Hyperbole. It’s an extreme exaggeration
julia-pushkina [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A. Hyperbole

Explanation:

Remember that the hyperbole is a figure of speech in which the author exaggerates to an extreme in an obvious way. This is done in order to make emphasis or to describe something in a more creative way. In this case the author wants to emphasize the fact that he has been reading Moby Dk for so much time he feels years have passed. As he is a junior in high school we know he is young so the exaggeration is evident.

15. Suppose a human blood cell containing a 0.9 percent solute concentration were put into a container of 30 percent solute solu
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Smaller

Explanation:

The human blood cell has a smaller percentage of solute concentration than the solution it was placed into. This means that the cell is hypotonic in comparison to the solution, and the solution is hypertonic compared to the cell. When a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution it undergoes crenation, meaning it shrivels up. Water moves from the lower solute concentration to the higher solute concentration. The water inside the cell moves outside to the hypertonic solution. This causes the cell to become smaller.

Which of the following describes the ability of a single gene to have multiple phenotypic effects?
bija089 [108]

Answer:

A, pleiotropy.

Explanation:

Pleiotropy - genes that have multiple phenotypic effects. Remember that phenotype means a physical characteristic caused by a gene, such as eye color or fur patterns.

Incomplete dominance - when neither allele is dominant and they mix together in the phenotype. A popular example is a red flower crossing with a white flower and resulting in a pink flower.

Epistasis - when two genes contribute to the phenotype, but one gene completely masks another gene. An example would be labrador fur colors.

Multiple alleles - 3 or more alternative forms of a gene, but only 2 alleles can occupy an organism. An example is blood type.

Hope this helps!
