guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

99 to 138.6 bpm

Explanation:

The heart rate of an individual is a measure of how many times the heart beats in a given time, usually measured in beats per minute (bpm).

Resting heart rate is the number of beats per minute when an individual at rest. Generally, it can be understood that the lower the resting heart rate, the more physically fit an individual is.

The maximum heart rate for an individual is 220 minus their age. The target heart rate for moderate physical activity is 50-70% of the maximum heart rate and for vigorous physical activity it is 70-85% of the maximum heart rate.

Based on Holly's age, her maximum heart rate is 220 - 22 = 198 bpm

Her heart rate zone for moderate physical activity is 50-70% of 198 bpm: 99 to 138.6 bpm

Her heart rate zone for vigorous physical activity is 70-85% of 198 bpm: 138.6 to 168.3 bpm

Simora [160]

Answer:

The question lacks options, the options are:

A) 1 out of 16

B) 3 out of 16

C) 6 out of 16

D) 9 out of 16

The answer is 1 out of 16

Explanation:

This is a DIHYBRID cross because it involves two different genes coding for distinct traits. One of the traits will be dominant while the other recessive. Hence, parents that are purebred for opposite forms of the trait means that one parent is homozygous dominant while the other is homozygous recessive. When these two parents cross, they produce F1 offsprings that all possess the dominant trait but heterozygous/hybrids.

When these hybrids are self-crossed, they produce four different combinations of gametes which when crossed using a punnet square will result in F2 offsprings with a 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio according to Mendel's observation.

9 represents offsprings that are dominant for both traits

The two 3's represents offsprings that are recessive for one trait and dominant for the other respectively.

1 represents offsprings that are homozygous recessive for both traits.

Hence, 1 out of 16 offsprings will be homozygous recessive for both traits.
