Answer:
Option A, Glucose metabolism in the fetal brain increased
Explanation:
Usage of cocaine during pregnancy is prohibited. However, in case if cocaine is taken it disrupts the metabolism as it increases brain glucose metabolism to the level of an adult human being. Since glucose metabolism in brain is a sensitive process, any disruption in it can lead to unaccounted effects such as dysfunctional circulation, and pharmacological effect. Cocaine increases the dopamine by blocking the dopamine transporters thereby increasing the Vmax. Since the brain of a child has all kind of neurochemical components, cocaine intakes by a pregnant woman produces reinforcing effects in brain of fetus and also make it pharmacologically active
Hence, option A is correct
C. hypothesis. He is giving a possible answer to the question "why did the celery crisp when placed in water?"
The graph of y = -2x + 3 is a straight line
Its slope is - 2
Its y-intercept is + 3
To draw the line you can use these two points (0,3) and (3/2 , 0)
This line does ont pass through the third quadrant. It comes downward from the second quadrant, touches the y-axis at y =3, continues on the rirst quadrant, touches the x-axis at x = 3/2, and contiues into the fourth quadrant.
Graph of its inverse
Exchange y and x in the given function and solve for the new y
x = - 2y + 3 => y = - x/2 + 3/2
It is also a straight line;
Its slope is -1/2
Its y-intercept is 3/2
It is also in the second, first and fourth quadrant
Use these two points to draw the line (0,3/2) and (3,0).
You do not need to know to draw this, but the inverse of a function is its reflection through the line y =x.
<u>Answer</u>: c. Natural gas.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- <em>Natural gas</em> is a fossil fuel and thus a<em> non-renewable resource.</em>
- Natural gas is widely used for the purpose of heating, cooking, and generation of electricity.
- The process of formation of natural gas takes place over millions of years from decomposing plant and animal material subjected to heat and pressure.
<em>Thus, natural gas cannot be used for the conservation of resources.</em>
