The factor that explains most of the difference in standards of living among countries around the world is PRODUCTIVITY.
One major measure that can be used to determine the standard of living of people in a particular country is the growth rate of the its Gross Domestic Product [GDP] per capita. The growth rate of GDP is a reflection of the labour productivity of that country. Labour productivity refers to the measurement of the amount of goods and services that are produced in a country by one hour of labour. An increase in productivity signifies an increase in the standard of living of the people in the country. Labour productivity differs from one country to another and this result in difference in the standard of living.

1. Why are new biomedical products created and what factors influence them to evolve over
Zanzabum

Answer:

Rapid progress in biomedical science has also encouraged the development of multiple successful medical technologies, but their translation into clinical use has posed complex scientific, cultural, and social problems. As demonstrated by the development of new acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) medications, the rise of these problems is spurring new interest in medical innovation.

Biomedical products are created for better results in medical technology including autoclave / sterilizer, anesthesia machine, aspiration/suction pump, and blood chemistry analyzer etcetra.

Factors influencing them includes harmful effect on other body parts ( beta blockers have harmful effect on heart), outdating technology, and introduction of evolved diseases that is not abl to cure with old products.

If a corn plant was heterozygous for kernel color and seed shape, what would be the genotype of the plant?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

<em>The genotype of the plant will be PpSs and the phenotype will be purple colour and smooth shaped. </em>

Explanation:

Considering the description in the question, we know that purple colour is dominant over the yellow colour and smooth shape is dominant over the wrinkled shape.

A homozygous trait can be described as a trait which arises due to the same alleles of a gene. A heterozygous trait arises when both the alleles of a gene are different. In such a case, one allele will be dominant over the other one and the phenotype of the dominant allele will be seen in the plant. As purple colour and smooth shape are dominant traits, hence they will be seen in the heterozygous plant.

Use the cladogram to explain why you think modern whales have very small but useless pelvic bones. 3.
aev [14]

Modern day whale species, have very small pelvic bones in comparison to their body size, and also they are useless. This is because this bones in the whale body are remnants from the time when their ancestors were land dwelling creatures, thus they had legs as the typical land mammal has. But during their evolution, as their ancestors were starting to adapt more to the water, the legs started to disappear, but the bones inside of the body remained, even though they were of not use. Even though millions of years had passed since this bone is useless, it still exists, and the reason for that is that there hasn't been any evolutionary pressure for it to not exist, since it is not causing any disadvantage into the movement and lifestyle of the whales.
