Remnant of a structure that may have had an important function in a species' ancestors, but has no clear function in the modern species.
Below are the questions:
A) A hovering mosquito is hit by a raindrop that is 45 times as massive and falling at 8.9m/s , a typical raindrop speed. How fast is the raindrop, with the attached mosquito, falling immediately afterward if the collision is perfectly inelastic?
<span>B) Because a raindrop is "soft" and deformable, the collision duration is a relatively long 8.0 ms. What is the mosquito's average acceleration, in g's, during the collision? The peak acceleration is roughly twice the value you found, but the mosquito's rigid exoskeleton allows it to survive accelerations of this magnitude. In contrast, humans cannot survive an acceleration of more than about 10 g.

Below are the answers:
a. <span>MU = (M + m)V; where M = 45 m, U = 8.9 m/s, find V = ?. V = (45/46)*8.9 = 8.7 m/s
</span>
b. <span>F = m dV/dT = m 8.7/8E-3 = m 1.0875E+03; so G = 1.0875E+03/9.8 = 111 G's.</span>
50% of the offspring will be Aa (red), 50% will be aa (white).
Answer:
Zero (0)
Explanation:
According to the given information the genotype of the woman with blood type "AB" would by I^AI^B. The genotype of the man with blood type O would be "ii". Here, the alleles I^A and I^B are dominant over the allele "i".
A cross between parents with genotype I^AI^B and ii would give 50% of children with I^Ai genotype and 50% of children with I^Bi genotype. The children with "I^Ai genotype" would have blood type "A" and the children with I^Bi genotype would have blood type "B". This couple is never likely to have any child with blood type "O" since the mother does not carry allele "i".
Cross: I^AI^B x ii = 1/2 I^Ai : 1/2 I^Bi
