Limestone.

It is a sedimentary rock composed of calcite and aragonite. It is used as a building material mainly because it is easily available and easy to work with.

Limestone is used in the manufacture of steel as it is the primary raw material that helps to remove impurities from the iron ore and produces waste matter  that has low melting point and viscosity

Lunna [17]

Answer:

1. Aorta

2. Left atrium

3. Right ventricle

4. The pulmonary artery

5. Left ventricle.

Explanation:

The aorta is the main artery of the body that carries the oxygen-rich blood to all the body parts except the lungs from the left ventricle. It is divided into main coronary arteries or blood vessels.

The left atrium is one of the heart chambers, it is located in the upper part of the heart on the right side that receives the oxygenated blood from the lungs through the pulmonary vein.

The right ventricle is the chamber of the heart that pumps the deoxygenated blood to the pulmonary valve to MPA to the lungs to get oxygenated.

The pulmonary artery or the main PA (MPA) carries the oxygen-depleted blood from the right ventricle into the lungs, where blood becomes oxygenated.

The Left ventricle is the thickest muscle chamber of the heart responsible for the pumping oxygen-rich blood to the circulatory system and to the body through the aorta.

*anatomy &amp; physiology question*
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

32 mm

Explanation:

The field of view is the total area visible through the microscope . The diameter of the field of view can be measured.

There is an inverse relationship between the magnification and the field diameter. As magnifications decreases, the field diameter increases by the same proportion, and as magnifications increases, the field diameter decreases by the same proportion.

The relationship between field diameter and magnification is:

magnification of A * field diameter of A = magnification of B * field diameter of B

120X * 8 mm = 30X * B

B = 120X / 30X * 8 mm

B = 32 mm = 32000 μm

The field diameter of 30X magnification is 32 mm (32000 μm)
