Answer:

The elevations at the given points are as follows -

A= 70 ft ; B= 10 ft ; C= 20 ft

D=20 ft ; E= 30 ft ; F= 50 ft

Explanation:

Contour lines are the lines of equal elevation. They never intersect with each other. They represent the height of any particular location from the mean sea level. These contour lines are often used in the maps in order to describe the topography and the relief of an area. They are helpful in studying a map conveniently.

From the map, we can determine that the point B has the lowest elevation and point A has the highest elevation. This depicts that point B is a low lying area and point A is the highest hill area in that region.

Thus, the height (elevation) of the locations are mentioned above.

In what two ways are active transport proteins similar to enzymes

Ksju [112]

They change conformation/shape when the right molecule bind in their active site.
They enable reactions to proceed ‘downhill’. For enzyme, when the reactants are more than the products, the reaction proceeds to the right of the reaction. Career proteins also carry molecules down their concentration gradient.
Both career proteins and enzymes are not denatured during the process of their biological activity

A species of salamander has two tail length phenotypes. Short tails are completely dominant over long tails. A scientists crosse

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

D. If all of the offspring are short-tailed, the unknown individual is the homozygous dominant genotype.

Explanation:

The short tail phenotype is completely dominant over the long tail phenotype. When a short tailed salamander with unknown genotype is crossed with a homozygous recessive long tailed salamander, the cross is called testcross. Lets assume that the allele "S" gives "short tail" phenotype while the allele "s" gives "long tail" phenotype.

If the "short tailed salamander" with unknown genotype is homozygous dominant (SS), the process of the testcross will express only dominant trait (cross 1). On the other hand, if the "short tailed salamander" with unknown genotype is heterozygous dominant (Ss), segregation of alleles during gamete formation would form two types of gametes (cross 2). The 50% progeny would express the "long tail" phenotype while rest 50% will express the "short tail" phenotype.
