When California recently (June 2015) passed a law banning the personal belief exemption of routine childhood vaccines Jim Carrey recently posted (June/July 2015) a series of tweets about thimerosal (a form of mercury) used as a preservative in vaccines. Is it true that there is no convincing scientific evidence that thimerosal causes harm by the low doses of thimerosal in vaccines, except for minor reactions like redness and swelling at the injection site?
Answer:
Yes, there is no convincing scientific evidence that thimerosal causes harm by the low doses of thimerosal in vaccines, except for minor reactions like redness and swelling at the injection site
Explanation:
Thimerosal has been used safely as a vaccine additive, added to some vaccines to prevent germs like bacteria and fungi from growing in them dated since early 1930s. Though, Thimerosal contains mercury but the type of mercury doesn’t stays in the body, and is unlikely to make human fall sick.
Most people doesn't have any allergic reaction to it except for redness and swelling at the injection site as early mentioned and this is considered irrelevant when compared to effect of vaccine when contaminated by germ which could cause serious illness or death.

Select the neurological problems that affect women more often than men.
Answer: Imma say the Parkinson's disease.
This disabling neurological disease affects about 50% more men than women.More than two times more men than women are affected by antisocial personality disorder and substance use disorder. Several cancers, including stomach cancer (2:1), oesophageal cancer (3:1), liver cancer (2:1 to 4:1) and oral cancer (2:1 to 3:1), which have mostly lifestyle-based risk factors, are more common in men.

red-green color blindness is an x-linked recessive disorder. if the mother is RGCB and the father has normal vision, what are the changes for daughters and sons to hae the trait
Answer:
The correct answer would be -
RGCB daughter - 0%
RGCB sons - 100%
Explanation:
Red-green color blindness is a sex-linked recessive disease that means it will only express in absence of the normal allele that is present on X-chromosomes. As it is known that males have only one X-chromosomes therefore, the chances are more in males to be affected in presence of the recessive gene. In this given case women s RGCB and man has normal vision. The genotype of women would be both recessive alleles XcXc and genotype of man would be XY.
The gametes would be - Xc, Xc and X, Y
then the cross:
Xc Xc
X XXc XXc
Y XcY XcY
so the offspring would be -
Carrier female = XXc (50% chance in total and 100% in daughters)
RGCB daughters = 0%
RGCB male = XcY (100% in sons and 50% of total children)

how is spark formed, and why might a spark start an explosion?
Answer:When the applied electric field exceeds the dielectric breakdown strength of the intervening medium, a spark is generated. In a mechanism known as dielectric breakdown, the exponentially increasing electrons and ions allow regions of the air in the gap to become electrically conductive.
An electrostatic spark causes the blast. The sudden rise in temperature that occurs as the mixture ignites causes a massive increase in gas pressure. The ensuing increase in pressure could collapse the chamber with a noisy explosion if the burning vapour were to be trapped.

Che healthy way to lose weight is to...
Drink a lot of water
O Take in slightly less calories than you use daily
O Eat no fats
O Eat no carbohydrates
1 point
Answer:
O Take in slightly less calories than you use daily
Explanation:
It has been shown that the healthiest diets to lose weight are those where individuals consume fewer calories than normal and simultaneously by taking care of consuming all essential nutrients in adequate quantities.
The essential nutrients to be consumed in a healthy diet include:
1- macronutrients, especially proteins (amino acids) to avoid muscle loss as well as normal metabolic functions, and fats, which are required to absorb some micronutrients (i.e., liposoluble vitamins)
2- micronutrients, which include vitamins (e.g., vitamin D, vitamin C, etc) and minerals (e.g., iron, calcium, etc).
Sleep is an important need for people, explain sleep and four
different stages of sleep.
Answer:
Stage 1 non-REM sleep is the changeover from wakefulness to sleep. ...
Stage 2 non-REM sleep is a period of light sleep before you enter deeper sleep. ...
Stage 3 non-REM sleep is the period of deep sleep that you need to feel refreshed in the morning. ...
REM sleep first occurs about 90 minutes after falling asleep.
Explanation:
Sleep is an important part of your daily routine—you spend about one-third of your time doing it. Quality sleep – and getting enough of it at the right times -- is as essential to survival as food and water. Without sleep you can’t form or maintain the pathways in your brain that let you learn and create new memories, and it’s harder to concentrate and respond quickly.
Stages of sleepstage 1 non-REM sleep is the changeover from wakefulness to sleep. During this short period (lasting several minutes) of relatively light sleep, your heartbeat, breathing, and eye movements slow, and your muscles relax with occasional twitches. Your brain waves begin to slow from their daytime wakefulness patterns.
Stage 2 non-REM sleep is a period of light sleep before you enter deeper sleep. Your heartbeat and breathing slow, and muscles relax even further. Your body temperature drops and eye movements stop. Brain wave activity slows but is marked by brief bursts of electrical activity. You spend more of your repeated sleep cycles in stage 2 sleep than in other sleep stages.
Stage 3 non-REM sleep is the period of deep sleep that you need to feel refreshed in the morning. It occurs in longer periods during the first half of the night. Your heartbeat and breathing slow to their lowest levels during sleep. Your muscles are relaxed and it may be difficult to awaken you. Brain waves become even slower.
REM sleep first occurs about 90 minutes after falling asleep. Your eyes move rapidly from side to side behind closed eyelids. Mixed frequency brain wave activity becomes closer to that seen in wakefulness. Your breathing becomes faster and irregular, and your heart rate and blood pressure increase to near waking levels. Most of your dreaming occurs during REM sleep, although some can also occur in non-REM sleep. Your arm and leg muscles become temporarily paralyzed, which prevents you from acting out your dreams. As you age, you sleep less of your time in REM sleep. Memory consolidation most likely requires both non-REM and REM sleep.
