How do chemists use moles?

A mole is a number of atoms. Because atoms are very small, rather than counting individual atoms, it is easier to count a mole of atoms. A mole of atoms is a very large number of atoms: 6.02 x 1023 atoms.

Moles are often used to talk about amounts of chemicals. Because different elements weigh different amounts, using the weight of a chemical isn't always the best way to measure the number of atoms or molecules in a sample. Moles are commonly used in this way to talk about the concentration of a solution (for instance, the number of moles of dissolved substance per liter of solution is called molarity).

Can any plants carry the virus that causes warts or what can you get them from?

No plant produces Human Papilloma Virus, the virus that causes warts. It is produced by and affects people only. HPV is usually transmitted by direct skin-to-skin contact.

However, you can also contract HPV via dead skin cells. So theoretically, you can contract HPV by touching a plant (or more likely a towel) that a person with warts has used. This contact with the object by the person with warts must be pretty recent, however; because once skin cells die and are deposited in the environment the process of bio-degradation begins to take place. So once the viral DNA (found in the skin cells deposited on, say for example, a towel or plant) is destroyed by light or bacteria, it most likely will no longer cause disease.
