What are limitations of the AFP test?
The AFP test can produce false positives/negatives, leading to unnecessary anxiety or missed detections. It is not a specific test and elevated levels can be caused by various conditions besides cancer. The AFP test is most useful when combined with other diagnostic tests for liver cancer.
If the icecaps melted what Empire State Building story would be sea level?
It should be first noted there is a technical definition of an icecap and the colloquial one; a true icecap is a mass of ice less than 50 thousand square kilometres, while the polar icecaps are much larger than this. However, one will assume the question refers to the total ice mass on the surface of Earth, as melting of the polar caps would necessitate melting of all others.
To begin with, there are currently 30 million cubic kilometres of ice mass on Earth; from using density values, this is equivalent to 27 million cubic kilometres of liquid water.
Earth currently has 361 million square kilometres of surface area in oceans, and 149 million square kilometres in 'land' area, for a total of 510 square kilometres. The source is not clear whether this is the equivalent flat area (i.e. if Earth were a perfect spheroid) or if this is the true area, including raised and uneven terrain.
So, if we only consider the ocean and consider the rise this would present, we are working out the depth 27 million km3 would make over 361 million km2.
From these numbers, simple division tells us the sea level would rise by 27/361 = 74.8 metres beyond its current value.
No information could be obtained regarding the elevation of the Empire State Building; however, assuming it stands at 50 metres above sea level and a 4 metre average storey height, we end up with the sixth floor being new sea level.
The twentieth level.

==== Not really. True that gravity affects all objects equally, but unless we're in a complete vacuum, we have to take into consideration wind resistance in the form of the ratio... surface area/mass. Which ever has the greatest surface area to mass ratio will fall slower than the one that has a lesser surface area to mass ratio. Take for instance, an ordinary plastic shopping bag. If you ball it up as tight as you can, you reduce the exposed surface area while keeping it's mass unchanged. If you drop it, it will fall to the ground quickly. If you open it up and flap it around and then drop it, it will float to the ground slowly. ====
Acid rain is bad because it causes serious health problems like birth defects and lung diseases. it can also cause cancer. acid rain also destroys monuments and kills fish. many forests are destroyed by acid rain. acid rain pollutes rivers and streams and erodes stonework.

How does Transcription take place?
who? the transcription enzyme RNA polymerase, the promoter DNA and the terminator DNA
where? in the cell nucleus
Initiation The promoter, located in the DNA at the beginning of the gene becomes the binding site for the RNA polymerase. Elongation the RNA polymerase copies and peels away the copied DNA, after copied, the DNA joins back with its matching DNA strand while the newly made RNA leave the polymerase Termination the RNA polymerase reaches a special sequence of bases in the DNA template that signals the end of the gene. The polymerase enzyme detaches from the RNA molecule and the gene who? the transcription enzyme RNA polymerase, the promoter DNA and the terminator DNA

An example of negative feedback would be a secretion of greater amount of insulin to lower the blood sugar level, and then secretion of greater amount of glucagon to increase the blood sugar level, and then a secretion of a greater amount of insulin to lower the blood sugar level..... etc.

If a condo building were to collapse what floor would be the safest to be on?
As a structural engineer, I would rather be on the second floor. Ask yourself this: Would I rather be under a bridge or on the bridge when it collapsed? The people in Michigan who rode the bridge down survived because the bridge did not fall as if dropped out of the sky. Part of the bridge "cushioned" the fall.
Is the Empire State Building above or below sea level?
At the Empire State Building's location at 34th Street and Fifth Avenue, street level is about 50 feet above sea level. All 102 floors from the first up are thus above sea level, as are the two basement levels. The foundation descends for 55 feet, so the very lowest part of the structure seems to be just below sea level.
Is shim plates are required below base plate in metal building if levelling bolts are also there?
Shim plates may not be required if leveling bolts are present, as the bolts can be adjusted to ensure the base plate is properly leveled. However, shim plates can be used in conjunction with leveling bolts to provide additional support and stability, especially in situations where precise leveling is crucial. Ultimately, the decision to use shim plates below the base plate will depend on the specific requirements of the metal building and the level of precision needed.
