Answer: A -endomorphs

Endomorphs usually have a shorter build and they gain fat very easily. Thus endomorphs are short and stout. They have very heavy arms. They have strong muscles in the upper leg.

Answer:

The correct answer is option A, Endomorphs

Explanation:

There are three body types in human beings and the characteristics features of all three body types is as follows:

1. Ectomorph - Skinny appearance, Small chest, joints, bones and buttocks, Less body fat (without exercising), long limbs and Gains weight (build muscles) with difficulty

2. Mesomosph - Heavy body, Strong build, Gains muscles and fat easily, have Athletic body of rectangular shape

3. Endomorph – Soft and round body, short limbs, Gains muscles and fat easily

Thus considering the features of all three body types, it is clear that Endomorphs are short and stout

identify a probable reason that the dark moths survived while the light moths did not during the industrial revolution

nignag [31]

Answer:

directional selection

Explanation:

The directional selection is a type of Darwinian selection where a particular phenotype is favored in the population, thereby modifying the allelic frequencies to increase the proportion of the favored phenotype. <em>Biston betularia</em>, also known as peppered moth, is a species that was influenced by directional selection in its recent past. Before the industrial revolution, the frequency of light-colored moths was predominant compared to the darker-colored phenotypes, because this color has higher adaptive fitness in a clean, no pollution environment, thereby light-colored moths were able to avoid predatory birds. However, during the industrial revolution, the frequency of dark-colored moths increased in response to pollution (i.e. darker environment), thereby conferring a higher adaptive fitness to darker phenotypes.

What is the measured output force of a pulley system if the Mechanical Advantage is 0.48 and measured input force is 10N?

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Output force is 4.8 N

Explanation:

A pulley is a simple machine made of a grooved wheel with a rope or cable wrapped around it. Pulleys are used in the transmission of energy or motion.

The input force is also known as the applied force while the output force is the force exerted on an object by a simple machine.

The mechanical advantage of a pulley is the ratio of the output force to the input force.

Mechanical advantage = output force / input force

Substituting:

0.48 = output force / 10

Output force = 4.8 N

Biological transmission differs from mechanical transmission in that biological transmission involves reproduction of a pathogen

Taya2010 [7]

Biological transmission involves reproduction of pathogens in an arthropod vector prior to transmission. In terms of epidemiology, we can term a vector as an organism that is from infected to the uninfected. An infected organism which develops biological vector passes it to its host. For example a mosquito.

A mosquito being a mechanical vector carries an infected organism to its host either through the legs or through the other body parts
