4 0

Answer:

They are identical

Explanation:

The gene profiles show that the profiles are identical. This can be done in several ways. One way is to compare the DNA in the profiles. This is done by running the electrophoresis. The process of electrophoresis is premised on the fact that the DNA is of the acidic nature and has a mass. The mass of the DNA is determined by the amino acids in the molecule. In addition, the DNA has a charge. The DNA is put into the conductive paste and the test done. The separation of the DNA is compared to the profile of patient. If the bands separate at equal distances, then the profile for patient 4 will be that for Mike.

Answer:

13-15 grams...

Explanation:

If only 50% of weight genes are transferred as seen in 0.5 probability then the ideal weight will be 14 grams (9 grams from first and 5 grams from the 2nd and so... ). But due to the genetic anomalies the range should be taken as 13-15 grams with a confidence interval of 95%...

Do you think the challenge society faces with regard to feeding the world's growing population is an example of ecological carry
Minchanka [31]

Answer: Yes

Explanation:

Carrying capacity can be defined as the total number of members of the population of a species that an ecosystem can sustain in terms of providing resources in the form of food, shelter and others. When the resources are available in surplus then the population of a species increases exponentially but declines when resources become scarce. The human population is increasing tremendously all over the world this is supported by the resources like food, water, fossil fuels, air, minerals, and others. But some of these resources are decreasing due to overuse and may not be available in future to sustain the future generation.

Chapter 4 Review
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A rainforest is humid, therefore, water uptake would likely not be an issue. However, rainforests have a huge number of trees, often these are very tall. These large trees might block out the sun from the smaller plants nearer the ground. This means they would struggle to properly photosynthesise, as they wouldn't have the necessary light energy.

Therefore, as a survival adaptation, it is likely that an allele that produced broader leaves for photosynthesis would be selected for in this population. Broader leaves would give a larger surface area for the plant to absorb light energy to perform photosynthesis.
