Answer:

a. amount of a pesticide that can be applied to a food and how much of the pesticide that is permitted to remain on the food in the marketplace.

Explanation:

Pesticides are chemical substances used to get rid of or kill pests that attack crops on farmlands. These pesticides, although help the farmer to get rid of his pest problem and likely have an increase in yield, are dangerous to human and animal health if consumed.

As set up by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), pesticide tolerance is the amount or quantity of pesticide chemical that can be applied to a food and how much of the pesticide that is permitted to remain on the food in the marketplace.

Which primary symptom does the nurse identify as a potentially fatal complication of epidural or intrathecal anesthesia?
Katyanochek1 [597]
The total blockade comes with the biggest potentially fatal complication of an epidural or intrathecal anesthesia. Many women choose this type of spinal epidural or intrathecal anesthesia during labor to block all labor pains. The primary symptom is hypotension. Hypotension is low blood pressure. Nausea is usually the first symptom of hypotension.  A nurse will be able to intervene when the vital machine shows the blood pressure dropping. This why hospitals always have someone connected throughout labor to a vital signs machine when having an epidural or intrathecal anesthesia.

If i show a dominant trait do one of my parents have to show the same trait? explain?​
Mama L [17]
Well, not exactly like some parents have blue eyes and they have a dominant brown eyed child. This can happen because of the gynotype. The history of the child’s parents probably have some brown eyes which caused the child to have brown eyes. But usually the parent does express a dominant trait like the child.
