Nicotine, once in the brain, will work specifically on nicotinic receptors in the brain. However, there is a common "addiction" pathway in the brain that pretty much all addictive substances go through.

LenKa [72]

Answer:

Charles Ehler: incorrect.

Wendell Mullison: correct.

Robert Rodriguez: correct.

Judy Johnson:correct.

Explanation:

-Charles Ehler´s statement is incorrect because in order for a chemical company launch a new product it must pass several tests, that´s why products lasts years in proves, there are several tests such as the environment test that proves that the product doesn´t affect other species, or the human safety that makes sure the product doesn´t affect human health.Wendell Mulison´s statement proves to be correct with this as well.

-Robert Rodriguez´s statement is correct because even though there are several tests that take care human healt there are just a few based on the damage pesticides produce to the land where are used.

-Judy Johnson´s statement is correct because science has proved that the resistant of parasites as being increasing with the products tat are used to combat them. Bacterias are an example of it, many drugs used against bacterias are now useless for some people because of the resistantthey have developed.

-One specie that can be taken as a pesticide can be the ground snail, that affects some plants and also may contain a parasite aclled "Hepatic fasciola" that affects sheeps and goats of farmers.

-One viable method to control pesticides is the sue of other species to control them, this specie has to be adequate to the land, for example, if a farmer wants to get rid of the ground snails because of the parasite and the damage they do to their platings, they can introduce ducks to the farm that eat them without damaging the land with any kind of chemical product.

A number of marine reptiles and birds have salt glands, which have a remarkable ability to concentrate salt solutions for excret

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

A)100mL B)50mL C)The second option D)Hypoosmotic Environment

Explanation:

The average Na concentration in the seas and oceans of the world is around 3,5% which mean that in 100 ml of sea water, there is around 3,5 grams of Na.

The weight of one mol of NaCl is 58,44 grams. For 3,5 grams of NaCl, we get 3,5/58,44 = 0,060 mol of NaCl which is 0,060x1000 = 60 mmol/100ml. According to this and the information given in the question about the secretion of the salt glands', if the average sodium concentration is 600mmol/L, we have 60*10 = 600mmol/L so it would take 100 mililiters of water to excrete.

If the average Na concentration of the salt gland's secretion were 300 mmol/L, only 50 mililiters of water would be needed to excrete the same sodium load.

The second option of secretion is hyperosmotic to seawater because the concentration is higher.

Osmoregulation is the process of balancing the amount of water and salt between the body of the organism and its surrounding environment. For salt glands to be advantageous for osmoregulation, they need to be in a hypoosmotic environment.

I hope this answer helps.

There are 258 g of MgCl2/liter. What is the molarity of the solution?

Zolol [24]

Taking into account the definition of molarity, the molarity of the solution is 2.7098 moles of MgCl₂/liter.

<h3>Definition of molarity</h3>

Molarity is a measure of the concentration of a solute in a solution and indicates the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a given volume.

The molarity of a solution is calculated by dividing the moles of solute by the volume of the solution:

molarity= number of moles÷ volume

<h3>Molarity of the solution in this case</h3>

In this case, you know that the molar mass of MgCl₂ is 95.21 g/mole [molar mass is the amount of mass that a substance contains in one mole.]

You can apply the following rule of three: If by definition of molar mass 95.21 grams are contained in 1 mole, 258 grams are contained in how many moles?

amount of moles= (258 grams× 1 mole)÷ 95.21 grams

<u><em>amount of moles= 2.7098 moles</em></u>

Replacing in the definition of molarity:

258 g of MgCl₂/liter= <u><em>2.7098 moles of MgCl₂/liter</em></u>

<em />

Finally, the molarity of the solution is 2.7098 moles of MgCl₂/liter.
