Because semen swims upstream. The bladder is not located above the vagina (internally). If the ejaculation takes place in the vagina, the semen will swim up towards the cervix.
<span>These fish are a major source of toxic mercury.
</span>Poisoning by mercury can damage growth of the baby very easily because of the ratio of the compound versus body weight of the baby. In adult's the problem is less bad but in children is very damaging because they are still growing. <span>

Answer:
Opponent-process theory
Explanation:
The opponent- process theory is based on the idea that every time you are going to need a higher amount of something in order to get the same sensation since your body is going to have the tendendy to develop kind of a habit.
Let's say for example that you are scared of something like a snake, at the begining, it's going to be so hard to face the fear and dare to touch one, but after doing it the first time the fear is going to reduce little by little and at the end you will touch them feeling no discomfort or disgust.
In Helena's case the opponent-process is working the other way round, since every time in order to get the same cool sensation she will need a higher quantity of the thing that is making her have those nice sensations, in this case, cocaine.
Answer:
As stated in Chapter 1, the translation of human energy requirements into recommended intakes of food and the assessment of how well the available food supplies or diets of populations (or even of individuals) satisfy these requirements require knowledge of the amounts of available energy in individual foods. Determining the energy content of foods depends on the following: 1) the components of food that provide energy (protein, fat, carbohydrate, alcohol, polyols, organic acids and novel compounds) should be determined by appropriate analytical methods; 2) the quantity of each individual component must be converted to food energy using a generally accepted factor that expresses the amount of available energy per unit of weight; and 3) the food energies of all components must be added together to represent the nutritional energy value of the food for humans. The energy conversion factors and the models currently used assume that each component of a food has an energy factor that is fixed and that does not vary according to the proportions of other components in the food or diet.
Explanation:
The unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI)[8] is the joule (J). A joule is the energy expended when 1 kg is moved 1 m by a force of 1 Newton. This is the accepted standard unit of energy used in human energetics and it should also be used for the expression of energy in foods. Because nutritionists and food scientists are concerned with large amounts of energy, they generally use kiloJoules (kJ = 103 J) or megaJoules (MJ = 106 J). For many decades, food energy has been expressed in calories, which is not a coherent unit of thermochemical energy. Despite the recommendation of more than 30 years ago to use only joules, many scientists, non-scientists and consumers still find it difficult to abandon the use of calories. This is evident in that both joules (kJ) and calories (kcal) are used side by side in most regulatory frameworks, e.g. Codex Alimentarius (1991). Thus, while the use of joules alone is recommended by international convention, values for food energy in the following sections are given in both joules and calories, with kilojoules given first and kilocalories second, within parenthesis and in a different font (Arial 9). In tables, values for kilocalories are given in italic type. The conversion factors for joules and calories are: 1 kJ = 0.239 kcal; and 1 kcal = 4.184 kJ.
