Answer:

The males can only either be black or orange

Explanation:

There can be no male calico because for an offspring to be a calico the two codominant alleles must each be carried on the two X chromosomes and in the males, there is the presence of just one X chromosomes, thus they can either be black or be orange. For the females, the can only be black if they carry the black allele on both X chromosomes, the same goes for the orange.

A client with colitis inquires as to whether surgery eventually will be necessary. when teaching about the disease and its treat
AlladinOne [14]
The correct answer is that "for most clients, surgery is recommended only if non-surgical treatments have been unsuccessful." This is because of the guidelines involving medicine and surgery as well as guidelines involving the treatment of colitis. The question should have specified what type of colitis is the patient having, whether infectious or autoimmune. In infectious colitis, then surgery almost has no role and medical treatment with antibiotics as well as supportive therapy and fluid replacement are the only ones needed. In autoimmune colitis such as Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, while immunosuppressor drugs may have a role, surgery may be the mainstay of treatment especially those who are at risk of malignant degeneration.

Ike is conducting a scientific experiment involving clear adhesive tape.
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

see if the strips repel each other when brought close together

Explanation:

Electric fields can exert forces on objects, even if the objects involved are not touching. One way to demonstrate that electric fields exist around charged objects is to observe the effects of their forces at a distance.

Since Ike knows that each strip of tape carries a negative charge, he could see if the strips repel each other when brought close together.
