Two resistors or resistance 2ohms and 4 ohms are connected in series and then in

Biology
1 answer:
kari74 [83]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Ratio = 9 : 2

Explanation:

We have been given two resistors, one with 2ohms rating and another with 4 ohms rating.

First they are connected in series. When resistors are connected into series, Equivalent resistance is given by:

Resistance (Equivalent) = R₁ + R₂ = 6 ohms

When these are connected in parallel, equivalent resistance becomes:

1 / Resistance (Equivalent) = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ = 1/2 + 1/4

1 / Resistance (Equivalent) = 3/4

Resistance (Equivalent) = 4/3

Ratio = R(Series)/ R(Parallel)

Ratio = 6 : 4/3

Ratio = 18 : 4

Ratio = 9:2

If two parents do not have widow's peaks, what is the probability that their child will have a widow's peak?
serious [3.7K]

Their child can not have a widow's peak, seeing as widow's peak is a dominant trait. They need two recessive alleles to have a straight hairline, meaning none can be inherited by the child.

Hope this helps.

Compare how solar energy is absorbed and emitted by Earth's surface
bekas [8.4K]
About 23 percent of incoming solar energy is absorbed in the atmosphere by water vapor, dust, and ozone, and 48 percent passes through the atmosphere and is absorbed by the surface. Thus, about 71 percent of the total incoming solar energy is absorbed by the Earth system.

The lactose (lac) operon in E. coli is an example of a repressed gene when lactose is not available in a cell. In 3-5 sentences
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Please find the detailed explanation of this statement below

Explanation:

Firstly, a repressed gene is a gene whose expression has been inhibited or repressed. The lac operon in E.coli bacteria is a regulatory unit containing structural genes, a single promoter and operator regions. The promoter is the region where the transcription enzyme (RNA polymerase) binds to in order to transcribe the genes in the lac operon. The structural genes in the lac operon can only be expressed in the presence of lactose sugar.

However, in the absence of lactose, LAC REPRESSOR, which is a transcription factor (protein), prevents the binding of RNA polymerase to the PROMOTER region by binding to the OPERATOR region of the lac operon. This inhibits the expression of the lactose genes in the operon.

Note that, the structural genes in the lac operon (lacZ, lacY, lacA) code for proteins that help break down lactose sugar for energy in the E.coli bacteria. Therefore, a bacteria cell with a repressed lac operon will be unable to degrade lactose sugar.

Contaminated soil can be rehabilitated by physical remediation methods, like aeration. What is another way soil can be treated t
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

C) Flush out the contaminants with an excessive amount of water.

Explanation:

Water is universal solvent. It dissolve many solutes inside it. Soil is contaminated with number of chemicals which is used by farmers for the controlling of pathogens. These chemicals remains on the soil for very long time. These chemicals are removed from the soil by applying high amount of water which flush out the chemicals from the soil.
