Answer:

The amount of lipids stored as an energy reserve far exceeds the energy stored as glycogen since the human body is simply not capable of storing as much glycogen compared to lipids. Lipids yield 9 kcal of energy per gram while carbohydrates and proteins yield only 4 kcal of energy per gram.

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Consider the below table of F2 data of phenotypic flies: we can reconstruct the table as seen in the second attached image below:

From the above observations it is clear the Gray body long wings and Ebony body vestigial wings are the parental combinations and that the Gray body vestigial wings and Ebony body long wings are the recombinants.

Also the ratio indicates that Gray body is dominant over ebony body and that long wings is dominant over vestigial wings.

here the genes for the two characters have shown independent assortment which means that the genes are unlinked if located on the same chromosome or are located on different chromosomes.

Now F1 hybrid= GgLl (G for Grey and L for Long)

Cross between F1 hybrid and true breeding Gray vestigial (GGll)

GgLl x GG ll

Gametes-----------> GL Gl gL gl Gl

GL Gl gL gl

Gl GGLl GGll GgLl Ggll

(Gray long) (Gray vestigial) (gray Long) (Gray vestigial)

Therefore the probability of getting the flies with gray body vestigial wings= 2/4= 50%

b) The reason why the students obtained the above given F2 results involving a cross between true breeding Gray body and long wings with true breeding Ebony body and vestigial wings is that the genes for the two charcters asssort independently in F2 generation and that the genes are not linked as:

Parents------------------> GGLL x ggll

Gametes -----------------> GL gl

F1---------------------> GgLl (Gray long but in heterozous condition)

Now GgLl x GgLl

Gametes GL Gl gL gl GL Gl gL gl

Here gametes assorted independently and hence in F2 generation we got the above results (U can show the results in the form of punnett square.

What contents of the lysosome aids in their digestive function?

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

<span>Digestive enzymes are prolific inside the lysosomes. The organelle is named as such because these enzymes engage in "lysing" activity, meaning that the break up the worn-out cell parts or other wastes that the structure engulfs.</span>

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Carbonization is the term for the conversion of an organic substance into carbon or a carbon-containing residue through pyrolysis or destructive distillation. It is often used in organic chemistry with reference to the generation of coal gas and coal tar from raw coal.

The nurse places the stethoscope on the 3rd intercostal space at the left sternal border. Which area is the nurse auscultating f

miv72 [106K]

The nurses auscultated for heart sounds in the area of Erb point.

The fifth point of auscultation for the heart test, known as "Erb's point," which is occasionally given to the eminent German neurologist Wilhelm Heinrich Erb (1840–1921) without any supporting documentation, is positioned in the third intercostal gap near the sternum. At the third intercostal gap and the left lower sternal border is the auscultation location for heart sounds and heart murmurs known as Erb's point.

The spinal accessory nerve in the posterior nerve triangle is located at Erb's point (also known as the great auricular nerve) at the location where it enters the trapezius muscle. At the end of expiration, the third intercostal gap on the left (Erb's point) is often the ideal place to detect the murmur of aortic regurgitation because it is quiet, high-pitched, early diastolic and decrescendo.

Incomplete dominance shows phenotypes of both dominat and reccessive trait !!

so supppose red is AA
the white is aa
and pink is Aa (heterozygous thus pink)

on crossing Aa to Aa (two pink)

we have ; AA , Aa, Aa, aa

thus 1 red, 2 pink, 1 white
Ratio - 1:2:1
