The right option is; Linnaeus primarily used physical characteristics

Some of Carl Linnaeus’s classifications of organisms are incorrect because he primarily used physical characteristics.

Carl Linnaeus, known as the father of taxonomy, was a Swedish biologist who classified organisms according to their physical characteristics. Carl Linnaeus proposed that there were three major groups, named kingdoms. These kingdoms were animals, plants, and minerals. He divided each of the kingdoms into five levels which are; class, order, genus, species, and variety. Organisms were arranged in these levels according to their traits, which include physical appearance such as body size, and shape, similarities of body structure, and way of obtaining food.

A certain buffer is made by mixing a weak acid HA and its conjugate base A–. When HA is present at a concentration of 0.5 mM and
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:The ratio of the concentrations of HA  and A^- when the buffer has a pH of 7.02 is 0.69

Explanation:

The dissociation constant for formic acid = K_a=1.8\times 10^{-4}

Concentration of HA= 0.5 mM

Concentration of A^-= 0.1 mM

pH = 6.16

First we have to calculate the value of K_a.

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[A^-}{[HA]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

6.16=pK_a+\log (\frac{[0.1]}{0.5})

pK_a=6.86

To calculate the ratio of the concentrations of HA  and A^- when the buffer has a pH of 7.02.

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

7.02=6.86+\log \frac{[A^-]}{[HA]}

7.02=6.86+\log \frac{[A^-]}{[HA]}

\frac{[A^-]}{[HA]}=1.44

\frac{[HA]}{[A^-]}=0.69

Thus the ratio of the concentrations of HA  and A^- when the buffer has a pH of 7.02 is 0.69

The increase in volume of the muscle fibers due to the enlargement of its components is referred to as
Lelu [443]

Answer:

The increase in volume of the muscle fibers due to the enlargement of its components is referred to as hypertrophy.

Explanation:

Hypertrophy is about increasing the size of the transverse diameter of muscle fibers, it causes the muscle to grow in volume, due to the stimulation of the growth of muscle cells without cell division in the muscle. Hypertrophy occurs as a result of resistance training.
