Geiger-Muller tube is instruments requires you test three times the background of the work area.

<u>Explanation</u>:

These detectors are gas filled detectors and hence requires time for responding to the value. This time is taken because during this period it collects the electric charges and features of the electric circuit. It also gets stabilized during this period. This device has thumb rule i.e one must wait or hold for at the least 3 times the time constant before getting the precise and accurate reading. The time constant order is 10 seconds for the ionization chamber but for the Geiger counter it can vary from seconds to greater than 20 seconds

BIOLOGY HELP!!!!!

1. The correct answer is pH.

The activity of the enzymes might be affected by environmental changes such as change in pH. Each enzyme has the point when it is the most active and this value is known as the optimum pH. Extremely high or low pH values can lead to loss of enzyme activity and stability.

Phosphofructokinase is sensitive to acidity, meaning that it is inhibited by low pH levels.

2. The correct answer is temperature.

Enzyme is sensitive to the environmental conditions such as temperature changes.

Temperature is a factor that usually increases the rate of enzyme-catalyzed reactions by increasing the activity of enzymes. But, after reaching the optimum temperature, reaction rate abruptly declines. This happens because enzymes are deactivated or denatured at a certain temperature (above 40° C).

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

q = 0.42

Explanation:

This question is an example of Hardy-Weinberg question and there are two equations necessary to carry out this question;

p + q = 1

p² + 2pq + q²  = 1

where;

p = the frequency of the dominant allele

q =  the frequency of the recessive allele

p² = the frequency of individuals with homozygous dominant genotype

2pq  = the frequency of individuals with heterozygous genotype

q² = frequency of individuals with the homozygous recessive genotype

Since the total  population = 425

q² = \frac{individuals with recessive genotype}{Total Population}

= \frac{75}{425}

q² = 0.1765            

To find q; we need to square root both side to           eliminate the square from  q².

∴ \sqrt{q^2}=\sqrt{0.1765}

q = 0.4201

q = 0.42       (to two decimal places)
