The pH of blood if pco2 drops to 35.0 mmHg is 7.459

The pH of the blood can be calculated using the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation, which explains the relationship between acid dissociation constant pKa and pH in biological and chemical systems.

pH = pK + log ( HCO3- / ( 0.03 * PCO2 ) )

pK is 6.1 for the bicarbonate buffer system.

HCO3- = 24mm

PCO2  = 35.0 mmhg

pH = 6.1 + log ( 24 / 0.03 * 35.0 )

    = 6.1 + log ( 24 / 1.05 )

    = 6.1 + log 22.8571

    = 6.1 + 1.3590

    = 7.459

Hence, the pH of blood is 7.459

4: Units of inheritance known as genes exist in pairs.
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

4. a

5. a

6. a

7. a

8. a

9. a

10. True

Explanation:

4. Units of inheritance in living organisms are known as genes. These genes exist in pairs in all organisms and a copy of each gene is passed down to the offspring during reproduction.

Correct option: a

5. Assuming the dominance of allele A over allele a:

                AA    x    aa

          Aa    Aa    Aa    Aa

All the offspring will appear tall since the effects of allele a is masked by allele A.

Correct option: a

6. From the cross in (5) above, the genotypic ratio of the offspring is 100% Aa.

Correct option: a

7. Alternate forms of genes in living organisms are known as alleles. A copy of the alleles is usually passed down to the offspring during the process of reproduction.

Correct option: a

8. Phenotypes are the physical appearance of organisms. They are physical interpretation of genes.

Correct option: a

9. The law of segregation was postulated by Gregor Mendel. It states that gene pairs segregate during the process of meiosis and then randomly unite during the process of fertilization.

Correct option: a

10 Heterozygous organisms have two different alleles for the same genes. For genes that obey Mendelian laws, heterozygous condition is characterized by one dominant and one recessive alleles.

xenn [34]

The correct answer is: D) A and B only

Pneumonia is an inflammatory condition of the lungs that is usually caused by infection with viruses or bacteria. Pneumonia causes the fluid fill of the alveoli (air sacs). As a result symptoms such as cough with phlegm or pus, fever, chills, and difficulty breathing might occur. Pneumonia can be serious condition, especially for infants and people with weakened immune systems.

Which one of the following molecules can MOST easily pass through the plasma membrane unassisted?
Anton [14]

The molecule that can MOST easily pass through the plasma membrane without assistance is carbon dioxide (CO2). Diffusion is a type of passive transport that occurs when molecules move in favor of a concentration gradient.

During diffusion, molecules move high concentration to a region of low concentration.

Oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) are non-polar gasses that move across cell membranes by a process called simple diffusion.

Simple diffusion is a type of passive transport that does not require energy to move substances across cell membranes.
