emmasim [6.3K]3 years ago

The answer is A, the tendency of a cell to maintain a stable internal environment.

One of the example of homeostasis in human is the control of blood glucose level. If there's too much glucose in our blood, our body release a hormone called insulin to lower the glucose level, to maintain a stable level. On the other hand, if our blood glucose level is too low, another hormone called glucagon is released to raise the glucose level in our blood.

Homeostasis does not only happen to humans, but also to other animals and plants too.

Black coffee has a pH around 5; hand soap has a pH of 10. How many times more acidic is coffee relative
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 10^5 \ or \ 100,000 \ times \ more \ acidic}}

Explanation:

The pH scale stands for the power or potential of hydrogen. It measures how acidic or basic a solution based on the concentration of hydrogen ions and a scale from 1 to 14.

This scale is unique because it is logarithmic. So, every time the pH changes by 1 on the scale, the actual concentration of the solution increases or decreases by a tenfold.

So, a solution with a pH of 7 is ten times more acidic than a solution with a pH of 8. This can be translated to:

10^ {difference \ in \ pH}

The black coffee has a pH of 5 and the hand soap has a pH of 10. We want to find how many times more acidic coffee is, so we subtract 5 from 10 and get 5. The difference in pH is 5.

10^5=100,000

Coffee is <u>10⁵ or 100,000 times more acidic than hand soap.</u>
