Why it is necessary to critique a scientific argument before it is accepted.?
The purpose of the critique is to insure that the scientific argument has been properly researched and investigated and no possible alternate arguments have been ignored.
What is the significance being able to respond properly to a situation?
If a person properly responds to a situation he or she will receive a better response then,overreacting.
How can you properly take care of your microscope?

What is the result of not properly disposing of garbage?
If garbage is not properly disposed of, then not only can it cause a clutter, it can be a health hazard. Garbage harbors parasites, disease carrying rats, among other things.
In a properly designed experiment how many mainpulated responding and controlled variables should you have why?
In a properly designed experiment, it is important to have at least 2 controlled variables. With two variables you are able to remove one at a time and see the effect in your setup.
How do you sterilize a belly bar?
Unless you have access to an autoclave (which you quite possibly don't) your only option is to take it to your local body piercing studio and have them autoclave the jewellery piece for you (they will charge you for this service). Only an autoclave can properly sterilize jewellery to ensure that bacterial growth and spores are killed.
How can I sterilize needles used in tattooing?
You really should not be reusing needles to tattoo someone. If you are going to though, the only way to properly sterilize them is by using an autoclave. An autoclave uses extreme pressure and heat to kill germs and bacteria.
How do you sterilize piercing equipment?
There are several steps that must be done in order to properly sterilize piercing equipment. The most important of these steps in called Autoclave Sterilization. This involves the use of an autoclave, a device designed solely for the purpose of sterilizing surgical equipment. By the use of high pressure steam in an enclosed chamber for a specific amount of time, the steam under pressure gets into the fine fissures of the instruments and kills the bacterial, microbial life and spores existing on the instrument. Simply soaking equipment in a disinfecting solution will not sterilize the instrument to a level that could be considered safe. Only the high temperature and pressure of an autoclave can achieve that level. So for the misinformed folks who think holding it over a flame or soaking it in alcohol or chanting mystic phrases at it will sterilize the equipment, sorry your wrong.
Is McFord University credits accepted by other schools?
No, they are not accepted by properly accredited colleges or universities.
In which direction should you move the inoculating loop in the Bunsen burner flam?
When sterilizing a loop, grasp the handle firmly and begin flaming it starting at the end near the grip, flaming slowly down towards the loop, being sure that the wire is glowing orange. This ensures that the loop is being flamed properly and sterilizing.

If properly complested and submitted, acceptance is automatic
Is there a test to see if someone is Jewish?
A person is Jewish if their mother was born Jewish, or if they properly accepted and converted to Judaism.
How autoclave works in gas law?
An autoclave is a device-absolutely essential for all tattoo and piercing studios without exceptions-that sterilizes tools and jewelry through a process of heated and pressurized steam. Usually this means 274 degrees at 18 PSI, although different autoclaves will use different methods. While some people may substitute a pressure cooker for an autoclave, a pressure cooker is not properly gauged, and its moisture may damage the integrity of the autoclaving bags. This is not to say that proper sterilization does not occur, only that the cycle should be run longer than required and a spore test be taken and passed monthly to insure this. Bags allowed to dry, paper side up, will be no less structurally fine when dry than those sterilized in an autoclave. For all the trouble, it's better to just buy an autoclave-they only cost a few hundred dollars. There are several different "types" of autoclave; gravity displacement, positive pressure displacement, and negative pressure (vacuum) displacement: * The autoclave at your local tattoo or piercing studio (in the US) is most likely a gravity displacement autoclave, or type "N". This design of autoclave generally has a heating element fully or partially submerged in a pool of water in the bottom of the autoclave chamber, along with a fill hole that transfers water from a reservoir to the autoclave chamber. As the water in the pool is heated it begins to evaporate, forming steam. Steam is lighter then air, as the chamber fills with steam the majority of air in the chamber is pushed to the bottom of the chamber, and escapes via the fill hole which is connected to a temperature sensitive diaphragm that closes once it is sufficiently heated. Once the diaphragm closes pressure builds up inside the autoclave chamber. The benefit of this type of autoclave is it's simplicity, the drawback with gravity displacement autoclaves is they are only designed to function properly with solid unwrapped instruments, however there has been no indication that a gravity displacement autoclave, properly loaded with properly processed instruments is unsafe for use in the modification industry. * A positive pressure displacement autoclave improves on the design of a gravity displacement autoclave (see above) by creating the steam in a separate internal unit, sometimes called a "steam generator". Once the amount of steam needed to displace air in the chamber is produced a valve opens and a pressurized burst of steam enters the autoclave chamber, resulting in a higher percentage of air from the chamber being removed then with a gravity displacement autoclave, this decreases autoclave cycle times. Currently the most widely distributed and used if not the only positive pressure displacement autoclave is the Statim line of autoclaves. The drawbacks to positive pressure displacement autoclaves are the high initial cost, and the fact they generally have a smaller chamber. * Negative pressure, or vacuum displacement autoclaves, also known as type "S", have a separate internal "steam generator", as well as a vacuum pump. After the autoclave chamber is closed the vacuum pump removes all air form the chamber, and as above, steam is injected into the chamber. Negative pressure displacement autoclaves are able to attain some of the highest sterility assurance level or SAL. Negative displacement autoclaves generally have a forced filtered air drying system that allows the autoclave packages to be throughly dries before contacting any ambient air. The drawback back to negative pressure displacement autoclaves is the cost, and sometimes the size of these systems. * The last "type" of steam autoclave is type "B" for Big, and the name speaks for itself. These systems are more or less enlarged negative pressure displacement autoclaves (there are enormous gravity displacement autoclaves as well, but they are still type "N", and not usually used in the medical or modification industries). The steam generator for Type "B" autoclaves is usually a separate stand alone unit, and the autoclave chamber is sometimes large enough to physically enter. Due the large scale and astronomical price tag of these autoclaves they are rarely, if ever used in the modification industry.
Why is alcohol a socially accepted drug?
It is a scoially accepted because The "law" believes that alcohol is not dangerous unless used properly however alcohol causes more deaths then marjiuna which is ofcourse illegal.
What is complete immersion?
Completely immerse implements in a properly mixed disinfecting solution for 10 minutes or per the manufacturer's directions. How to disinfect nonelectrical tools and equipment in a salon.
Explain why you need to remove all dirt and other matter you can see on tools and implements before imersing them in disenfectant solution?
You need to remove all dirt and debris and other matter that you can see on tools and implements before immersing them in disinfectant solution because debris will hamper the solution getting on all parts of the tools. Immersion after a thorough cleaning will help the solution get on everything properly.
How do I properly go about sterilizing baby bottles?
All baby bottles should be sterilized before the baby uses them for the first time. All you have to do is bring a pot of water to a boil, and sumerge the bottles and nipples in the water for approximately 10 minutes. Cools and dry, and you are ready to go.
