Answer 1

Answer:

It is beneficial to study plant and animal compounds for a multitude of reasons such as Sanitation, Bacterial fighting, and many more. An example of a plant compound that has benefited humanity would be penicillin which is derived from plants, it is considered the first true antibiotic.

Explanation:

Before 1928, humanity had conquered most of its enemies and people were only limited in lifespan by internal mechanisms being disrupted or failing, such as cancer, genetic errors,viruses, and BACTERIA. But in 1928 by accident a scientist discovered penicillin and finally deaths by bacteria were dropping to the point where in the past a mere cut could mean death by bacterial infection when compared to the present, humanity now doesn’t even consider bacterial infection, and that is all due to the power of penicillin and other antibiotics.

Water is a polar compound because there is a positive hydrogen end and a negative oxygen end, this is caused by an uneven electron distribution
