Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The mineral that is most abundant in the human body is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Minerals are the essential micronutrients required by the body for the maintenance for biological activities. Each of them carries their some specific functions in the body. Minerals are also classified in two types one is major minerals and other is minor minerals.
(b)
Interpretation:
The mineral responsible for the proper functioning of the thyroid glands is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Minerals are the essential micronutrients required by the body for the maintenance of biological activities. Each of them carries their specific functions in the body. Minerals are the inorganic substances present in the body which carry out some specific functions very important to the body.
(c)
Interpretation:

Concept introduction:
Minerals are the essential micronutrients required by the body for the maintenance of biological activities. Each of them carries their specific functions in the body. Minerals are the inorganic substances present in the body which carry out some specific functions very important to the body.
(d)
Interpretation:
The difference between a vitamin and mineral is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Vitamins and minerals are both the micronutrients those are very essential for good human health. Both are needed in the body for proper health maintenance as both of them carry a very important role in the biological activities of the body. Deficiency of these can cause many kinds of disease in the human body.

Below is just the information I used to get the graphs obtain the graph please help. Prepare two graphs, the first with the percent transmission on the vertical axis and concentration on the horizontal axis and the second with absorption on the vertical axis and concentration on the horizontal axis. Solution # Unknown Concentration (mol/L) Transmittance Absorption 9.88x101 635 0.17 1.98x101 47% 0.33 2.95x101 31% 0.51 3.95x10 21% 0.68 4.94x10 14% 24% 0.85 0.62 A.) Give an equation that relates either the % transmission or the absorption to the concentration. Explain how you arrived at your equation. B.) What is the relationship between the percent transmission and the absorption? C.)
