The correct answer would be that substance A is rice, and substance B is sugar.

For substance A to be filtered out, it means that A is a water-insoluble substance and for substance B to be recoverable by evaporating off the water, it means that B is water-soluble.

Thus, A can neither be sugar nor alcohol because neither can be recovered by filtration. Also, B can neither be coffee nor alcohol because they can not be recovered as residue through evaporation of water.

Therefore, the only correct answer is that substance A is rice, and substance B is sugar because rice can be filtered out from water while the water-soluble sugar can be recovered by evaporating the water.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Yes, it is possible because, if the sperm from the male goes into the egg of the female it can cause the female to get pregnant by that male. And its very rare for the female not to get pregnant after having inter course with the male. That's only if they had unprotected sex.

I hope this helps you!

Mila [183]

Answer:

Structure: unicellular organisms (single-celled), no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles, genetic material usually composed of a single circular bacterial chromosome coiled up in a region of the cytoplasm

Function: metabolic functions are carried out in the bacterial cytoplasm

Replication: generally asexual (binary fission)

Explanation:

Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms, i.e., unicellular organisms that do not have a cell nucleus nor any membrane-bound organelles . Generally, the genetic material is composed of a single DNA circular molecule (bacterial chromosome), which is localized in a specific region of the cytoplasm (nucleoid region). Prokaryotic cells are usually smaller than eukaryotic cells (0.1 - 5 μm in size). In bacteria, metabolic functions (i.e., growth and reproduction) occur in the cytoplasm. The most important process of reproduction in bacteria is binary fission, a form of asexual reproduction where a single bacterial cell divides into two. Bacteria can also exchange genetic material by sexual reproduction mechanisms (i.e., conjugation, transformation and transduction). The main strategy to prevent outbreaks caused by bacteria is to know the conditions where they grow and reproduce. For example, <em>Salmonella</em> is a genus of infectious bacteria that may cause an outbreak. <em>Salmonella</em> infection may be prevented by eliminating conditions where they can multiply. Measures to prevent <em>Salmonella</em> outbreaks include cook food thoroughly (do not eat raw eggs or raw beef), refrigerate foods, wash hands, etc.
