Explanation / Answer

1. Dimethyl sulfides are the major chemical responsible for the rotten flesh smell of the Titan Arum plant. At the later stages during the end of the life cycle of the plant, Trimethyl amine contributes to the foul rotten fish smell too.

2. Out of all the compounds given, Triethyl amine although has a fishy smell but does not contribute to the stench of decomposed garbage.
Amines usually have higher odour thresholds than all the other compounds given,
eg: putrescine smells of rotten meat, methanthiol smells of rotten cabbage, acetaldehyde has a pungent smell.

3.Esters are responsible for the fruity aroma of mangoes.

4. Urushiol is the common compound between the skin of mangoes and poison ivy.

5. Fentanyl has the highest potency amongst all the other drugs.

25. efiicacy of anti aging creams is shown by Vitamin A commonly know as retionoic acid.
