Answer:

Answer ..... Decongestants, Amphetamines and over-the- counter cold medications.

Explanation:

The above mentioned drugs require caution while administering them to an older adult with heart failure developed due to hypertension , this is because the drugs have the tendency of increasing water retention and increasing cardiac load. And this is very dangerous for such person.

Which of the statements are true? Yeast cells that produce more unsaturated fatty acids than saturated fatty acids in response t

Feliz [49]

Answer:1)Yeast cells that produce more unsaturated fatty acids than saturated fatty acids in response to cold have greater cold tolerance

2)Cell membranes in reindeer legs (near the hooves) are kept flexible because they have a large number of saturated fatty acids.

3.)Cell membranes in cold tolerant winter wheat plants have a higher ratio of unsaturated fatty acids to saturated fatty acids than do cold intolerant wheat varieties.

Explanation.

Basically the longer the chains of fatty acids the higher the degree of energy produced as heat energy, and therefore the higher the insulation.

Unsaturated fats clogged together and the aggregate carbons and hydrogens ensured insulation.

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>
