What are the proper ways to measure liquid ingredients, and solid/dry ingredients
__Dry and Liquid Measurements__
Explanation:
Density is defined as a material per unit volume of the material.
The determination of the density of a liquid with an aerometer is based on the principle of Archimedes' law: "Any object that is immersed in a liquid will experience a lift which is equal to the weight of the liquid being moved".
The aerometer is in the form of a hollow cylinder, so that the aerometer can be immersed in the right position (the scale is immersed in liquid), then the aerometer is filled with Pb grains. The scale on the aerometer shows the density of the liquid, the smaller the density of the liquid, the deeper the aerometer will be. Therefore the aerometer scale shows an increasing number from top to bottom.

What are Native American and smallpox?The Europeans who arrived carried diseases that the locals were not familiar with. The diseases that the Europeans believed to be widespread killed the locals because they lacked immunity. They also brought horses, firearms, and booze.
These had the result of altering the Native Americans' way of life. Native American inhabitants experienced a wide range of diseases, frequently from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries.
As a result of their lack of prior exposure to many of the diseases, including syphilis, smallpox, measles, mumps, and bubonic plague, Native Americans lacked much immunity.
Therefore, the correct option is C.

[AP Human Geography] What motivates technological change in agriculture?
No rush, just need a little help on some homework. Its an open ended question so I just need some ideas on how to form my answer! Thanks :)
Answer:
Land-Augmenting Technological Change: As is known land is inelastic in its supply, therefore, some techniques might help to augment land availability. Thus, the biological, chemical and technical changes introduced in agriculture are referred as land-augmenting technological change. Farmers and others who come in contact with air, water, and soils polluted by chemical fertilizers and pesticides may face negative health consequences, for instance. By impacting components of the ecosystem, these practices affect the health of plants and animals living within the ecosystem with can spark wants and needs for change in technological argriculture.

Explanation:
(1) Movies and TV shows often depict parents attempting to get their sleepy teenagers out of bed and out the door in time for school. (2) Provided that it’s a scene commonly played for laughs, in reality, sleep deprivation in teenagers is no laughing matter. (3) Adolescents have unique sleep patterns, and with an early school start, many are doggedly tired, leading to serious health and safety risks. (4) Thus, middle and high schools across the United States should heed the advice of doctors and start classes no earlier than 8:30 a.m.
(5) Contrary to the notion that teenagers are naturally sluggish, they have a biological excuse for having trouble getting up at 5:00 or 6:00 a.m.: adolescents undergo a shift in their circadian rhythm, making it harder for them to fall asleep as early as adults or younger children. (6) The typical sleep cycle for teenagers begins at 11:00 p.m., when their bodies release melatonin, the sleep-inducing hormone. (7) In order for teenagers to get the full nine hours of sleep they need for optimal performance, they would have to sleep in until 8:00 a.m.
(8) Now that experts better understand the sleep needs of adolescents, the average teenager gets fewer than seven hours of sleep a night. (9) Not only that, but waking before 8:00 a.m. interrupts their REM sleep, a critical stage of sleep that enables emotional regulation.
(10) Indeed, continual sleep deprivation is bad. (11) Teenagers who get inadequate sleep are more likely to be overweight, have depression, perform poorly in school, and engage in risky behaviors. (12) Moreover, drowsy teenagers behind the wheel of a car are more likely to have slower reflexes and impaired judgment, putting them at even greater risk.
(13) Schools that have pushed back the start time have reported remarkable results, including better academic performance, reduced absenteeism, and improved classroom environment. (14) It’s no mystery why; well rested students have better concentration, attention, and behavior.
In sentence 3 (reproduced below), the writer wants to ensure that the connotation of the underlined word is appropriate to the context of the sentence.
Adolescents have unique sleep patterns, and with an early school start, many are doggedly tired, leading to serious health and safety risks.
Which of the following versions of the underlined word would best accomplish this goal? (The Underlined word from the sentence above is doggedly.)
(as it is now)
A

B
relentlessly
C

E
Answer:
D) Chronically
Explanation:
The word “chronically” is used to describe states that are repeated and long-lasting, and it is often used in medical contexts. This choice therefore has the most appropriate denotative and connotative meaning in a discussion of health and safety risks.

