While a home was undergoing a renovation, workers discovered that there was asbestos in the walls. Before any further work could

be attempted, the family that owned the house had to evacuate, and specialists were brought in to remove the asbestos. Why would the house contain a substance that forced the family to be evacuated?
Asbestos is not harmful, and the family was evacuated due to routine construction protocol.
Asbestos was once thought to be very useful, but now it is linked to lung cancer so the family was evacuated.
Asbestos is not harmful, but the family was evacuated so that the asbestos could be recycled for another building.
Asbestos was thought to be useful and is no longer used due to increasing costs to manufacture it.

B.
Asbestos was used in housing for many years because it was cheap to manufacture and was amazingly heat-resistant, but was found to be incredibly dangerous, causing innumerous accounts of lung cancer and related problems.

This is from memory, but I will double check after I answer.

Punnett squares provide an easy way to predict the possible genotypes for an offspring, but it is not practical to perform a Pun
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

There are certain limitations associated with the Punnett Squares. They are not useful in case of complex genetic inheritance such as linkage between two genes. In case of linkages it becomes difficult to estimate the distribution of genotypes and phenotypes. For example in case of  Nail-patella Syndrome and gene associated with blood group two genes lie on the same chromosome in close vicinity and hence there are high chances of inheritance of these traits in the offspring from the parent thereby causing  random distribution of the two traits. This random distribution cannot be captured through punnet square.  

The same problem is associated in case where a single gene is determined by multiple genes with graded effects of each gene.

. While Carl Linnaeus catalogued nearly all known organisms of his day, which major group of organisms did he not account for in
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Single-cell organisms

Explanation:

In 1735, Linnaeus introduced a classification system with only two kingdoms: animals and plants. Linnaeus published this system for naming, ranking, and classifying organisms in the book "Systema Naturae". In the epoch that Linnaeus created this system, single-cell organisms such as bacteria and protists were almost unknown. In 1866, E. Haeckel added a category including both bacteria and protozoa, thereby adding a category formed by single-cell organisms (different from animals and plants). During the 1900-1920 period, bacteria were classified as a separated kingdom named 'prokaryotes'. The current three-domain classification system was introduced by C. Woese in 1990. In this system, all forms of life are divided into three different domains: archaea, bacteria, and eukaryote domains (this last composed of protists, fungi, plants and animals).
