Answer: 0%

Explanation: In the ABO blood type, blood types are classified based on the antigens present in the red blood cells. The antigens that are found in the red blood cells are of two types: A antigens and B antigens.

In blood grouping, blood type A contains A antigens, blood type B contains B antigens, blood type AB contains A and B antigens while blood type O has neither A nor B antigens.

These blood groups are controlled by two alleles (a pair of gene). If a woman with type O blood marries a man who is heterozygous for blood type B, none of the children will have blood type AB not even the first child because each child will inherit one allele from each parent.

Therefore, since neither the woman nor the man has antigen A in their system then none of the children will have blood type AB. For an individual to have blood type AB, he must have inherited antigens A and B, one from each parent.

This implies that the probability that the first child will have AB blood type is 0%.

This is the case because Eleanor is making these temperature changes.

Explain why conservation is the most important strategy in the soil management programs of agriculture

Conservation is the most important strategy in the soil management programs of agriculture

In the soil management various practices are followed which will help to conserve the soil and so as to increase the fertility of the soil. Being the most important step conservation is very mandatory, as the building up of new soil will take a lot of time. It also protects the soil from the bad weather and protects the erosion. In conservation process it helps in the nutrient preservation, which can give good yield when practised cultivation. More crops can be easily grown , which will fetch more money. The conserving soil can also help in biochar fertilizer.

Elina [12.6K]

Her hypothesis is wrong. Increased temperature causes an increase in kinetic energy. The higher kinetic energy causes more motion in the gas molecules which break intermolecular bonds and escape from solution.
