Answer: Ozone is considered as chief polluting gas.

Explanation:

The ozone is a ground level pollutant. It is a colorless gas. It causes irritation in the eyes and respiratory tract. It is one of the components of smog as it causes pollution in the atmosphere. It is produced by the two primary pollutants that are nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds when they react with the sunlight. The ozone makes the air irrespirable. It is the main cause of throat irritation, labored breath, pain in chest and also responsible for respiratory diseases. It reduces the body's ability against infection. The ozone depleting substances like aerosol, chlorofluorocarbon are widening the ozone depleting zone as halides present in these substances react with the ozone causing depletion. This allows the entry of harmful ultraviolet radiation penetrating the atmospheric layers.

Solve for x 65 10 55 8<br><br>I already completed this quiz, the answer was 8.
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

x = 10

Explanation:

Based on the theorem of angles formed by two intersecting chords, thus:

Angle formed/vertex angle = ½(sum of intercepted arcs)

Angle formed/vertex angle = 60°

Sum of intercepted arcs = 55 + 5x + 15 = 5x + 70

Therefore:

60 = ½(5x + 70)

Multiply both sides by 2

60*2 = 5x + 70

120 = 5x + 70

120 - 70 = 5x

50 = 5x

Divide both sides by 5

50/5 = x

10 = x

x = 10

Summarize the goals of Botswana's "Treatment, Prevention, Testing" policy to combat the spread of HIV/AIDS. i have stds
Natalka [10]

<u>Explanation:</u>

Botswana is an African nation where over 23% of population is infected with HIV. The government introduced prevention, treatment and testing strategy to address this serious issue. The goal of this program is to bring HIV infections under control in the country and reduce the chances of further infections.

According to the ‘treat all’ program every person who is tested to be <em>HIV positive</em> is given immediate treatment. All infected persons are given free Anti Retroviral Treatment for a lifetime. The government’s active measures could successfully reduce the infections that spread from affected mother to infants.

Testing measures have changed form from voluntary testing to routine testing and then to compulsory testing. Compulsory testing is sometimes blamed for increasing the stigma about the disease. But these measures help the people to know their status and reduce the number of people living without knowing they are HIV positive.