Answer:
A farmer would chose a luxury crop over a high caloric or nutritionally valued crop because a luxury crop would generate them more profit.
These are non-subsistence crops, ones that are not necessary to survive and be healthy, but luxury goods like the name implies. People are willing to pay more for them for this reason.
Answer:
Some modern farmers will occasionally allow fields to lie fallow to rest, but crop rotation has helped to increase productivity by replacing fallow periods with growing different crops that replenish soil nutrients. Crop rotation also helps to battle against the forces of erosion.
After deciding what to grow, farmers often till the land by loosening the soil and mixing in fertilizers, which are nutrient rich. Then, they sow seeds or plant seedlings. When the crops are growing, farmers must water (or rely on rainfall), weed and kill crop pests.
A “luxury crop” is a crop that is grown to serve some purpose other than sustaining human life. All of these crops are consumed for reasons other than nutrition and so are called “luxury crops.”

A. the same environment at about the same time.
B. the same environment at different times.
C. different environments at about the same time.
D. different environments at different times.
Answer:
A. the same environment at about the same time.
Explanation:
Radioactive elements have a half-life (decay time) and a decay rate which is dependent on the decay constant. These informations when properly obtained can be used to determine the age of any historical monument or material such as earth, rocks, animals, plants, etc., because the parent material decays into a stable daughter elements at a constant decay rate.
In this scenario, a fossil discovered in Colorado dates from the early Mesozoic era. A year later a similar fossil is found in Wyoming that also dates from the early Mesozoic era. Therefore, these two organisms most likely lived in the same environment at about the same time.
Even though the fossils were obtained in different locations (Colorado and Wyoming), the singular fact that they were similar and dated back to the same Mesozoic era suggest that the two organisms most likely lived in the same environment at about the same time before one of them migrated.

Positive reinforcement:
Negative reinforcement:
Positive punishment:
Negative punishmnet
Answer:
a.)
Operant conditioning -
It is a type of learning in which a person learns from consequences ( which may be positive or negative ) that follows person's behavior.
The procedures which encourage the person to do the things the same way he/ she used to do are called reinforcement,
The procedures which discourage the person to do the things the same way he/ she used to do are called punishment.
b.)

Positive Reinforcement -
If Ryan eats without dropping off his food from the plate , it will be encouraging for him if Jim and Kelly appreciate him or buy gifts for him.
Negative Reinforcement -
If Ryan eats without dropping off his food from the plate , it will be encouraging for him if Jim and Kelly should avoid that behavior due to which Ryan is not learning the table manners.
For example - The scolding of Jim or Kelly when Ryan's is dropping off the food on the floor.
Positive Punishments -
If Ryan eats with dropping off his food from the plate , it will be encouraging for him if Jim and Kelly will add some consequences which Ryan will hate.
For example - If Ryan is eating with dropping off the food and Jim or Kelly yells at Ryan for his bad behavior.
Negative Punishments -

Genealogy is the study of families and ancestors. People who study genealogy are called genealogists. They use birth records, marriage licenses, real estate purchases, death certificates, and military enlistments to trace ancestors and family trees. Most genealogists are hobbyists who only follow their own family names as far back into history as possible. However, there are professional genealogists who can trace the lives of well-known people or royalty back for generations.
Originally, the government of ancient Rome kept censuses and tax records, but most of that information is lost. After the establishment of the Catholic Church, most people in Europe kept track of their ancestors through church and parish congregation rolls. In other civilized parts of the world, the procedure was similar. However, in less civilized cultures, it was difficult to keep track of family lines, and most of the family trees were kept orally, with names passed down from parent to child. Occasionally, cultures composed songs and poems to remember ancestors.
After the invention of the printing press, things became much simpler to keep track of family lines. When the Bible was mass produced, most families kept a copy and handed it down through generations. Births, marriages, and deaths were recorded in the family Bible, so families began to trace their kinship through writing. The printing press also allowed government agencies to keep better record of municipal and state censuses. Human beings began to leave more of a paper trail through the centuries.
With the creation and use of the World Wide Web, genealogy has exploded. Everyone with an internet connection has easy access to government databases and library records dating back hundreds of years. Social networking websites cater to amateur genealogists and make it simple to assemble a family tree with a little help. Now it is entirely possible to access records across oceans and continents without having to travel to a foreign place to research in a library or office. As people’s lives become more recorded, tracing genealogies will be as simple as pushing a button or flipping a switch.
Which question is most likely raised by this article?
A.
Who is the leading genealogist in the world today?
B.
Where can a person find an antique printing press?
C.
What do genealogists have to look forward to in the future?
D.
Why is it important to research your family tree?
Answer:
C.
What do genealogists have to look forward to in the future?
Explanation:
After reading the article, the reader learns about the history of genealogy dating to as far back as ancient Rome. The various ways by which ancient people kept and traced records were highlighted in the text. The writer records this chronology down to our present generation were the World Wide Web has made the keeping of records even simpler.
At this point, and after reading the last paragraph where the writer assumes that soon tracing genealogies will be as simple as pushing a button, the reader might now wonder the new inventions that would be possible in the future and that would make the tracing of genealogies even easier.

