Steve loves to hang gliding, using a glider, kites, all sorts of non-powered aircraft, really. However, Steve is also not the best at doing things responsibly, or even well. Everything he tries seems to end in disaster. But still, he tries and never lets things get him down. One day, Steve decides to fly a kite (a favorite passion of his). He looks at the weather forecast for his area, and he sees several places he could go.

Townberg: 77°, pressure: 922 millibars

Statelyton: 55° pressure: 1013 millibars

Cityville: 62° pressure: 978 millibars

Assuming that the towns are all a: within 40 miles of each other, and b: in a straight line (Townberg→ Statelyton→ Cityville), which town should he go to in order to have the best time flying his kite? Why?

Recently, crops of vegetables such as lettuce and green onions have been contaminated, while they are still on the farm, with bacteria that cause food poisoning. how will science influence the way the government responds to prevent an increase in food-borne diseases? because science has shown that lettuce and green onions are not nutritionally valuable, the government may pass laws that ban the sale of lettuce and green onions. because science has shown that there is no way to prevent bacterial contamination, the government may pass laws that punish businesses that buy lettuce and green onions. because science has shown that the washing of hands prevent the spread of infectious diseases among people, the government may pass laws that require hand washing by everyone who handles food. because science has shown there are ways to find the source of the contamination, the government may pass laws that require farm practices that reduce the contamination of lettuce and green onions.

The lake of the ozarks is a human-made lake, so it collects runoff from coal strip-mining, fertilizers, resort wastewaters, and septic drainages. the average lake temperature is between 10∘c and 21∘c. consider the physical requirements for growth and multiplication that would allow fecal coliforms to “blossom” in the lake of the ozarks. which of the following would accurately describe these organisms? check all that apply. psychrophiles facultative halophiles extremophiles mesophiles hyperthermophiles
