Answer:

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mutagen is part of genetics, it is chemical or physical agent which are present in atmosphere and causes changes or mutation in the genetic materials i.e. in DNA (these changes can be permanent as well). Example of mutagen are radioactive substances, ultraviolet radiation, etc.

UV radiation is an electromagnetic radiation which is present in sunlight. It is a strong mutagen which is when absorbed by DNA can cause extreme damage, for example, uncontrolled division of skin cell can cause skin cancer, that's the reason why UV radiation is the most common mutagen to which we are exposed to when we are outside in the sunlight.

The length of 2 sides of a triangle are 12 inches and 4 inches. Which is the third side?
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Let x = the third side

 

In a triangle, the sum of any 2 sides must be larger than the third side.

I believe this is called the triangle inequality theorem.

 

We can construct 3 inequalities to obtain the range of values for the third side.

 

  (Inequality #1)   12 + 4 > x

                                  16 > x

 

  (Inequality#2)    12 + x > 4

                                    x > -8   (we can discard this ... we know all sides will be positive)

 

  (Inequality #3)   4 + x > 12

                                   x > 8

 

So when we combine these together,  

 

   8 < x < 16

 

X (the third side) must be a number between 8 and 16. but not including 8 and 16
