If individual one who has the genotype BbHhEe is crossed with individual two who has the genotype bbhhEe, what is the probability that their offspring has brown eyes, straight hair, and attached earlobes?(I asked last time but I didn't get a serious answer, please make your answers as one percentage.)

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer would be - 1/16 or 6.25% is the probability that their offspring has brown eyes, straight hair, and attached earlobes

Explanation:

In this question, it is given that-

1. Brown eyes (B) are dominant to blue eyes (b)

2. Straight hair (H) is dominant to curly hair (h)

3. Free earlobes (E) are dominant to attached earlobes (e)

Now the cross between BbHhEe (Brown eyes-straight hair-free earlobe) with bbhhEe (blue eyes-curly hair-free earlobe) takes place.

Gametes will be -

BbHhEe - BHE, BhE, Bhe, BHe, bHE, bHe, bhE, bhe

bbhhEe - bhE, bhe

cross would be -

            BHE      BhE       Bhe        BHe        bHE        bHe        bhE       bhe

bhE   BbHhEE  BbhhEE BbhhEe BbHhEe bbHhEE  bbHhEe bbhhEE bbhhEe

bhe   BbHhEe  BbhhEe Bbhhee BbHhee bbHhEe  bbHhEe bbhhEe bbhhee

By the Punnett cross, we get only one out of 16 offspring with brown eyes, straight hair, and attached earlobes

Thus, the correct answer would be - 1/16 or 6.25% is the probability that their offspring has brown eyes, straight hair, and attached earlobes


Which of the following experiments would be considered unethical?
A. Testing irritating substances on an animal's skin but restricting it
to very small areas
B. Addressing possible risks to fish before testing a new pesticide
C. Taking blood samples from patients for research purposes
without consent
O D. Using the fewest animals necessary for an experiment

Answers

Answer:

C. Taking blood samples from patients for research purposes

without consent

Explanation:

Generally, providers may not render medical services without the patient’s consent, unless performance of emergency, lifesaving care is necessary. Taking samples from a patient is a type of medical service; thus, state consent laws apply. In addition, providers may not disclose PHI without patient authorization.

It depends on the definition of unethical being used, however I think I am right. I'm in AP bio currently. Let me know what the answer is :)

Which is larger, 40 centimeters or 670 millimeters?​

Answers

Answer:

670 Millimeters

Explanation:

1 Millimeter = 0.1 Centimeter

670 millimetres is equal to 67 cm which is greater than 40 cm. So 670 mm is greater than 40 cm.

What is a millimetre?

It is a unit of measurement for length/distance. It is a very small unit of measurement. It is a visible unit of measurement, unlike a micrometre which is smaller than a millimetre but measures things that are not visible to the unaided eye.

It is a part of the metric system commonly used in Science, Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). A millimetre is measured as one-thousandth of a metre.

The word metre is derived from a Greek word which means measure. The metric system that is used internationally for the measurement of various quantities is based on decimals.

Like a millimetre is one-thousandth of a metre, a micrometre is one-millionth of a metre. A centimetre is one-hundredth of a meter and a quantity smaller than a micrometre called a nanometer is one-billionth of a meter.

Therefore, 670 mm is 67 cm which is greater than 40 cm.

Answers

Answer:

D and C (glucose and oxygen gas)

Explanation:

I took the test

The product of photosynthesis are option (C)  glucose and (D) oxygen gas.

What is photosynthesis?

The energy from light is converted into the form of chemical energy through a process known as photosynthesis, which is utilized by living creatures like plants. Through a process known as cellular respiration, this chemical energy can eventually be converted into usable fuel that can be utilized to power the activities of the organism.

It is standard practice to write the equation that describes the process of photosynthesis as follows: 6CO2 + 6H2O gives C6H12O6 + 6O2.

This suggests that chlorophyll, which takes in light energy and converts it into chemical energy, is responsible for the transformation of the reactants, which are comprised of six molecules of carbon dioxide and six molecules of water, into the products, which are one molecule of sugar and six molecules of oxygen.

An athlete throws the javelin 212 m. The average speed of the javelin was 15 m/s. How long was the javelin in the air?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - 14.133 seconds.

Explanation:

The time that the javelin took in the air before landing after the 212 m throw can be calculated by simple distance and velocity formulas which say that the speed of an object is equal to the distance traveled by the object in unit time.

Given:

Speed or s = 15 m/s

Distance or d = 212 m

Then, the time or t =?

Solution:

By the formula, s = d/t

or t = d/s

t = 212/15

t = 14.1333

thus, the correct answer is - javelin was in the air for 14.1333 seconds.

The immune system has two modalities, specific and nonspecific responses. Which of the following is an example of a nonspecific response?

A. an antigen binding to an antibody

B. inflammation at the site of an infection

C. a cytotoxic T cell attacking a pathogenic agent

D. lymphocytes activating plasma cells in the blood

Answers

The following answer in the equation is D

B. Inflammation at the site of an infection is an example of a nonspecific response of the immune system.

What is non-specific immune response?

Non-specific immune responses, also known as innate immunity, are the first line of defense against invading pathogens and are activated immediately upon exposure to a foreign invader. These responses are not specific to a particular pathogen and do not require previous exposure or recognition. Instead, they provide a general response that helps to prevent the spread of the pathogen and contains it until the specific adaptive immune response can be activated.

Examples of non-specific immune responses include physical barriers such as skin and mucous membranes, as well as physiological responses such as inflammation, fever, and the activity of phagocytic cells like macrophages, which engulf and destroy pathogens. Non-specific immune responses also include natural killer cells, which are able to recognize and kill infected cells, and the complement system, a group of proteins that help to enhance the ability of other components of the immune system to destroy pathogens.

Some scientists are modifying the genetic code of certain fish by inserting genes that cause the fish to produce more growth hormone, which causes the fish to grow more quickly. Salmon is one type of fish on which scientists are working. Which answer choice shows the most significant negative impact to society that could result from producing genetically modified salmon?

Salmon cells could become less responsive to the hormone over time, slowing the growth rate of the fish.

Salmon could be reintroduced into the ecosystem where they could breed with, and alter, populations of wild salmon.

The genetically modified salmon will be very expensive to raise, so the fish will be too expensive for people to buy.

The modified, farmed fish would be more difficult for predators to hunt than wild salmon if reintroduced into the ecosystem.

Answers

Answer:

breeding with and altering the population of wild salmon

What is the significance of a balanced diet for maintaining a healthy level of biomolecules in our cells and body to function disease-free?

Answers

Answer:

A balanced diet makes our body work in the best possible way. Both the lack of food and the excess of them is detrimental to health, therefore the appropriate amounts must be consumed for each individual. It meets our basic physiological needs and reduces the risk of disease.

Explanation:

Food is the set of processes that allows organisms to use and transform nutrients to stay alive. A balanced diet will largely depend on the human being leading a healthy life. The foods that are consumed each day must have adequate amounts of both the macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, lipids), as well as the micronutrients (minerals and vitamins) and water, which are bioavailable that the consumed diet must contain, in order to satisfy the requirements physiological of each individual. In addition to covering individual variability, for some nutrients an additional amount is added to establish a margin of safety. Complying with the appropriate amounts avoids and prevents overweight, obesity, as well as chronic degenerative diseases such as diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemias, cardiovascular diseases, cerebrovascular disease, etc. and in turn helps the person to look and feel better, increasing physical and mental performance. Poor nutrition means neglecting some nutrients or overdoing others. This is the main factor that promotes progressive weight gain and obesity according to experts.
