I don't understand. yal give answers to evryone else on here.
Hey i would help you its just that im not good at science sorry
1. True. Diarrhea can indeed be caused by a change in diet and different minerals in the water. This can lead to gastrointestinal issues and an upset stomach.
2. False. Fusion actually produces more energy and radioactivity than fission. Fusion reactions involve the merging of atomic nuclei to form a heavier nucleus, while fission reactions involve the splitting of atomic nuclei into lighter nuclei.
3. True. In underdeveloped areas, uncooked or raw vegetables may be contaminated with bacteria or parasites that can cause illness. Cooking vegetables helps kill these harmful organisms, making them safer to consume.
4. False. The kilogram is actually the basic unit of mass, not weight, in the metric system. Weight is a measure of gravitational force acting on an object, while mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object.
5. True. Every nation has something to develop for the world's benefit. Each nation possesses unique resources, knowledge, and culture that can contribute to global progress and cooperation.
6. True. Mass is indeed dependent upon gravity. The weight of an object is dependent on the force of gravity acting on it, and weight is directly proportional to mass.
7. False. Even though an astronaut orbiting the Earth may experience the sensation of weightlessness, there is still gravitational attraction between the astronaut and the Earth. It is this gravitational force that keeps the astronaut in orbit.
8. False. Antimalarial drugs do not provide immunity to the disease. They are used for prevention and treatment of malaria, but they do not confer long-term immunity. Consistent use of antimalarial measures, such as insect repellent and bed nets, is necessary to prevent malaria.
9. False. Hypothermia and sunstroke are two completely different conditions. Hypothermia occurs when the body loses heat faster than it can produce, resulting in abnormally low body temperature. Sunstroke, on the other hand, is a form of heatstroke caused by prolonged exposure to high temperatures and can lead to dangerously elevated body temperature.
10. True. The world's longest continuous mountain ridge is indeed located under the ocean. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge stretches approximately 16,000 kilometers across the Atlantic Ocean and is created by tectonic plate separation.
11. True. All isotopes of carbon have 6 protons, as the number of protons defines an element's atomic number. However, carbon isotopes can differ in the number of neutrons they possess.
12. 0.6 kilometers = 600 meters.
To convert kilometers to meters, you multiply by 1000.
0.6 km * 1000 = 600 meters.
13. 50 milliliters = 0.05 liters.
To convert milliliters to liters, you divide by 1000.
50 ml / 1000 = 0.05 liters.
14. 0.4 kilograms = 400 grams.
To convert kilograms to grams, you multiply by 1000.
0.4 kg * 1000 = 400 grams.
15. The base unit used in the metric system for mass is the kilogram.
16. The process which supplies material for the upbuilding of a continent is folding of existing mountains and dry land.
17. The sun and its family of planets, satellites, and planetoids is called the solar system.
18. Mass is the amount of matter in a substance.
19. An orbiting satellite in a constant state of free-fall toward the Earth.
20. The disease that the World Health Organization believed had been eradicated worldwide is smallpox.
21. The bulk of geologic evidence indicates that the Earth’s crust has been formed by unique, rapid catastrophic processes.
22. Geologists believe that the continents were once one large land mass.
23. The mass of an astronaut in space will be the same as on Earth.
24. When bitten by an animal, one should consider rabies injections if the animal is not found.
25. The two sources of new materials involved in geologic processes are magma and erosion products.
26. Weight is a force.
27. The gravitational force on a space probe between Earth and Mars is small.
28. Most geologists have traditionally believed that the Earth's crustal features have formed slowly.
29. The current measured erosion rates correspond to very slow processes.
30. A light-year is a measure of distance.
31. The nucleus of an atom is split by collision with a high-speed particle.
32. There still remains a vast amount of land to be inhabited all over the Earth.
