Because metalloids are semiconductors. The fact that metalloids are brittle/shiny are only physical characteristics and wouldn’t be the reason why a metalloid would be helpful for designing a new computer processor. Amphoteric means that it’s able to react both as a base and as an acid, but since the computer processor has to have something to do with electricity, the second option would be the answer. Semiconductors are also helpful for electrical circuits, so that’s also why is would be best for the new computer processor.

Explain how healthcare professionals can attempt to equalize the unequal partnership.
Tpy6a [65]

Answer: The healthcare professionals can help equalize the unequal partnership between the adult patient and the provider by using preventive care services and promoting communication that can be directed to an institutional culture that normalizes appropriate assertive responses to stereotyping and ratifying adult patient’s life experience through health care personnel training. With this, they can educate both adult patient and the provider to become more mindful of cues that induce stereotypical thinking.

Large birds like pheasants often walk short distances. Small birds like chickadees never walk. They either hop or fly. Why might
nevsk [136]

Answer:

Large birds can't fly due to higher weight and weak wings.

Why large birds can't fly?

Large birds like pheasants often walk short distances whereas small birds like chickadees never walk but fly because the large birds have more weight which can't support by the wings to fly in the sky so they walk on the land instead of flying.

While on the other hand, small birds have lower weight and easily fly in the sky so they don't need to walk on the ground so we can conclude that large birds can't fly due to higher weight and weak wings.
