It is c bc it says the amount of ATP needed. so, since the amount needed is not there, it will make as much as it can in its absence.

When the swimmer is unable to take in enough oxygen for the sprint, the ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) will be compromised. In such conditions, the body will use anaerobic respiration to produce the ATP. Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen. It used the electron acceptors in place of the oxygen in the respiratory cycle. The amount of the ATP produced is, however, less in anaerobic respiration.

Hence, the answer is 'Option C - Anaerobic respiration would be used to produce small amounts of ATP in the absence of oxygen'.

Answer:

Brown is the dominant gene and white is the recessive gene.

Explanation:

If brown were to be dominant then the mice would most likely all be brown unless the got both a white from mom and dad which is most likely due to brown being recessive the dad could be part white you just wouldn't see it. And since the mother is white all of the mice get a white gene from the mom and since the dad most likely has a white gene hidden inside of him only tow mice became fully white while the siblings were brown.

Hope this helps.

omeli [17]
The answer is (3) an increase in the proportion of offspring <span>that have favorable characteristics.

</span>In natural selection, genotype variations that will increase the chance of survival and reproduction of some organism are preserved and will be inherited. Peppered moth color variation is a good example of natural selection.<span>During the Industrial revolution, due to pollution, trees become darker in the urban area. Light-colored moths were, thus, easy prey. The dark-colored moths were able to camouflage on dark trees and avoid predators. The phenomenon is known as industrial melanism. So, in polluted urban areas, the number of dark-colored peppered moths increased. In the clean environment, were much effective in hiding from predators and they outnumbered the dark-colored moths.
Therefore, the </span>proportion of offspring <span>that have favorable characteristics in such environment will increase.</span>
