State two precautions people should take when a hurricane warning is issued?

1 answer:

7 0

There are several precautions that should be taken during catastrophic weather. In the case of a hurricane warning two precautions you should take immediately are:
1. Fortifying your house: In doing this you give your home the utmost care and protection needed to give it the best chance to minimize damage.
2. Evacuate: This is more or less common sense. whenever there is a massive storm most evacuations are mandatory. Regardless whenever a storm is likely to hit your area it is best to pack up pets and all essentials and head for the safest area as quickly as possible. waiting till the last minute could get you stuck in traffic causing you to be caught in your car during the store which is more dangerous than remaining in your own house.

Use the following graph of two theoretical populations (species A and B) to answer the following questions:

avanturin [10]

A) This is predator-prey relationship.

B) Species A is prey and species B is predator.
- If prey population decreases in number, the predator population will also decrease because there is not enough food for predators to survive and vice versa.

- If predator population decreases, the prey population will increase because less prey will be eaten by predators and vice versa.

C) Let population A be Zebras, and population B Lions.

From the graph, at the beginning the there is increase in Lions, as well as in smaller rate in Zebras. At one point, the population of Lions begins to decrease, so they will eat less Zebras. This will allow Zebras to increase population. With more Zebras on the menu, more Lions will eat and increase their chance to survive. This leads to decrease in Zebra population. But again, with less Zebras, the Lion population must decrease allowing Zebra population to increase, and so on.

The control for a complementation test, which is often omitted, is the:

Degger [83]

Answer:

b. cis test

Explanation:

A test that is used to determine if the mutation associated with a given phenotype is due to mutations in two different genes or due to different alleles of the same gene is called a complementation test.

A complementation test is also called as a cis-trans test.

If the mutations in a complementation test are located on the same position then the genes are termed as being on the cis position otherwise on the trans-position.

A cis test, that is if the genes are located on the same position serves as a control for the complementation test.

Michelle was curious about her mother's blood type. Michelle knew that her own blood type was o,

babymother [125]

Blood type is determined by the I gene. IAIA and IAi determines A blood type. IBIB and IBi determines B blood type. ii determines 0 blood type. Michelle's mother must at least carry one recessive allele i.

--------------------------------

The blood type is determined by a gene, which is triallelic.

IA dominant over i. The person presents A type of antigens.

IB dominant over i. The person presents B type of antigens.

IA and IB are codominant. The person presents both types of antigens, A and B.

i is the recessive allele. The person does not present any antigen.

⇒ H0m0zyg0us dominant individuals IAIA, or heter0zyg0us Individuals IAi, will express the A blood type.

⇒ H0m0zyg0us dominant individuals IBIB, or heter0zyg0us Individuals IBi, will express the B blood type.

⇒ Individuals with h0m0zyg0us recessive genotype, ii will express the 0 blood type.

⇒ Individuals carrying IA and IB alleles will express the AB blood type.

To solve the problem, we will use this information.

We know that

Michelle is blood type 0

Father is blood type A

Brother and sister are blood type A

Mother??

⇒ If Michelle is blood type 0, then her genotype is ii. She must have received one recessive allele from her father and one from her mother.

⇒ This suggests that Michelle's father, who is blood type A, is heter0zyg0us IAi. He must have at least one dominant allele IA that determines his phenotype, and one i allele.

⇒ Michelle's brother and sisters are also type A. They might be either h0m0zyg0us dominant IAIA or heter0zyg0us IAi.

⇒ Michelle's mother should have at least one recessive allele i. She could be either IAi or IBi, or ii. There are three possible option for her genotype.

Let us make the Punnet squares to understand it better. We know the genotype of the father, but there are three options for the mother.

Option 1

Cross) father x mother

Parentals) IAi x IAi

Gametes) IA i IA i

Punnett square) IA i

IA IAIA IAi

i IAi ii

F1) 25% of the progeny is expected to be h0m0zyg0us dominant IAIA

50% of the progeny is expected to be heter0zygus IAi

25% of the progeny is expected to be h0m0zyg0us recessive ii

75% of the progeny is expected to be blood type A ⇒ IAIA and IAi ⇒ Sisters and brother

25% of the progeny is expected to be blood tye 0 ⇒ ii ⇒ Michelle

Option 2

Cross) father x mother

Parentals) IAi x IBi

Gametes) IA i IB i

Punnett square) IA i

IB IBIA IBi

i IAi ii

F1) 25% of the progeny is expected to be IAIB

25% of the progeny is expected to be heter0zygus IAi

25% of the progeny is expected to be heter0zygus IBi

25% of the progeny is expected to be h0m0zyg0us recessive ii

25% of the progeny is expected to be blood type AB ⇒ IAIB

25% of the progeny is expected to be blood type A ⇒ IAi ⇒ Sisters and brother

25% of the progeny is expected to be blood type B ⇒ IBi

25% of the progeny is expected to be blood tye 0 ⇒ ii ⇒ Michelle

Option 3

Cross) father x mother

Parentals) IAi x ii

Gametes) IA i i i

Punnett square) IA i

i IAi ii

F1) 50% of the progeny is expected to be heter0zygus IAi

25% of the progeny is expected to be h0m0zyg0us recessive ii

50% of the progeny is expected to be blood type A ⇒ IAi ⇒ Sisters and brother

50% of the progeny is expected to be blood tye 0 ⇒ ii ⇒ Michelle

Despite the fact we can not determine for sure the mother's genotype, we know that she carries at least one recessive allele, which is why Michelle's blood type is 0.
