Lorico [155]

When evacuating victims and personnel currently facing danger to their lives, an establishment should have a safe evacuation routes. The evacuation route should be placed in the Exclusion Zone which means that it is a large site with obstructions and not safe until the safety area is reached. Another would be developing the Contamination Reduction Zone which is designed for individuals that are facing chemical dangers. Decontamination while inside the building is inadvised but would be applied in the arrival to the said zone. An access to potential routes should be available. Obstructions like locks, blocked doors are inadvisable. Routes should be free from items that are not needed within the area. Also, multiple routes that are separated from each other is recommended for evacuating numerous amount of people at the same time or when fire blocks one, there would be another choice available.

Muscle cells contain numerous __________ to serve their high demand for atp.

Harrizon [31]

Muscle cells, also known as myocytes, contain numerous amounts of mitochondria inside of their cytoplasm. Mitochondria are organelles that are popularly known as the powerhouse of the cell because they function to process different biochemicals (such as glucose, oxygen, etc) and produce essentially Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). Kreb's Cycle in particular talks about energy production, and the mitochondria is one of the main units where this cycle happens. You can think of ATP as the currency of the body in terms of energy. The more ATP one has, the more energy there is available for use by the different systems of the body. Muscles in particular have high demand for ATP.

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

1. Option A

2. 56

Explanation:

Option A

Option A is not a valid answer for this question as it is given that out of eight rats only two rats are untrained. Thus, an output which shows more that two untrained rats i.s UUTTU is a wrong answer

$8C_5 = \frac{8!}{5!(8-5)!} \\8C_5 = \frac{8*7*6*5!}{5! * 3!} \\8C_5 = \frac{8*7*6}{3*2*1} \\8C_5 = 56$

Thus , there are 56 outcomes possible for this experiment
