What is probability, and how is it used with Punnett squares to predict the outcomes of genetic crosses?
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Probability is the chance that a given event will occur. The principle of probability allows us to predict the possible combinations of phenotypes in a genetic cross by using a diagram called Punnett squares. This diagram represents alleles and gives us the genetic variations formed during a cross. For example, a flower has one dominant allele for a blue color, which is represented by capital T, and one recessive allele for a pink color, which is represented by small t. When this flower is crossed with another flowering plant with the same type of alleles, which is Tt, the combinations produced for their offspring includes TT, Tt, tT, and tt.

What is the main difference between bacteria and humans that gives Sulfa drugs their antibacterial properties? Group of answer c
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Human cells can readily absorb folic acid; bacteria cells cannot.

Explanation:

Bacterial cells cannot absorb folic acid and synthesize it. On the other hand, humans do not synthesize folic acid in their cells. They rather obtain it from the diet. Sulfa drugs, for example, sulfanilamide resemble p-aminobenzoate (PABA). PABA is a molecule that is used as a substrate in the synthesis of the coenzyme folic acid. The sulfa drugs serve as competitive inhibitors and compete with PABA for the catalytic site of an enzyme involved in the folic acid synthesis. This prevents the synthesis of folic acid in bacterial cells and thereby, inhibits bacterial growth.

Alborosie

Answer:

B. "Whispered pectoriloquy" - "speaking from the chest"; used as a means of finding masses in the lung. The whispered word is audible in areas where fluid or a mass is present

Explanation:

Auscultation in medicine, is the action of listening to sounds from the heart, lungs, or other organs, usually using a stethoscope, in order to perform medical diagnosis.

Auscultation is performed for the purposes of examining the circulatory and respiratory systems, as well as the alimentary canal. The procedure is best performed in a quiet examination room. A stethoscope is used to magnify internal sounds. Small changes in breath sounds are carefully observed in order to make a diagnosis.

Whispered pectoriloquy is used to detect vocal resonance. It is  used as a means of finding masses (consolidations e.g. pus) in the lung and is performed by having the patient quietly whisper a word. If fluid or a mass is present, words that are whispered may be heard clearly.
