<span><u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Parasites

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
Parasites are a type of <u>pathogen</u> that survive by hitchhiking a host. They usually do this as they perceive the host as type of protection for them in order to survive.

Beside this protection, the host provides these parasites with the necessary nutrition as they feed directly from the host.
<u>They can feed on different parts from the hosts including:</u>
1- the digestion as in case of tapeworm
2- brain tissue as in case of brain-eating ameoba
3- blood

Parasites' presence in the host's body can alter the functionalities and processes within the body and cause sickness.

Hope this helps :)</span>

I would say that the bacteria who live inside one's gut would constitute very small organisms that are extremely small and inhabit the gut as home and also feed off it to survive and in this case probably have a symbiotic relationship with our bodies as they help us to break down and digest food.

In two or more complete sentences, explain how to calculate the amount of energy that is transferred when 150 g of cooper cools
ella [17]

Answer:

-2,438 J energy is released

Heat energy is released

Explanation:

The formula for energy absorbed or released is Q = mT(Cp)

Get temperature in degrees T = 21 - 63  = -42°C

Mass of the cooling cooper m = 150g

Specific heat of copper Cp = 0.387J/g-°C

Put all the above parameters into the formula for energy absorbed or released

Q = mT(Cp)

    = 150 x -42(0.387)

    = -2438J  same as -2.438 KJ

-2438J energy is released

By mistake, you added salt instead of sugar to the oil. How can you remove the salt?
shutvik [7]

Answer,

Add water to dissolve the salt solution.Shake the solution,oil and water are immiscible liquids therefore oil will not dissolve.Put the solution in a separating funnel and leave the solution undisturbed for a few minutes.Water is denser than oil there oil will come to the top.Power the lower layer of water in to a beaker.Boil the water until water turns into vapour leaving the salt behind.

Describe how the Rube Goldberg device design that you created follows the law of conservation of energy. Be sure to include both
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Following are the explanation of the Rube Goldberg device:

Explanation:

According to the Rube Goldberg devices, which conform with "the energy conservation law," choose a chain of events to carry out such a basic task differently, for this unit, a range of instant theatrical resources are converted into possible energy. It is also responsive to an energy conservation law.

  • It is the unit that produces theatrical power when quartz falls off from the roof. Instead, its marble hits or falls into a plastic bottle, its velocity converted into potential energy which lifts its soda bottle. Its next marble, when the stone came in contact with it, can pass angular momentum to some other marble. Its gravitational force of quartz drops. It has been built into kinetic energy, distributed only to Nando.
  • All energy of every domino becomes passed to another in a domino effect before the last one takes its contraption off because as the mousetrap gets off, all of the stored potential energy is released and the cutters were also removed. Its sequence which binds its puck is cut, which also frees the ballon as well as stores its electricity.

Adding a few drops of a strong acid to water will lower the pH appreciably. However, adding the same number of drops to a buffer
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Buffers are resistant to high pH changes.

Explanation:

This perfectly explains the reason why we use buffers. Buffers are substances which consist of a weak acid and its conjugate base. Buffers are resistant to significant pH changes upon addition of strong acids or bases. To illustrate this, let's say we have a buffer consisting of 0.1 mol of HF, a weak acid, and 0.1 mol of NaF (fluoride is a conjugate base of HF).

  • Let's say we add some strong acid, in a general form, this acid would be represented as H_3O^+. In this case, conjugate base will react and neutralize it to produce some amount of HF: H_3O^+ (aq) + F^- (aq)\rightarrow HF (aq) + H_2O (l).
  • Similarly, if we add some strong base OH^-, the acidic component will react with it to produce some amount of conjugate base: HF (aq) + OH^- (aq)\rightarrow F^- (aq) + H_2O (l). The ratio of HF to NaF in this case is held around the same value for addition of small amounts of strong acids/bases, so pH is kept almost constant, while in neutral water, pH would drastically increase or decrease.
