<h2>The correct answer is explained below:</h2>

Explanation:

  • According to the question, free ear lobes are dominant over attached ear lobes.
  • Let the allele for free ear lobes be represented by F.
  • Let the allele for attached ear lobes be represented by f.
  • The genotype of the homozygous recessive woman (mother) having attached ear lobes is : ff.
  • The gamete produced by the woman is: f.
  • The genotype of the heterozygous man (father) with free earlobes is: Ff.
  • The gametes produced by the man are: F and f.
  • Mating the man with the woman we get the following offspring,

                                        F                                            f

                           f           Ff                                          ff

          Phenotype      Free ear lobe                   Attached ear lobe

  • The genotype and the phenotype of the probable children obtained is represented in the Punnett square above.
  • The probability that the parents would produce children with attached ear lobes is = \frac{1}{2} .

How do oxygen and glucose molecules release energy in the cells? please make it simple
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Your body cells use the oxygen you breathe to get energy from the food you eat. This process is called cellular respiration. During cellular respiration the cell uses oxygen to break down sugar. When the cell uses oxygen to break down sugar, oxygen is used, carbon dioxide is produced, and energy is released. In cells use oxygen to release energy stored in sugars such as glucose. In fact, most of the energy used by the cells in your body is provided by cellular respiration.

Explanation:

i tried my best to break it down into a simple explanation. hope this isn't too complicated, and i hope it helps!! have a nice day.

Is the importance of an element in the body related to its percentage of body weight? Cite the evidence in the table to support
Otrada [13]

Answer:

Roughly 96 percent of the mass of the human body is made up of just four elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen, with a lot of that in the form of water. ... Sulfur is not usually mentioned as a dietary supplement because the body gets plenty of it in proteins. Humans get nitrogen from food. The element is an important component of amino acids, which are used to build peptides and proteins. Nitrogen is also an essential component of the nucleic acids DNA and RNA and all of the other molecules derived from the nitrogenous bases.

They have volcanoes and valleys and are very hot compared to outer planets.Inner planets are much smaller than the outer planets, and are rocky with an iron core.

Hope that helps!
