The head of a giraffe is 2.0 m above its heart and the density of the blood is 1.05 103 kg/m3. what is the difference in pressur

e between the giraffe's heart and head? (fortunately, a giraffe's neck has a special circulatory system to adapt to this neck length, producing an even flow of blood to the head.)

The giraffe head is higher than its heart so the blood pressure in the head must be lower than in the heart. The pressure is directly related to the density, gravity, and the height. The calculation would be:

<span>P = ρ*g*h 
</span>P= 1.05* 10^3 kg/m3 * 9.8m/s2 * 2m= <span>20 580 pascals= 20.58 kpa</span>

The pedigree shows the inheritance of an autosomal recessive disorder. What is the genotype of Steve and Sonya's son?
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The answer is pp

Explanation:

Steve and Sonya's son genotype is pp. Because an inheritance of autosomal recessive disorder  is with recessive allele responsible for the exceptional phenotype. In this case, Steve and Sonya are both heterozygotes, Pp, which means they both have a p allele  because each one gave the boy a p, contributing to affect his son. And since we are talking about inheritance of an autosomal disorder, we know that the parents phenotypic proportions are the same.
