Answer: a. 2.54 cm ( the number of centimeters in exactly 1 in) and c. 4 choices ( the number of choices in this list)

Justification:

1) a. 2.54 cm ( the number of centimeters in exactly 1 in)

Although the exact length of one inch has varied in the past, currently the inch is defined as exactly 2.54 cm, so this is an exact number.

b. 56.00 s ( a time measured by a stopwatch)

The time measured by a stopwatch is not an exact number. The number is limited by the precision of the instrument (the stopwatch) and it migh have been 56.004 instead of 56.00, and the stopwatch cannot shoe that. So, this is not an exact number.

c. 4 choices ( the number of choices in this list)

This is, indeed an exact number. It is 4, not 4.1, nor 3.9, nor any other number.

d. 3 lbs ( the weight of an object measured on a scale )

As reasoned with the stopwatch, this measure, 3 lbs, is subject to the precision of the scale. It is not an exact number. It could be other number close to 3: 2.99 for example.

These are exact numbers: c. 4 choices ( the number of choices in this list) and d. 3 lbs ( the weight of an object measured on a scale )

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The exact number is a value that is known with complete certainty. Examples are counted numbers of objects or certain unit conversions such as exactly 3 feet in 1 yard. Another example is, a dozen is defined as 12 objects, and a pound is defined as 16 ounces.

Fraction an exact number is a fraction takes two integers and places them in a ratio, for example 3/4 or 10/15. A decimal can express the same numerical quantity, but it does so with a single number (like 0.75 or 0.66). So, the fraction makes the relationship among numbers clear in the way it is written.

While a decimal can express the same numerical quantity, but it does so with a single number (like 0.75 or 0.66).

a. 2.54 cm ( the number of centimeters in exactly 1 in) is decimal

b. 56.00 s ( a time measured by a stopwatch) is not exact numbers

c. 4 choices ( the number of choices in this list) is exact numbers

d. 3 lbs ( the weight of an object measured on a scale ) is exact numbers

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

D.Maximum internal cooking temperature

Explanation:

According to the Storage Ladder Protocol, food storage in refrigerator should have a proper rules to store them. On the top most shelf, Prepared foods should be kept. On the second shelf, Fruits and Vegetable are kept. Fish and Sea foods are kept on the third shelf. The fourth shelf is reserved for the Beef and Porks. The next shelf is for Ground Meat. The last shelf is for Poultry items. So, this proves that the Ground Beef should be stored above the Chicken. A diagram is attached below to explain the storage order in a more appropriate manner.

State with reasons, whether sulphur dioxide is acting as an oxidizing agent or a reducing agent in each of the following reactio

evablogger [386]

Answer:

A) oxidizing agent is SO2

B) NaClO is the oxidizing agent

Explanation:

A) This is a redox reaction in which oxidation and reduction occur simultaneously.

Thus, in 2H2S(g) + SO2(g) -> 2H2O(l) + 3S(s);

H2S is reduced as follows;

H2S → S + 2H+ + 2e−

We can see that SO2 has been reduced while H2S gets oxidized since it has changed state from - 2 to 0 . Thus sulphur dioxide is the oxidizing agent.

B) SO2(g) + H2O(l) + NaClO(aq) -> NaCl(aq) + H2SO4(aq)

In this, SO2 undergoes oxidation and NaClO is the oxidizing agent

Which statement is not an example of intercellular communication?

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

D: A white blood cell produces antibodies.

Explanation:

Intercellular communication is defined as the process of communication that occurs between the two cells of the same organism.

Now, these two cells relate which each other when a signal reception receives a single molecule at a distance that could be short or long which in turn produces a cellular response.

Thus, looking at the options, the correct answer is Option D.
