Answer: hepatitis C.

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, it's most likely that the person has been exposed to hepatitis C.

Hepatitis C is an infection that is caused when a virus attacks the liver which leads to the inflammation of the liver. Since the person reaches the scene of a car accident, it's possible that the EMT got in contact with the contaminated blood. In this case, he most likely have been exposed to hepatitis C.

Answer:

1. telescope

2. astronomers

3. radio waves

Explanation:

A telescope allows one to magnify what they're looking at to see it closer than it actually is. Astronomers are those that study planets, stars, and other celestial bodies in space. Modern telescopes have the ability to detect radio waves from astronomical objects that emit them from far away.  This allows us to see what we normally would not be able to.

What are the components of a lipid?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer: D

Explanation:

<u>Lipids are made of carbons bound to hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen groups; the unequal sharing of electrons around the oxygen (carboxyl) and nitrogen (amino) groups cause the molecule to fold up on itself and form different shapes that affect the function of the molecule in the living organism. </u>
