Studies show that the use of fat replacers will reduce the risk of obesity. false

1 answer:

7 0

I think the above statement is false. I believe people use sugar substitutes and fat replacers for the purpose of helping control their weight, to limit the symptoms and risk of conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases adn cancer and to prevent tooth decay, the subject of whether the two helps in the indicated is debatable. However, current research does not show that they help people reduce calorie intake or prevent obesity.

To check whether Earnest and Denise could have a baby with Type O blood, draw a Punnett square for a father who has blood Type A

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Answer is explained below and also see the document attached below for Punnett square.

Explanation:

ABO blood type (A, B, AB, or O) is based on the presence (or absence) of the A and B antigens in the red blood cells. The blood type, A has only the A antigen (and has anti-B antibodies) while the blood type, B has only the B antigen (and had anti-A antibodies). Also in the AB blood type, both A and B antigens are present (but has no antibodies) while in the O blood type, both A and B antigens are absent (but has both antibodies).

The blood type is inherited from the parents and the offspring inherits one of the two alleles from each parent. The ABO blood type has three types of alleles: IA, IB, and i. Here, I is a term for antigen (isoagglutinogen).

The IA and IB alleles are dominant while the i allele is recessive. The blood type A is formed by either two IA alleles (IA IA ) or IA i. So, the genotype of blood type A is IA IA or IA i. The blood type B is formed by either two IB alleles (IB IB ) or IB i. So, the genotype of blood type B is IB IB or IB i. The O blood type is formed only by two i alleles (ii). So, the genotype of blood type O is ii. The IA and IB alleles (IA IB) give the AB blood type, which is an example of codominance (the traits of both the alleles are visible in the phenotype). The genotype of blood type AB is IA IB.

If the parents have blood type A and B, then they can have an AB blood type offspring. If the parents have blood type A and B and they both are heterozygous (IB i and IA i), then they can also have a O blood type child.

Here, the father has blood Type A (IA i genotype) while the mother has blood Type B (IB i genotype). Both the parents are heterozygous (IB i and IAi), so the possible genotypes of their child are IA IB (blood type AB), IA i (blood type A), IB i (blood type B) and ii (blood type O).

i.e., Blood Type Genotype

A IA IA or IA i

B IB IB or IB i

AB IA IB

O ii

In what ways do cells use energy

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Image result for In what ways do cells use energy

Cells do not use the energy from oxidation reactions as soon as it is released. Instead, they convert it into small, energy-rich molecules such as ATP and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), which can be used throughout the cell to power metabolism and construct new cellular components.

Nature vs Nurture debate.

Explanation:

Development in human is inborn.The stages of development is dictated and directed by expression of genes encoded by the DNA.Therefore physiological and biochemical interpretations of these DNA dictates is known as human development. it is a fixed mechanisms which is fastest at childhood,and progressively slower at advanced stage.Although environmental factors may influence this developmental stages, the exact mechanism of occurrence is constant and fixed.

Nuture concept believe that, human development is as a result of societal and cultural factors in the environment, and the progression of the development is due to the influences of theses factors on human perception of life. Thus Human development is acquired through life exposure and experiences.They are therefore dynamic, and not static, but fluctuates based on level of exposure in the environment.

However, both concept interacts with one another to ensure an holistic human development. Generally it is the interaction of the environment with genetic that explains the concept of natural selection and evolution of human race.

How can mutations affect evolutionary processes? A) Mutations are novel genes that increase an organism’s fitness in the environ

Fed [463]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Option A is incorrect as mutations may be detrimental to the organism and are not always beneficial. Option B is incorrect as there are instances where mutations may enable organisms to be better adapted to the environment. Option D is incorrect as genotypes are not selected for or selected against by environmental pressures, it is only the phenotype (exhibitable/ visible traits) that can be selected for or against, hence option C is the answer.
