<u>ANSWER:</u>

Contaminated clothing is not a high level radioactive waste but a low level radioactive waste.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

Radio-active waste is any waste that contains radio-active material and is usually a "by-product" of nuclear reactions. Radio-active waste is considered to be hazardous for all forms of life as well as the environment.

High level radio-active waste contains high levels of radio-active material and therefore must be disposed as soon as possible. Contaminated clothing has very low level of radio-active waste that can be removed by washing in appropriate medium.

The process which occurs in the structures that are labeled X is Kreb's cycle.
It has to do with releasing stored energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This is an extremely important part of metabolism and was first introduced by Hans Adolf Krebs in 1937.

Black fur (B) is dominant to white fur (b) in guinea pigs. An F1 cross was conducted and resulted in 100% heterozygous guinea pi

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

D. 1 BB : 2 Bb : 1 bb

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for fur color in guinea pig. Black fur (B) is dominant over white fur (b). This means that, as stated in the question, if a black fur parent (BB) is crossed with a white fur parent (bb), a 100% heterozygous offspring (Bb) with black fur will result.

If two heterozygous guinea pigs are crossed i.e. Bb × Bb, the following gametes will be produced by each heterozygous parent:

Bb = B and b

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), offsprings with the following genotypic ratio will be produced:

1 BB : 2 Bb : 1 bb

BB and Bb = black fur guinea pigs

bb = white fur guinea pigs
