Describe the characteristics of the water at the mountain source: speed temperature oxygen level and nutrient level

Biology
1 answer:
konstantin123 [22]3 years ago
4 0
Water at the mountain sources come from springs.

The speed of flow of these waters vary, with the fastest being Magnitude 1 springs that discharge water more than 100 feet cube per second. 

Water at these sources have the average temperatures of about 56 degrees Farenheit. 

The oxygen level in drinking water is around 0.001%, the same as normal drinking water.

Spring waters have exceptionally high amounts of minerals, which is why they are often bottled and sold at a more expensive rate. They may also include irons and tannins.

In a hardy-weinberg population with two alleles, a and a, that are in equilibrium, the frequency of allele a is 0.2. what is the
Allushta [10]
The Hardy-Weinberg equation is as follows:
( {p + q})^{2}  = 1
{p}^{2}  +2pq +   {q}^{2}  = 1
Where:
(convert all % to decimals)

p= homozygous dominant
q= homozygous recessive
pq= heterozygous

While you did not specify whether the 0.2 frequency was for dominant or recessive, we can still figure out the answer.

Using the 1st equation, we can solve for the other dominant/recessive frequency:

1-0.2=0.8

Meaning that:

p= 0.8 & q=0.2

If the heterozygouz frequency is 2pq, then it becomes a simple "plug & chug" sort of approach.

2(0.8)(0.2)= 2(0.16)= 0.32

So, the heterozygous frequency would be:
0.32

vredina [299]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

In 10th grade , Natalie fits the societal ideal of a slender body type . She is most likely a(n) :

A) late-maturer.

B) average-maturer.

C) prepubescent.          

D) early-maturer.

Answer:

D) early-maturer.

Explanation:

If Natalie is in 10th grade, it means she is around 15-16 years old. This is an age when the body is being modeled after the molds of an adult body. However, children's characteristics should still be present at this age.

This is not what is happening to Natalie, since at this age she has a body that fits society's standards for a slim body. These standards of beauty in society are aimed at adult bodies, Natalie is not an adult, which shows that she is a person with early maturity.

I’m not sure what it means for the cell membrane to be semi-permeable
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

It means that the cell membrane allows certain substances to pass through and not others. As the cell membrane consists of a phospholipid bilayer with a hydrophobic core, only small uncharged hydrophobic molecules can pass through the cell membrane e.g. glucocorticoid and other larger charged particles require transporters or channel proteins to pass through the cell membrane, e.g. glucose.
