Suggest why anaerobic respiration can only be<br>sustained for short periods of time.​
aleksklad [387]
Anaerobic respiration can be sustained for short periods of time because you aren’t using oxygen. We need oxygen in our body to work our muscles and pump our heart.

Allen and andrew both have the same biological parents. Why do they not resemble either of there parents
taurus [48]
This can be because of their genetics. The siblings may not have inherited their parents looks, but maybe they inherited their grandparents looks, or even their aunts looks. This is all due to genetics. It's sort of the same thing, when two caucasian parents have an african-american child. That would be because somewhere along the family tree someone was african-american. 
Anyways, I hope this helps!

Juan has been diagnosed with mono, and the doctor wants to determine if his spleen is enlarged. Where (quadrant, etc.) will the
hichkok12 [17]

Answer and Explanation:

  • Where (quadrant, etc.) will the doctor palpate Juan's abdomen?

<em>Under normal conditions in general the spleen can not be palped because of its reduced size. But when it is enlarged it might be easily touched. The spleen is located under the thoracic cage (rib cage) on the left side, between the 8th and 11th ribs. This would correspond to the left superior quadrant (left hemi-belly).</em>

  • What other organs might be compressed by Juan's enlarged spleen?

<em>The enlargement of the spleen and the liver inflammation are symptoms of the mono disease. This enlargement might affect some neighboring organs such as the stomach, which might be displaced and compressed. </em>

  • why is Juan's spleen enlarged and not his stomach or kidney?

<em>The spleen is part of the immunological system and helps the body to fight infections and filter old bloody cells taking them out of the blood current. This organ might get enlarged because blood cells accumulate in its interior. Red blood cells are excessively stored in the spleen, resulting in anemia. The more cells the spleen retains, the larger it becomes, and hence, the more blood cells it retains and destroys. If the spleen is unproperly working, it kills too many red blood cells and accumulates many others.</em>

The Stomach and kidney are not part of the immunity system and they do not filter blood cells, so they do not seem to be affected by their accumulation.

How does crossing over increase diversity?
Sphinxa [80]

Crossing over does helps in genetic diversity as it provides with new genes combinations. In crossing over, chromatids exchange genetic information during the meiosis. This mixing of genetic information provides the offspring with its own unique genetic makeup with some similarities with the parent’s genetic system. Crossing over is very beneficial in terms of giving the offspring more variability that helps in becoming more resistant to a disease and be a better version than parents.
