There are several different insecticides sold at your local home and garden store. They all claim to be safe for use around anim

als and children, but you want to be sure of this safety before you use one of the products at your own home. What would be the best way to increase the scientific reliability of these safety claims? (2 points)
Ask an employee of the store for her recommendation.

Look up results of tests conducted by environmental agencies.

Check for endorsements by celebrities of home-improvement shows.

Use the sales records to determine which product is most popular.

The answer is: Look up results of tests conducted by environmental agencies.

For example, the FDA tests give reliability to the results of improved health obtained by each company.

The FDA (The Food and Drug Administration) is a federal agency of the United States Department of Health and Human Services.

The FDA controls food safety, tobacco products, dietary supplements, prescription, pharmaceutical drugs, vaccines, biopharmaceuticals, blood transfusions, medical devices, electromagnetic radiation emitting devices, cosmetics and animal food.

Other claims are not reliable.

A mixture of helium, nitrogen and oxygen has a total pressure of 756 mmHg. The partial
Karolina [17]

Answer:

The  partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture is 296 mmHg.

Explanation:

The pressure exerted by a particular gas in a mixture is known as its partial pressure. So, Dalton's law states that the total pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the pressures that each gas would exert if it were alone.

This relationship is due to the assumption that there are no attractive forces between the gases.

So, in this case, the total pressure is:

PT=Phelium + Pnitrogen + Poxygen

You know:

  • PT= 756 mmHg
  • Phelium= 122 mmHg
  • Pnitrogen= 338 mmHg
  • Poxygen= ?

Replacing:

756 mmHg= 122 mmHg + 338 mmHg + Poxygen

Solving:

756 mmHg - 122 mmHg - 338 mmHg = Poxygen

Poxygen= 296 mmHg

<u><em>The  partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture is 296 mmHg.</em></u>

If you found carbon 13 atom, you would know that
bearhunter [10]
The Options are as follow,

<span>a. it has 13 protons                  c. it has 13 neutrons                      </span>

<span>b. it has 13 electrons               d. it has 7 neutrons</span>


Answer:

             Option-d is the correct answer.


Explanation:

             As we know that C-13 has a atomic mass of 13. Also, atomic mass is given as,


<span>                 Atomic Mass  =  # of Protons  +  # of Neutrons   --- (1)</span>


Since;

          Atomic Mass  =  13

And,

          # of protons  =  6 (as number of protons  =  atomic number)


Putting values in equation 1,


                               13  =  6  -  # of Neutrons


Solving for Number of Neutrons,


                               # of Neutrons  =  13  -  6


                               # of Neutrons  =  7

Anabolic reactions may be characterized as
cluponka [151]

Anabolism is characterized as the assembly of large molecules from small molecules.

Anabolism is the set of chemical reactions of molecular synthesis of the organism considered. It is the opposite of catabolism, set of degradation reactions.

The reactions of the anabolism are reductions and are not spontaneous, they are endergonic reactions that is to say that they require a contribution in energy to take place. We can also talk about biosynthesis.

These reactions allow living organisms to synthesize essential metabolites from the basics provided by the diet and result in the building or renewal of tissues.

Examples: photosynthesis, protein biosynthesis.
