Give examples to show that plastic are non-corrosive in nature
34kurt

Answer:

Plastics are non-corrosive in nature because they do not react with air, water or other substances. They do not get corroded even if they come in contact with strong chemicals. This is because of their non-reactive nature with most materials. For example, the cleansing chemicals that we use at home are stored in plastic bottles, instead of metal containers. I know its late but I still hope it helped.  :)

Wittaler [7]

Answer:1. White blood cells are part of the body's immune system. They help the body fight infection and other diseases.

2. They contain hemoglobin, a red protein that combines with oxygen. They have no nucleus so they can contain more of the hemoglobin. they are small and flexible so that they can fit through narrow blood vessels.

3. This will lead to excess blood loss and can even lead to the death.

4. Such as as sugar, oxygen, and hormones to our cells. It also carries waste away from the cells, this waste is eventually flushed out of the body in urine, feces, sweat, and lungs.
