Answer:

False

Explanation:

This is false because saliva is the has one of the most bacteria within the human body. If it is not cleansed cavities will grow and effect your teeth, gums and more.

While brushing your teeth at least twice a day is essential to good oral hygiene, brushing alone only removes up to 70% of bad bacteria and can't protect your teeth from the buildup of plaque or the breakdown of tooth enamel. But just because of that doesn't mean that cleaning your teeth twice a day isn't a good habit.

The American Dental Association recommends brushing your teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste for two minutes each time. When you brush your teeth, you help remove food and plaque — a sticky white film that forms on your teeth and contains bacteria.

Hopefully this helps!

Which action is a sign of unhealthy personal boundaries

anygoal [31]

Answer:

Let's break this down a bit.

#A (not letting others define you) is actually a healthy boudary, so that can't be it.

#C (speaking up when you are treated poorly) is definately a Healthy boundary too, so it's not C.

and #D (giving only as much as you are comfortable with) is yet another Healthy boundary.

#B (feeling bad when you say no) Is an unhealthy behavieral (can't spell:) ) trait, and if your answer isn't A,C, or D, then it's B. Sorry if I seemed belittling, it took me a sad amount of time to figure it out so I thought I'd explaine it.

I hope it helps!

2. Forms in your outer ear and is meant to protect your ear from dirt and infection – cerumen

3. Receives sounds and sends them through the auditory canal to the eardrum - outer ear

4. A thin membrane that transmits sound waves into the middle ear – eardrum

5. Where the cochlea is - inner ear

6. A snail-shaped organ lined with hair cells. – cochlea

7. Inside, small bones transmit sound waves from the eardrum to the inner ear - middle ear

8. Destroyed by extended exposure to loud noise - hair cells

Explanation:

During hearing, sound waves are received by the outer ear and pass it on to the ear drum through the external auditory canal.

The sound waves upon hitting the eardrum makes it to vibrate and the vibrations are passed on the ossicles of the middle ear. The sound waves are amplified by the ossicles and passes to the inner ear where it reaches the cochlea.

The sensory hair cells in the basilar membranes of the inner ear move the sound wave and also help to create electric signal which is received by the auditory nerves.

These signals are received by the brain where the sound waves are processed.
