During any outbreak or whenever problems occur, there are
always three major steps to take.
1. First, is the containment action. In this step, actions
are taken to reduce or lessen the severity of the people affected. This aims in
isolating the disease. In this step, scientific knowledge is used in making
decision on what containment actions to take.
2. Second is the corrective action. This step focuses
solely on formulating medicine to treat the disease. Once again scientific
knowledge is used in creating those medicines.
3. Third is the preventive action. To prevent this disease
outbreak from recurring, certain actions are made to ensure this does not
happen again.
Answer:
0.153
Explanation:
We know the up-thrust on the fish, U = weight of water displaced = weight of fish + weight of air in air sacs.
So ρVg = ρ'V'g + ρ'V"g where ρ = density of water = 1 g/cm³, V = volume of water displaced, g = acceleration due to gravity, ρ'= density of fish = 1.18 g/cm³, V' = initial volume of fish, ρ"= density of air = 0.0012 g/cm³ and V" = volume of expanded air sac.
ρVg = ρ'V'g + ρ"V"g
ρV = ρ'V'g + ρ"V"
Its new body volume = volume of water displaced, V = V' + V"
ρ(V' + V") = ρ'V' + ρ"V"
ρV' + ρV" = ρ'V' + ρ"V"
ρV' - ρ"V' = ρ'V" - ρV"
(ρ - ρ")V' = (ρ' - ρ)V"
V'/V" = (ρ - ρ")/(ρ' - ρ)
= (1 g/cm³ - 0.0012 g/cm³)/(1.18 g/cm³ - 1 g/cm³)
= (0.9988 g/cm³ ÷ 0.18 g/cm³)
V'/V" = 5.55
Since V = V' + V"
V' = V - V"
(V - V")/V" = 5.55
V/V" - V"/V" = 5.55
V/V" - 1 = 5.55
V/V" = 5.55 + 1
V/V" = 6.55
V"/V = 1/6.55
V"/V = 0.153
So, the fish must inflate its air sacs to 0.153 of its expanded body volume
An important function of seed dormancy is delayed germination, which allows dispersal and prevents simultaneous germination of all seeds. ... Many species of plants have seeds that delay germination for many months or years, and some seeds can remain in the soil seed bank for more than 50 years before germination.
Answer:
Genetic drift (sampling error)
Explanation:
According to the given information, the population under study has a small size and is more likely to be affected by genetic drift. Genetic drift refers to any chance event that leads to random changes in the allele frequencies of a population over time.
It may occur by sampling error that either makes the allele frequency 100% in the population or completely removes it from the population. Sampling error occurs quickly in the small population. The initial frequency of "blood type A" was 3/85= 0.035. Over the time period of 45 years, sampling error during gamete formation and random fertilization removed all the individuals with "blood type A" from the population and reduced its frequency to 0.
