1. specific heat: 1 kilogram kg of solid X at 10°C and 1 kg of solid Y at 10°C each
absorb 5 joules of heat energy. The final temperatures of X and Y are 15°C and
20°C, respectively. Compared to X, Y must have a lower

leaves of plants are most closely associated with which of these processes?
4. Difficulty in breathing: If the medulla of the brain in a human was damaged,
which of these conditions would most likely result?

use a steam sterilizer. If unavailable, the next most effective method to sterilize the
instrument would be