(1) If you live in a city, you may have seen references to sister cities in other countries and wondered what the designation means—or whether it really matters. (2) In fact, sister-city programs can matter a great deal: when effectively cultivated, they bring people together to create mutually beneficial cultural and economic ties.
(3) Sister-city partnerships were developed to foster international cooperation after the Second World War, and they continue to serve this purpose today. (4) Many of the earliest relationships were between cities that had previously been at war. (5) Nevertheless, the English city of Bristol and the German city of Hanover formed a partnership in 1947, with Bristol shipping relief supplies to Hanover and Hanover sending musicians to perform in Bristol. (6) The partnership evolved to include an educational exchange that continues to give English and German students experience in another culture.
(7) Such relationships provide an important complement to diplomacy carried out between governments. (8) Governments can forge alliances between countries, but these acts do not necessarily encourage feelings of closeness between the countries’ citizens. (9) What’s more, as Mary Kane of Sister Cities International notes, “Foreign affairs doesn’t have to be done just by the State Department.” (10) By conveying international relations into people’s lives, sister cities make connections with distant places feel real to citizens.
(11) Although the potential benefits of sister cities are great, they can’t be taken for granted. (12) Without active participation from community groups, local government, and ordinary citizens, the relationships can fall into neglect. (13) But with engagement from community stakeholders, sister-city programs provide a gratifying and profitable connection to the wider world.
(14) Because trust and understanding are essential to business things, the feelings of closeness that connect sister cities can translate into economic benefits. (15) This dynamic is illustrated in the sister-city relationship between Muscatine, Iowa, and Zhengding County in China. (16) In 1985, Xi Jinping visited Muscatine on a research trip to study soybean farming. (17) When Xi later became president of China, his personal connection to Muscatine formed the basis for the sister-city relationship, which in turn led to Chinese investment in Muscatine’s hospitality and tourism industries.
The writer wants to replace the underlined word in sentence 14 (reproduced below) with a more precise word, taking into account the context of the paragraph.

What is true about the insanity defense?
a. It is defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.
b. It can be used only if a person is diagnosed with a specific disorder from the DSM.
c. It is a legal term used to determine if a person can be held accountable for a crime.
d. It is a legal term that helps to determine if a person committed a crime or not.
e. It cannot be used if a person was previously found to be responsible for a different crime.
Answer:
E.
Explanation:
The insanity defense is a legal term used by the defendant to plead in a criminal case. In the insanity defense, the defendant takes responsibility for his/her actions but pleads not to be held guilty due to lack of mental stability. The defendant is held guilty under the insanity defense if his/her mental illness is proved. This verdict is known as 'Guilty but Mentally Ill (GBMI).
The statement which is true regarding the insanity defense is that the insanity defense can not be used by the defendant if he/she is previously held guilty or responsible for a different criminal act.
Therefore, option E is correct.

How do I find the thickness of rectangular object using only:
sides of 54.2 cm and 12.3 cm
density of 1.3 g/cm^3
mass of 11.4 grams
I believe this is right. Someone feel free to verify my work/methods.
Answer:
W = 0.01315 cm
Explanation:
So, thickness is another way to say "width". You can calculate this by finding the volume of the rectangular object.
Let us take a look at the density formula:
Density = mass/volume
We have the mass AND the density, but not the volume.
1.3 g/cm^3= 11.4 g/ v
Solve for the "v" (volume).
You should get:
v = mass/density
v = 11.4 g/ 1.3 g/cm^3
v = 8.769 cm^3
Now, let us recall the formula for volume.
v = length x width x height
We have two of these.
8.769 cm^3 = 54.2 cm x 12.3 cm x (W)
8.769 cm^3 = 666.66 cm^2 x W
W = 8.769 cm^3 / 666.66 cm^2
W = 0.01315 cm
