The answer is D. 3.33 A

In parallel connected devices, circuits are also placed parallel. It is known that in parallel circuits, total voltage is equal to the voltage of each device. 

So, we know that:
Device 1 - R1 = 12 ohms
Device 2 - R2 = 4 ohms
Total voltage - V = 40V = V1 = V2

If V = I × R, for the first device is V1 = I1/R1.
⇒ I1 = V1 ÷ R1
⇒ I1 = 40 V ÷ 12 ohms
⇒ I1 = 3,33 A

kvasek [131]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

White blood cells cannot function properly and their reduced production can lead to fever and frequent infections. This is because the function of white blood cells in fighting germs has been disrupted.

Other signs and symptoms:

- Weak and tired.

- Lack of appetite and weight loss.

- Swelling and bleeding gums.

- Headache.

- Abdominal swelling is caused by enlargement of the liver and lymph.

- Bone pain, can cause weakness.

Joint pain.

- The glands are swollen. If the glands in the neck and chest are swollen, it can cause blood flow to be blocked. This causes the face to swell, difficulty breathing and snoring.

What is the effect of differential reproduction over time?How is the sickle-cell allele maintained through natural selection?
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Differential reproduction leads to a change in allele frequencies over time. This occurs because of natural selection favoring "successful" individuals that produce more viable offspring.

The sickle-cell allele is maintained in populations exposed to malaria through balancing selection, since heterozygous individuals have protection against the disease.
