Due to its system of air sacs connected to the lungs, the respiratory system of birds is arguably the most effective respiratory

system of all air-breathers. upon inhalation, air first flows into posterior air sacs, then into the lungs, and then into anterior air sacs on the way to being exhaled. thus, there is one-way flow of air through the lungs, along thousands of tubules called parabronchi. which type of bird is most likely to benefit from air sacs, which reduce its weight? birds, such as geese, which migrate great distances birds that chip away wood, such as woodpeckers diving birds birds that rip apart prey, such as hawks and eagles

I think the birds that are most likely to benefit from air sacs, which reduce their weigh are the birds such as geese, which migrate great distances birds. These birds usually generate a lot of heat, especially during flight. Yet the adipose tissue under their skin and the feathers atop their skin make it difficult to eliminate excess heat across the skin.

The frequency of a lethal allele in a population is greatest when it is: Group of answer choices dominant manifested in infancy
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

recessive

Explanation:

A lethal allele is a gene variant associated with a mutation in an essential gene, which has the potential to cause the death of an individual. In general, lethal genes are recessive because these alleles do not cause death in heterozygous individuals, which have one copy of the normal allele and one copy of the allele for the lethal disease/disorder. In recessive lethal diseases, heterozygous individuals are carriers of the recessive lethal allele and can eventually pass the 'defective' allele on to offspring even though they are unaffected; whereas dominant lethal diseases are caused by dominant lethal alleles, which only need to be present in one copy to be fatal. In consequence, the frequency of recessive lethal alleles is generally higher than dominant lethal alleles because they can be masked in carrier individuals. Some examples of human diseases caused by recessive lethal alleles include, among others, Tay-Sachs disease, sickle-cell anemia, and cystic fibrosis.
