3. Climate change has been a topic repeatedly mentioned in our study of Marine Science.
Ber [7]

Answer:

Climate change lead to the destruction of corals due a warming of the oceans, increase in ocean acidity as gases such as carbon dioxide are absorbed into the oceans, rise in sea level due to melting glaciers and increase in precipitation, changes in storm patterns, etc.

Symbiosis is a close relationship between two dissimilar organisms which usually results in benefits to one or both organisms.

<em>Note: The study material was not provided.</em>

Explanation:

Greenhouse gas emissions from human activities have led to an increase in global surface temperature. This has resulted in a warming of the oceans, increase in ocean acidity as gases such as carbon dioxide are absorbed into the oceans, rise in sea level due to melting glaciers and increase in precipitation, changes in storm patterns, etc.

The warming of the oceans poses a great threat to life and activities in the ocean. Coral reefs especially are affected by a warming of the ocean in the following ways:

  • mass coral bleaching- with increase in ocean temperature, corals remove the algae living in association with them that are responsible for their colour, thereby turning corals white. With prolonged bleaching periods, the corals eventually eventually die .
  • Sea level rise: with rise in sea level comes a likelihood of increase in flow of sediments into the sea. This sediments when deposited on corals found near land suffocates and kill the corals.
  • Changes in storm patterns: stronger and more frequent storms can lead to a destruction of coral reefs.
  • Increase in the acidity of oceans results in death of corals.

Corals and algae exist in a symbiotic (mutualistic) relationship in coral reefs. The coral provides the algae with a protected environment and compounds they need for photosynthesis. In return, the algae produce oxygen and help the coral to remove wastes.

Therefore, symbiosis is a close relationship between two dissimilar organisms which usually results in benefits to one or both organisms.

Human blood type is an example of what where both the A and B blood types can be expressed semiagenously
Charra [1.4K]

Codominance is an inheritance pattern. Human blood type is an example of CODOMINANCE where both the A and B blood types can be expressed.

<h3>What is codominance?</h3>

Codominance refers to the inheritance pattern in which a phenotype expresses two alternative variants coded by two alleles inherited from each homozygous parent.

When two individuals, that are homozygous and different for a trait, are crossed they produce heterozygous individuals.

These progenies express both parental phenotypes, as it is an additive expression of their parents' genes. Both alleles are equally expressed.

The is not complete dominance in these cases.

In the case of blood, the I gene determines the blood type of a person.

→ I is <u>completely dominant </u>over the i recessive allele.

→ Allele I can be either IA and IB, which are <u>codominant</u>.

  • The person IAi expresses the A blood type ⇒ complete dominance
  • The person IBi expresses the B blood type ⇒ complete dominance
  • The person IAIB expresses the AB blood type  ⇒  codominance ⇒ both alleles are simultaneously expressed

Human blood type is an example of CODOMINANCE where both the A and B blood types can be expressed.

The nurse is auscultating for abdominal bruits. which vessel would the nurse auscultate last?
klemol [59]

The nurse is auscultating for abdominal bruits, on carotid artery the nurse auscultate last.

The bruits are a swishing sounds due to turbulence in the blood vessel in the abdomen and it heard due to atherosclerotic changes in the abdomen, whereas the carotid artery may be auscultating for bruits.

The auscultate abdominal bruits are present initially, at the right lower quadrant, it move in the sequence up to right upper quadrant, then to left upper quadrant and then finally to the lower quadrant. The auscultating for bruits are present over the aorta, renal arteries, femoral arteries and iliac arteries.
