Polygenic inheritance, the etymology itself, describes the trait of inheritance that is determined by more than one gene. It contradicts the Mendelian inheritance patterns which suggest that traits are determined by one gene.

The human skin color is a good example of polygenic or multiple-gene inheritance. The melanin pigment is responsible for the dark coloration of the skin and it must be noted that there are at least three genes which control the human skin color.

Utilizing a hypothetical example where the production of melanin is controlled by a so called contributing alleles (denoted as A, B, C) would result in a dark skin color and non-contributing alleles produce light skin color, it is not impossible to see a spectrum of skin colors would result in an offspring.

It must be taken into consideration that alleles do not display dominance over the other alleles. But rather, the contributing alleles does not mask the effects. It gives an additive effect- this means that each contributing allele produces one color unit.

Using two parents, heterozygous (two alleles of different types each) for each melanin-producing genes, (AaBbCc X AaBbCc), it is possible to see how additive effects and alleles combination would result to a varying types of genotypes.

Therefore, it needs an interaction between several different genes and for this to occur, it needs three alleles from both of its parents.

The answer would be, <span>-polygenic in which offspring receive three alleles from each parent.</span>

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

(a) 0.345 T

(b) 0.389 T

Solution:

As per the question:

Hall emf, V_{Hall} = 20\ mV = 0.02\ V

Magnetic Field, B = 0.10 T

Hall emf, V'_{Hall} = 69\ mV = 0.069\ V

Now,

Drift velocity, v_{d} = \frac{V_{Hall}}{B}

v_{d} = \frac{0.02}{0.10} = 0.2\ m/s

Now, the expression for the electric field is given by:

E_{Hall} = Bv_{d}sin\theta                            (1)

And

E_{Hall} = V_{Hall}d

Thus eqn (1) becomes

V_{Hall}d = dBv_{d}sin\theta

where

d = distance

B = \frac{V_{Hall}}{v_{d}sin\theta}                      (2)

(a) When \theta = 90^{\circ}

B = \frac{0.069}{0.2\times sin90} = 0.345\ T

(b) When \theta = 60^{\circ}

B = \frac{0.069}{0.2\times sin60} = 0.398\ T

Consider the following distribution of objects: a 2.00-kg object with its center of gravity at (0, 0) m, a 2.20-kg object at (0,
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

body position 4 is (-1,133, -1.83)

Explanation:

The concept of center of gravity is of great importance since in this all external forces are considered applied, it is defined by

               x_cm = 1 /M   ∑ x_{i} m_{i}

               y_cm = 1 /M   ∑ y_{i} mi

Where M is the total mass of the body, mi is the mass of each element

give us the mass and position of this masses

body 1

m1 = 2.00 ka

x1 = 0 me

y1 = 0 me

body 2

m2 = 2.20 kg

x2 = 0m

y2 = 5 m

body 3

m3 = 3.4 kg

x3 = 2.00 m

y3 = 0

body 4

m4 = 6 kg

    x4=?

   y4=?

mass center position

x_cm = 0

y_cm = 0

let's apply to the equations of the initial part

X axis

    M = 2.00 + 2.20 + 3.40

    M = 7.6 kg

    0 = 1 / 7.6 (2 0 + 2.2 0 + 3.4 2 + 6 x4)

     x4 = -6.8 / 6

     x4 = -1,133 m

Axis y

    0 = 1 / 7.6 (2 0 + 2.20 5 +3.4 0 + 6 y4)

    y4 = -11/6

    y4 = -1.83 m

body position 4 is (-1,133, -1.83)
