Answer:

6/16 dogs will not be able to smell.

Explanation:

Genes A and B are considered for scent smell.

Individuals homozygous for either one or both of the nonfunctional recessive alleles are not able to smell.

The final cross would be AaBb x AaBb which has outcome of;

Individual with homozygous nonfunctional recessive alleles (bold ones):

  • One nonfunctional recessive alleles: Aabb, aaBB, aaBb, Aabb, aaBb (5/16)
  • Two nonfunctional recessive alleles: aabb (1/16)
  • All nonfunctional recessive alleles: 6/16 dogs that could not smell scents

How will you describe the sequence of oxygen carbon dioxide and blood flow in you our words?
lakkis [162]
The flow of oxygen is simply summarized as entering the body through the lungs and being absorbed into the blood. From there, the oxygenated blood is carried to the heart and then pumped all over the body. From there, the oxygen is absorbed by cells that need it for respiration. 
Carbon dioxide is generated via respiration of glucose in muscle and body cells. It then passes into the blood and is carried out to the lungs, where it diffuses out and is breathed out.
Blood follows a double circulation pattern, where deoxygenated is pumped to the lungs from the heart then goes back to the heart to be pumped into the rest of the body.

Two students are given cubic boxes, measuring 10 cm on a side. Robert puts a single glass marble with a
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Both boxes have the same amount of empty space

Explanation:

Given

Cube Box

Length = 10cm

Robert:

1 glass marble

Diameter = 10cm

Susan:

1000 glass marble

Diameter = 1cm

Required

Whose box has more empty space?

First, we need to calculate the volume of the cubic box.

Volume = Length^3

Substitute 10cm for Length

Volume = 10^3

Volume = 1000cm^3

Next, calculate the volume of Robert's glass

Volume is calculated as:

Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 ---- Volume of a sphere

Where

r = radius

r = \frac{1}{2} * Diameter

Diameter = 10cm --- Given

Substitute 10 for diameter

r = \frac{1}{2} * 10cm

r = 5cm

So:

Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

Volume = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{22}{7} * 5^3

Volume = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{22}{7} * 125

Volume = 523.8cm^3

Next, we determine the volume of Susan's 1000 glasses

Volume is calculated as:

Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 ---- Volume of a sphere

Where

r = radius

r = \frac{1}{2} * Diameter

Diameter = 1cm --- Given

Substitute 1cm for diameter

r = \frac{1}{2} * 1cm

r = 0.5cm

Substitute 0.5cm for radius in Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

Volume = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{22}{7} * 0.5^3

Volume = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{22}{7} * 0.125

Volume = 0.5238

But there are 1000 glasses.

So, the volume of 1000 glasses is:

Volume = 0.5238 * 1000

Volume = 523.8cm^3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For Robert:

Volume = 523.8cm^3

For Susan:

Volume = 523.8cm^3

Since, they have the same volume.

Both boxes have the same amount of empty space
