Use the information below to answer the following question(s). In a survey, the rate of heavy smokers was reported as 270 per 10

00 individuals.
If two individuals are randomly selected, find the probability that neither of them is a heavy smoker.

Assume that having a child with brown eyes or blue eyes is equally likely and that eye color is independent of the other children. What is the probability of having 5 children with brown eyes?

The probability that neither of them is a heavy smoker is 0.53 or 53%

<h3>What is genetic probability?</h3>

Probability serves to mathematically estimate the possibility of events that happen by chance, that is, as a matter of luck.

In this case:

Probability that selected one is heavy smoker is:

p=270/1000=0.27

Number of individuals selected  is 2 and We know that:

P(X=x)=nc_x(1-p)^{n-x}(p)^x

We need to prove that X=0:

P(X=0)=nc_0(1-0.27)^{2-0}(0.27)^0

P=0.5329

Identify whether each circumstance provided will promote an increase or decrease in blood pressure
pashok25 [27]
Circumstance <span>that cause an increase in Blood Pressure:
</span>
- increasing levels of aldosterone ((influences the reabsorption of sodium and excretion of potassium in the kidneys. This will indirectly influence the blood pressure since the volume of blood will change)

<span>- vasoconstriction ( blood vessels increase their contraction, which equals to more pressure)
</span>
-increased release of renin (Converts angiotensinogen, secreted in the liver, into angiotensin I).
- increased activity of Angiotensin-converting enzyme ( this enzyme converts angiotensin I into angiotensin II increasing vasoconstriction).

Circumstances that cause<span> a Decrease in Blood Pressure:
</span>
<span>- decreased sodium reabsorption ( by decreasing sodium, the amount of water will also decrease or , in other words,will be excreted. Less water, will decrease volume of blood and that means less blood pressure)
</span>
- vasodilation (The smooth muscle in the <span>blood vessels decrease their contraction, which equals to less pressure)
</span>
- declining levels of ADH(ADH <span>is produced in the hypothalamus and stimulates vasoconstriction plus it promotes water reabsorption in the kidneys. To reduce blood pressure, is important to have ADH levels reduced)</span>

What are the similarities between <br><br>1. the linneous and modern classification system?
devlian [24]
All modern classification systems have their roots in the Linnaean classification system. The Linnaean system is based on similarities in obvious physical traits. It consists of a hierarchy of taxa, from the kingdom to the species. Each species is given a unique two-word Latin name.

In what two ways do plants keep our climate stable over time?​
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Through transpiration and use of carbon dioxide (green house gas)

Explanation:

Plants help in making the climate stable in following two ways –  

a) Temperature offsetting – Plants take in carbon dioxide from atmosphere and thereby reduces atmospheric carbon. Due to reduction in greenhouse gases, the temperature reduces.  

b) Moisture regulation – Plants transpire through their leaves. Through transpiration, they release water as vapor and cool down the air. The higher the vegetation , the more is the transpiration.
