Answer : 4. "Methane"
Explanation :
Methane is the gas that can cause explosions in coal mines. Methane is a highly flammable gas, and when it accumulates in high concentrations in confined spaces like coal mines, it poses a significant risk. Methane explosions can occur if the gas comes into contact with an ignition source, such as a spark or flame, leading to a dangerous explosion. That's why proper ventilation and safety measures are crucial in coal mines to prevent methane buildup and potential explosions.

Answer : 4. "from monkey"
Explanation :
The term "Rh factor" is derived from the Rhesus monkey, in which the protein was first discovered. The Rh factor is a protein that can be present on the surface of red blood cells, and it is named after the Rhesus monkey because the protein was initially identified in Rhesus monkey blood during scientific experiments. The Rh factor is an important component in blood typing and can be either Rh-positive (presence of the protein) or Rh-negative (absence of the protein) in humans.
