Why is this flower able to self-pollinate
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

A flower is self-pollinated if pollen is transferred to it from any flower of the same plant and cross-pollinated if the pollen comes from a flower on a different plant.

Explanation:

This is because each flower is capable of fertilizing itself by autogamy. Autogamy means that the male part of a flower sends pollen to the female part of the same flower.

A field worker is exposed to a xylene for a duration of 8 weeks at 40 hrs/wk. The concentration of xylene in the workplace is 40
Andrej [43]

Answer:

The chronic daily intake during the period of exposure is most nearly 0.012 mg/kg day.

Explanation:

Number of hours worker exposed to xylene = 40 hr/week\times 8 week = 320 hours

The concentration of xylene in the workplace =40 \mu g/m^3

The worker is inhaling air at a rate of 0.9 m^3/hr.

Amount xylene inhaled by worker in an hour :

= 40\mu g/m^3\times 0.9 m^3/hr=36 \mu g/hr

Amount xylene inhaled by worker in 320 hours:

36 \mu g/hr\times 320 hr=11,520 \mu g=11,520\times 0.001 mg=11.520 mg

1 μg = 0.001 mg

Amount xylene inhaled by worker in 320 hours = 11.520 mg

1 day = 24 hours

Amount xylene inhaled by worker in 1 day:

\frac{24}{320}\times 11.520 mg=0.864 mg

Assuming 70 kg body mass, the chronic daily intake of xylene :

\frac{0.864 mg/day}{70 kg}=0.01234 mg/ kg day\approx 0.012 mg/ kg day

The chronic daily intake during the period of exposure is most nearly 0.012 mg/kg day.
