Among pea plants, we see more peas with smooth pods than with constricted pods. if a plant with constricted pods is mated with a

plant with smooth pods, the offspring have smooth pods. when the offspring mature, and two of them are mated, they have a 25 percent chance of producing offspring with constricted pods. identify the offspring with homozygous alleles for the smooth pod trait.

Answer:

There is only one offspring with homozygous alleles (SS) for the smooth pod trait out of the total four offspring. The frequency of this offspring with homozygous alleles (SS) for the smooth pod trait is

\frac{1}{4} * 100\\25%

Explanation:

First Cross -

Let us assume that the genotype of parents in the first cross is

Smooth pod parent - SS

Constricted pod Parent - ss

Offspring produced after first cross are as shown in the punnet square below -

S S

s Ss Ss

s Ss Ss

All the offsprings are heterozygous (Ss) smooth

Second Cross -

The second cross is being carried between the two offsprings (Ss)

Offspring produced after second cross are as shown in the punnet square below -

S s

S SS Ss

s Ss ss

SS - homozygous smooth pod offsprings

Ss - heterozygous smooth pod offsprings

ss - homozygous constricted pod offsprings

There is only one offspring with homozygous alleles (SS) for the smooth pod trait out of the total four offspring. The frequency of this offspring with homozygous alleles (SS) for the smooth pod trait is

\frac{1}{4} * 100\\25%

OK if we said the the allel for smooth is (S ) and it is dominant and the allel for constricted is (s) and it is recessive , so we started by mating two pure pea plant one smooth and one constricted the offspring would have a genotype of (Ss) and it'S phenotype is smooth, and if that offspring did self pollination it will produce 4 offsprings with genotype as follow: 1 (SS) : 2 (Ss ) : 1 (ss) so there would be 3 smooth and one constricted which will be the last one (ss )

A roofer needs to get a stack of shingles onto a roof. Pulling the shingles up manually uses 1,549 n of force. The roofer decide
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

3.47

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage is given by the ratio of output force by input force.

F_o = Output force = 1549\ \text{N}

F_i = Input force = 446\ \text{N}

So,

MA=\dfrac{F_o}{F_i}\\\Rightarrow MA=\dfrac{1549}{446}\\\Rightarrow MA=3.47

The mechanical advantage of the pulley's is 3.47.

If hunting continues and drastically reduces the deer population, how might this impact the hawk population?
laiz [17]
Well, considering if the deer and the hawk have a direct predator prey relationship, where the deer are the prey, then the hawk population will also drop quite a lot, unless they have some other major food sources, but chances are they'll still drop.

If it's NOT a direct predator prey situation, for example: The deer happen to eat something that the hawks also eat, or the deer are prey for something the hawks eat:
If the deer eat something the hawks eat, by them dropping it means there will be more food supply for the hawks, meaning as the deer population drops, the hawk population will go up.

If the deer are PREY to something the hawk eats, then by there being less deer, then whatever the primary consumer of the deer is will also drop. If the hawk eats that predator, then there will be less of those predators, and less prey, meaning the hawk population will still drop

You were most likely given a food web to look at. Seeing how you didn't post that, I just gave you the only 3 situations that could happen.

~Hope this helps!

Fill in the following flowchart to show the pathway of a red blood cell as
Alla [95]

Answer:

1. The pathway of a red blood cell from the right ventricle to the brain is:

<em>Right ventricle → pulmonary arteries → lungs → pulmonary veins → left atrium → left ventricle → artery aorta → arterial vessels → brain .</em>

2. The substance that forms hemoglobin in red blood cells when it passes through the lungs is oxyhemoglobin.

Explanation:

Red blood cells are structures present in the blood, whose function is to transport oxygen (O₂) and carbon dioxide (CO₂). This process requires travel throughout the body, through the blood vessels, and gas exchange at the pulmonary and tissue level.

1. A red blood cell in the right ventricle contains carbon dioxide and must pass to the lungs to be oxygenated. The route it takes from there includes Right ventricle (minor circulation) → pulmonary arteries → lungs → pulmonary veins → left atrium → left ventricle → (joining the major circulation) artery aorta → arterial vessels → brain .

2. The red blood cell or erythrocyte contains a molecule, called hemoglobin, which has an iron core that allows it to bind to O₂ and CO₂ in order to transport them. The affinity for one molecule or another depends on the presence of a certain gas in a certain place.

When the red blood cell passes through the lungs, the concentration of O₂ is higher than CO₂, so the latter is released and O₂ binds to hemoglobin, a conjugation that is called oxyhemoglobin.
