Which statement about atmospheric pressure near Earth's surface is true?

Biology
1 answer:
Ira Lisetskai [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

B.  It decreases as you move away from Earth's surface.

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure is maximum at the surface of the Earth and it decreases with the increase in the elevation. In the mountains regains and on the cliff of the mountains, the atmospheric pressure is less as compared to the ground level. This happens because the density of the cool air is greater than the warm air. The decrease in pressure causes mountain sickness and many other problems to people when the elevation increases.

Are brown eyes healthier than blue eyes?
beks73 [17]

Answer/Explanation:

Blue eyes have less melanin than brown eyes. Melanin helps vision and hearing. It also affects behaviors and balance.

This means Brown eyes are healthier than blue eyes.

Studies have shown even for cats that if they have white fur and blue eyes(lack of melanin) that they would have a 90% chance of being born deaf.

If an individual is homozygous for a trait, what percentage of his/her gametes will carry that allele?
Kazeer [188]
100% will have that allele. Homozygous means the alleles are the same for every gamete, for example looking at Mendel's pea plants, if the allele for the trait of growing tall is T and the allele for growing short is t, a homozygous tall pea plant would have the genotype TT, meaning all of its alleles are tall
