this sight is to help solve problems where you have attempted the problem already. Most students ask 1 question.. This sight is not meant to answer your review. Please use this sight only when necessary

1. False. Diarrhea can be caused by a change in diet, food poisoning, infections, or certain medications, but it is not typically caused by different minerals in the water. To determine the cause of diarrhea, it is important to consider other factors such as recent changes in diet, infection risks, etc.

2. False. Fusion, the process of combining atomic nuclei to form a heavier nucleus, does not produce less radioactivity than fission. Both fusion and fission processes can result in the release of radiation, but the specifics depend on the elements involved and the conditions of the reaction.

3. True. In underdeveloped areas, it is generally recommended to eat only cooked vegetables as raw vegetables may be contaminated with harmful bacteria or parasites. Cooking vegetables can help kill any potential pathogens and reduce the risk of foodborne illnesses.

4. False. The kilogram is the basic unit of mass in the metric system, not weight. Weight is a measure of the gravitational force acting on an object, whereas 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, as each nation has its own unique resources, expertise, and cultural perspectives that can contribute to global progress and development.

6. False. The mass of an object is not dependent upon gravity. Mass is an intrinsic property of an object and is constant regardless of the gravitational force acting on it. Weight, on the other hand, is directly influenced by gravity and can vary depending on the gravitational pull of a particular location.

7. False. There is still gravitational attraction on an astronaut who is orbiting the Earth. While the astronaut may be in a constant state of free fall around the Earth, gravity is still present and is the force that keeps the astronaut in orbit.

8. False. Antimalarial drugs do not provide immunity to the disease. They help prevent and treat malaria by reducing the number of parasites in the body, but they do not confer long-term immunity. It is still possible to be re-infected with malaria after taking antimalarial drugs.

9. False. Hypothermia and sunstroke are two different medical conditions with distinct causes and symptoms. Hypothermia refers to a dangerously low body temperature, typically caused by exposure to extreme cold, while sunstroke, also known as heat stroke, occurs when the body overheats due to prolonged exposure to hot temperatures.

10. True. The world's longest continuous mountain ridge is indeed located under the ocean. It is known as the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and stretches for approximately 14,000 miles through the Atlantic Ocean.

11. True. All isotopes of carbon have 6 protons, as this is the defining characteristic of carbon. Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons, but the number of protons remains constant.

12. 0.6 kilometers = 600 meters

13. 50 milliliters = 0.05 liters

14. 0.4 kilograms = 400 grams

15. The base unit used in the metric system for mass is the kilogram.

16. The process that supplies material for the upbuilding of a continent is the weathering 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. Smallpox is the disease that the World Health Organization believed had been eradicated worldwide.

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 point to relatively young continents.

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.
