List two major characteristics of elements

Biology
1 answer:
aivan3 [116]2 years ago
8 0

All elements have certain characteristics that are summarized on the periodic table. These characteristics include the element's symbol, atomic number, and atomic mass. You will learn how the number of protons in an atom relates to an element's atomic number, and explore how isotopes affect the atomic mass.

A mom, heterozygous for type B blood, has a baby with type AB blood, what possible blood types could the baby's father have?
EastWind [94]

Answer:

A

AB

Explanation:

This question involves blood type, which can either be blood type A, B, AB or O in humans. Alleles A (iA) and B (iB) are co-dominant but dominant over allele O (i).

According to this question, a mom who is heterozygous for type B blood i.e. genotype iBi, has a baby with type AB blood. Since the mother contributed the "B" allele, it means that the father contributed the A allele. Only a father with genotype: iAi or iAiA (type A) or iAiB (type AB) can produce such allele.

Describe the two main stages of photosynthesis in general terms
zhenek [66]
There are 2 stages in photosynthesis
light stage and dark stage
light stage takes placein the grana because there's presence of chlorophyll. 2 reactions take place here.
1. photolysis of water where water molecules are split into hydrogen ions and oxygen gas in presence of chlorophyll and oxygen gas. the oxygen gas is released into the atmosphere but hydrogen ions are used in dark stage.
2. formation of adenosine triphosphate which is formed by combination of adenosine diphosphate and an inorganic phosphate in presence of light. this adenosine triphosphate is also used in dark stage
dark stage is a light independent stage which takes place in the stroma. energy is provided by adenosine triphosphate formed in the light stage. this stage involves tge combination of carbon(iv)oxide and hydrogen ions to form a simple carbohydrate and a water molecule. this process is known as carbon(iv)oxide fixation which is the reduction of carbon(iv)oxideby hydrogen ions using adenosine triphosphate energy to form a simple carbohydrate.
This simple carbohydrate is changed to glucose for use in the plant or to starch for storage

How does human activity impact Earth's systems such as deforestation
KatRina [158]

Answer: Land, Water,Urbanization, and smog and acid rain.

Explanation:

Smog and acid rain are produced through similar sources, primarily vehicle and industry emissions. Though both result from human-caused air pollutants, there are chemical distinctions between the two. Though there are regulations in effect to reduce both types of pollution, they remain a threat to both human health and the environment.Smog Causes A combination of three components -- nitrogen oxides, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and sunlight -- causes smog. Nitrogen dioxide interacts with sunlight to create nitrogen oxide and a free oxygen molecule. This interaction produces ozone, which typically turns back into nitrogen dioxide, and the cycle repeats. The addition of VOCs interrupts the cycle, however. VOCs are produced by various sources, such as paint, cleaning products and refrigerants. The VOCs prevent the breakdown of ozone, allowing it to gather near the surface of the Earth, where even more nitric oxides are produced by vehicle and industry emissions, creating the dense smog seen in large cities such as Los Angeles and Beijing.Smog Hazards The presence of ozone in the form of smog can have several negative health effects. Respiratory systems can be irritated, reducing overall lung function and triggering asthma attacks. Evidence reported by the Environmental Protection Agency also suggests exposure to ozone reduces immune system responses, especially in the lungs. These effects subside over time, but little is known about the long-term effects of repeated exposure. Vegetation also suffers from smog, as plants that take up too much ozone can be damaged in ways such as discoloration and a loss of leaves that cuts photosynthesis efficiency by up to 50 percent.
