Question

C. Match the columns: A 1.Potassium hydroxide 2.Serum compound 3. Streptomycin 4. Anthrax 5. Carbolic acid B i. Antiseptic ii. Bacterial disease iii. Absorbs carbon dioxide iv. Antibiotic v. Blood clotting factor IX​

Answer 1

Answer:

• Potassium hydroxide ------>Absorbs carbon dioxide

explanation:The CO2 gas absorbs readily at room temperatures into potassium hydroxide solution. Potassium hydroxide gives 40% efficiency of removing CO2

• Serum compound---------->Blood clotting factor

Explanation:Serum is the liquid that remains after the clotting of blood.It is the part of the blood which lacks clotting factor.

• Streptomycin----->Antibiotic

explanation: Streptomycin is a prescription medicine used to treat the symptoms of moderate-to-severe infections such as Tuberculosis. Streptomycin may be used alone or with other medications.

• Anthrax-----> Bacterial disease

Expplanation:Anthrax is a serious infectious disease caused by gram-positive, rod-shaped bacteria known as Bacillus anthracis. Anthrax can be found naturally in soil and commonly affects domestic and wild animals around the world

• Carbonic acid----->Antiseptic

Explanation:

Lister successfully introduced carbolic acid (now known as phenol) to sterilise surgical instruments and to clean wounds. Applying Louis Pasteur's advances in microbiology, Lister championed the use of carbolic acid as an antiseptic, so that it became the first widely used antiseptic in surgery.
