species to sense the external environment most efficiently as well as improved the response to the environment.

The nervous system improved the response by forming new interactions with each other and responding to it by reducing the response time through reflex actions which formed fast acting response to the environment. The transmission of signals improved as the cells were long-lasting that is present form the birth of an organism  

Thus,  option-E is the correct answer.
