Answer:

plywoods boxes

Explanation:

Spraying the pesticides on plywood boxes seems a better alternative as this method is used to check the time it takes for the pesticide to dissipate.

Regulations will not allow a pesticide that is toxic to humans to be used inside houses unless the pesticide will dissipate completely from the air within eight hours after its application. One test that pesticide manufacturers standardly use to determine how quickly anti-termite pesticides dissipate involves spraying the pesticides on the walls of room-sized plywood boxes and then timing its dissipation.

Which of the following would it be most useful to know in order to evaluate whether a dissipation time of just under eight hours on the manufacturers’ test indicates that an anti-termite pesticide that is toxic to humans obeys regulations for use in houses?

A. Whether anti-termite pesticides dissipate more slowly in furnished rooms than in plywood boxes

B. Whether people who apply anti-termite pesticide standardly wear protective equipment that prevents them from being exposed to the pesticide

C. Whether people whose house is being treated with anti-termite pesticide generally know that they should remain out of their house during the hours immediately after the pesticide’s application

D. Whether there are anti-termite pesticides that are toxic to humans that, when subjected to the manufacturers’ test, dissipate completely from the air in the boxes in well under eight hours

E. Whether anti-termite pesticides that are not toxic to humans tend to take longer to dissipate than those that are toxic

Answer:

A. Whether anti-termite pesticides dissipate more slowly in furnished rooms than in  plywood boxes.

Explanation:

The fact that the test was done in box sized room and timed and  not in the actual room is a  comparative clue, because  the  time of dissipation  of the pesticides on the walls of the room size board should    be an indicator  to determine if the pesticide will be applicable to actual sized room or not.

Assuming the dissipation   time  on  the walls of  room size box  is less than 8 hrs then it is  applicable to be used in actual room. However if  it lasts longer  than 8 hrs,then it will have a toxic effects on the wall of the actual room, and therefore  not applicable.

Therefore in option A, : <u>Whether anti-termite pesticides dissipate more slowly in furnished rooms than in plywood boxes  </u> if the pesticides dissipation time on the walls of  room -sized board is less than 8 hrs, then for it to be used in the actual room the dissipation time should  also be lesser or 8 hrs in the actual room walls. However if the time to dissipate is greater than 8 hrs then it is not applicable therefore A is the best option .

Why is the use of stem cells so controversial?
ICE Princess25 [194]
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that could develop to perform a variety of tasks. One type of stem cell is the embrionic stem cell. There are also adult stem cells. To use embrionic stem cell you need to have fertilized embrios. These can be donated to research. The use of the embrionic stem cells is controversial for this reason.

How would the contractile vacuole of a freshwater amoeba respond if the organism was placed in seawater?
saw5 [17]

Correct answer: B). With fewer contractions


The main function of a contractile vacuole is to maintain the sufficient amount of water in the protoplasm of the cell. For the freshwater amoeba contractile vacuole is needed to pump water and maintain a osmoregulation.

But when it is kept in sea water, more contraction is required to expel the water out of the cell in order to make the environment inside amoeba same as of sea water.

Which of the following alternative engery technologies is most likey to be used to power a car?
puteri [66]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is Biofuel

Explanation:

Biofuel can be used as an alternative energy technology source to power a car.

The importance of using biofuel is that it causes less air pollution than fossil fuels, and  it has less effect on the global warming. Most importantly, it is produced from agricultural sources.

The biofuels that can be used are butanol,ethanol and biodiesel etc.

Wind, geothermal and hydropower can not be directly used to provide power to the car.

Hence, the correct answer to the question is that biofuel which can be used as an alternating technology to provide power to car.

Answer: Anaerobic respiration produces a relatively lesser amount of energy as compared to aerobic respiration, as glucose is not completely broken down in the absence of oxygen. In animal cells anaerobic respiration often occurs during exercise. The glucose does not get fully broken down in this process, so it does not release its full potential energy. Instead of carbon dioxide and water it breaks down to form lactic acid and a small amount of energy.
