Because water is polar and oil is non polar, their molecules are not attracted to each other. The molecules of a polar solvent like water are attracted to other polar molecules, such as those of sugar. ... Because water molecules are polar, they interact with the sodium and chloride ions.

Water is better solvent for salt as compared to oil because water is a polar solvent. The water molecules are tend to attract each other and other polar molecules also because of their polarity. The oil molecules are non polar hence, they will not attract to any other polar molecules. Therefore, water is a better solvent for salt as compared to oil.

Mo says it was the environment that made them who they are; Jasper says it was because of genetics. Which is it? Construct an ex
bija089 [108]

Answer:

It's the nature vs nurture situation. While the genetics of a person does control the physical traits he/she may develop, the environment also has a major role to play here. For instance, the person may have the genes for developing a tall height. If, however, that person is not provided with the right kind of nutrition and the right time, it is very likely that he/she will not grow as tall as they had the potential for. Similar explanation for non-physical traits.

This is not an 'either/or' type of argument. Genetics and the environment have a collective impact in shaping the person into who they are and while the balance may shift to one side or the other in certain cases, it does not cancel out or negate the other's effect.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

Which of the following are matched correctly?
kogti [31]

Answer:

<u>1. type IV hypersensitivity: delayed-type hypersensitivity.  </u>

<u>2. type I hypersensitivity: IgE  </u>

<u>3. type II hypersensitivity: IgG  </u>

<u>4. type III hypersensitivity: immune complexes </u>

Explanation:

Type IV hypersensitivity is cell mediated hypersensitivity rather than antibodies as in all other types of hypersensitivities. It is also known as delayed type hypersensitivity because it usually respond in 2-3 days via T-Lymphocytes rather than antibodies like IgE or IgG. So we can say that in option 5 is mismatched as it relates type IV to IgG antibodies.
