Llana [10]2 years ago

<span>The law of segregation is a principle of Mendelian genetics. The law of segregation occurs during meiosis when gametes are formed. At this time, the alleles for each gene segregate from one another. As a result, each gamete contains only one allele per gene. Thus, the gametes are haploid. The gametes need to be haploid so the specie’s diploid number is maintained when the egg and sperm unite. As a result of the law of segregation, each diploid parent passes a random allele for each trait to his/her offspring during fertilization. Thus, segregation increases variation within a species.</span>

Sugar dissolving is breaking down molecules. Salt and pepper mixed in a dish is a physical change (also that's just plain evil to some people but that isn't the point). Your answer will be D. Iron rusts.

There are both short term and long term complications of diabetes. Describe an example below for each category.
mariarad [96]
A long term complication of diabetes is damage to smaller and larger blood vessels. As a result of this, it can cause damage to the heart, brain, eyes and legs- this is often why people have to have part of their leg amputated due to diabetes. A short term complication of diabetes is Hypoglycaemia, Ketoacidosis, and these are a result of the blood glucose becoming too low. This is usually when someone has to inject themselves with insulin, or have something sweet that is able to increase their blood sugar levels. Hope this helps :)
