Answer:

C.The percentage of essential body fat is the same for both males and females.

Explanation:

Among the given statements, only C is incorrect. Typically, on average, women have 5-12% more body fat than men. This has been mainly linked with the female hormones (e.g. oestrogen). Firstly, women can store more fat in their bodies due to the presence of excessive adipose tissues. Secondly, they are suppose to carry a child at some stage of their life, so a better food supply and protection is necessary.

On the other hand, rest of the options are true. Essential body fat is always required by body. It accounts for 3% of total body wight. And, it can be found in organs, bones and muscles at different percentages.

Answer:

If the genotype of the parents are <em>Iᵃi </em>and <em>I</em>ᵇ<em>i, </em>then four type of offspring will be produced.The genotype of the offspring are, <em>IᵃIᵇ, Iᵃi,Iᵇi, </em>and <em>ii.</em>

Explanation:

<em>IᵃIᵇ = </em>As the alleles are co-dominant in nature, so both type of alleles are expressed. The blood group will be AB. So, both A and B type of antigen will be found in plasma membrane of RBC.

<em>Iᵃi= </em>In this type of genotype only A type of antigen will be expressed in the membrane of RBC. The blood group will be A type.

<em>Iᵇi= </em>In this type of genotype only B type of antigen will be expressed in the membrane of RBC. The blood group will be B type.

<em>ii= </em>This is a recessive type of genotype. So, no antigen will be found on the membrane of the RBC. And the blood group will be O type.

The offspring's ratio will be 1:1:1:1.

Which chicken wing is right or left explain ur answer 50 POINTS ON LINE AGAIN
rusak2 [61]

When we talk about the chicken wing in golf, it’s not the food or even the literal part of a bird. Instead, it’s the position of your front arm (left arm for a right-handed player), specifically in your follow-through. It’s called a chicken wing because your arm sort of looks like a chicken wing.

Sorry, I don't really understand this question... But hopefully it helps you in some way! :)
