Which factor does the moment magnitude scale estimate?

Biology
1 answer:
malfutka [58]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

It <u>estimates the size or strength of an earthquake</u> but is typically used only for medium or large earthquakes . The moment is the slip on the fault multiplied by the area of the fault surface that slips. The moment is then used to estimate the size of the earthquake by finding the moment magnitude with an equation. <u>It is the only magnitude scale that estimates the energy released from an earthquake.</u>

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is Although the F1 generation will all show the dominant trait, the offspring  will all be heterozygous and increase chances of future variation.</em>

Explanation:

The cross for the offsrings that will be produced by F1 generation is shown below:

         a          a

A      Aa       Aa

A      Aa        Aa

As we can see that all the offsprings in the F1 generation will have heterozygous genes but only the dominant trait will be seen in the phenotype of the F1 generation.

A cross between the F1 generation will give the following results:

         A          a

A      AA      Aa

a       Aa      aa

This cross shows that there will be increases genetic and phenotype variations in offsprings that will be produced by the F1 plants.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

agouti - aaBbCc

solid color - AaBBCC

agouti black - AAbbCc

albino - AaBbcc/Aabbcc/AABBcc

Explanation: All the phenotypes that contain cc will be albinos, so they won't present any pigment deposition. Agouti black depends on the A gene to be homozygous and the B to be recessive, so the phenotype AAbbC_ is the correspondent. If A is not homozygous and B isn't recessive, we have agouti color. If B is homozygous and A recessive, we have a solid color.
