Air displacement plethysmography (ADP) measures the volume of a controlled chamber compared to body volume to determine body fat percentage.

<h3>What is Air displacement plethysmography (ADP)?</h3>

A two-component model called air displacement plethysmography (ADP) measures mass and volume, allowing for an assessment of body density (Db). This allows for the estimate of fat and fat-free mass using body density, which is calculated by dividing mass by volume (FFM).

With air-displacement plethysmography, an object's volume is indirectly determined by calculating how much air it displaces inside a sealed chamber (plethysmograph). Therefore, a patient is placed inside the chamber and their body volume is measured by how much air they can move while sitting within.

In humans, to fold the tongue is a dominant trait (L), and the straight tongue is the recessive trait. What are the probabilitie
kaheart [24]

The given question is incomplete as the genotype of the parents is not given, so the answer is providing in the followings case:

1. dominant parent and recessive parent

2. heterozygous parents

Answer:

1. dominant parent and recessive parent:

dominant parents can be represented by LL and recessive parent is represented by ll, so the gametes would be L, L and l, l.

so,

 L    L

l  Ll   Ll

l  Ll   Ll

so there are all offspring in heterozygous condition as we known one or two dominant allele masks the recessive allele for the trait so 100% offspring can fold their tongue.

2. heterozygous parents

In this case, parents have Ll genotype and gametes would be L and l for each parent so,

    L    l

L   LL  Ll

l    Ll    ll

In this case, one is pure dominant and two heterozygous whereas only one is recessive so, the phenotype of offspring that cant fol the tongue would be:

3/4 = 75%

Alizarin yellow is a pH indicator that transitions from red to yellow when the pH falls from a value of 11 to below 10. Why is p
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The correct answer is - acidic conditions wouldn't trigger a change in the color of Alizarin yellow.

Explanation:

The growth of E. coli generally occurs at neutral pH, however, its growth is normal at acidic conditions as well.  The change in the growth of  E. coli is not able to detect by alizarin.

The phenol red turns yellow in the presence of an acid, and the change in pH in an alkaline environment can be detected by the red color of phenol red. Growth of E.coli will grow in pH of 10-12 . But, very slowly. The color change in alizarin is also apparent at pH 10.2 to 12 only.
