3) The most common form of color-blindness - red/green color-blindness - is an X-linked recessive trait affecting around 8% of t

he male population in the US. What proportion of females would you expect to have this trait?

Answer:

0.08, because for an X-linked trait the genotype frequencies among males are the same as the allele frequencies. Therefore, you would expect about q2 = 0.0064 (or 0.64%) of the female population to be affected and 2pq =0.147 (or 14.7%) of the female population to be carriers.

Based on the name of this organism, what can you predict about its morphology?
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

<em>S. aureus</em> is spherical and arranged in clusters

Explanation:

<em>Staphylococcus aureus </em>is a gram positive bacteria that forms a part of our body microbiota. It is usually found on skin and in upper respiratory tract. The genus name of this organism is <em>Staphylococcus </em>which tells a lot about its morphology. Cocci or coccus is the name given to bacteria who appear spherical. Staph points out to their arrangement which is in clusters. Had it been <em>Streptococcus</em>, it would mean that the bacteria were spherical and arranged in long chains. Similarly, <em>Diplococcus</em> would mean that the bacteria were spherical and arranged in groups of two. Hence from the name <em>Staphylococcus aureus </em> we can say that it is spherical and arranged in clusters.

An object has a weight of 21,532 N on Earth. What is the mass of the object?
Nuetrik [128]

7) 2,197 kg

The weight of an object on Earth is given by:

W=mg

where m is the mass of the object and g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity. Since we know the weight of the object, W=21,532 N, we can re-arrange the equation to calculate the object's mass:

m=\frac{W}{g}=\frac{21,532 N}{9.8 m/s^2}=2,197 kg


8) 2,197 kg

Mass is an intrinsec property of an object: it says "how much matter" is contained within an object. Therefore, the mass of an object does not depend on its location: so, the object has the same mass on Earth and on the moon, and so its mass is still the same as the previous exercise, 2,197 kg.


9) 187,500 N

The force exerted on an object is given by Newton's second law:

F=ma

where m is the mass of the object and a its acceleration. In this problem, m=250 kg and a=750 m/s^2, so the force exerted on the object is

F=(250 kg)(750 m/s^2)=187,500 N


10) 2nd Law

Newton's second law states that an object which is acted upon a force experiences an acceleration given by:

a=\frac{F}{m}

where F is the force and m the mass of the object. As a result, the object accelerates, so if it was at rest, it starts moving.

This is exactly what happens in this example: the ball is initially at rest, but then a force is applied on it (by the kick), so the ball is accelerated and it starts moving.

What did the invention of agriculture do for early people?
ruslelena [56]
Farming meant that people did not need to travel to find food.( nomadic lifestyles became scarce) Instead, they began to live in settled communities,or villages and grew crops or raised animals on nearby land.

Leya [2.2K]

Peripheral nervous system is responsible for digesting food and eliminating body waste

Explanation:

Peripheral nervous system is also called autonomic nervous system. It is responsible for the basic body function. These functions are breathing, shivering, sweating and also digestion. Autonomic nervous can be divided into two other parts.

The Parasympathetic nervous system and Sympathetic Nervous System  

Sympathetic nervous system also prepares our body for stress.  If we find something wrong and we frighten wit it then hearts beat becomes faster.

Parasympathetic nervous system is opposite of Sympathetic nervous system. It helps and prepares our body for rest.
