Answer 1: Difference b/w wet and dry earwax genes is due to switch of a single DNA unit i.e. single nucleotide polymorphism.

Answer 2: Earwax is important in many ways mainly it is a biological flypaper as it prevents dust and insects from entering the ear.

Answer 3: Genetics have proved that for those who sweat a lot and have armpit odor have wet earwax.

Answer 4: The wet type earwax is dominant one with honey brown or dark brown color while dry one is recessive.

Answer 5: As wet earwax is dominant trait, according to the given scenario the genotype of parent with wet earwax will be "WW" which when crossed with dry earwax parent will have all the offsprings with wet earwax.

Muscle tone is ________. the condition of athletes after intensive training the ability of a muscle to efficiently cause skeleta
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

a state of sustained partial contraction

Explanation:

Simply said, muscle tone means that there is a sustained tension in a muscle wile in a determinate posture. The muscle tone enable us to mantaing our bodies in a posture fit for resting or for also working, like sitting, being stand up or in a couch or sleeping. The changes in the muscle tones make us able to move. So contractions will follow depending what activity we are engaged on, as a continous and passive partial contraction of muscles change following changes in direction.

Muscle tones have contractions that do not produce enough tension to move, buy they keep it tense and firm.

Thererefore the tension is balanced and resting muscle tone balances bones and joints.

See below :)

In physiology, medicine, and anatomy, muscle tone (residual muscle tension or tonus) is the continuous and passive partial contraction of the muscles, or the muscle's resistance to passive stretch during resting state. It helps to maintain posture and declines during REM sleep.

a. What is a star's spectrum?

A star's spectrum refers to the <em>"amount of light"</em> that stars they give off according to varying wavelengths. Since we cannot tell the amount of light a star gives off quantitatively from Earth, we can differentiate them according to how bright they appear.

b. Which spectrum is most common in stars?

Stars are classified according to their spectra <em>(elements in the star)</em>. They are classified into 7 types <em>(O, B, A, F, G, K and O). </em>The most common type is M, however, it gives off a dim light.

c. How can it differ from start to star?

Although stars follow a continuous spectrum, the spectra of a star differs from each other because <u>they do not give off the same amount of energy at the different wavelengths. </u>

d. What does the spectrum tell us about the star?

The spectrum can tell the<em> surface temperature</em> of the star. This means that a blue star (we often see it as a white-colored star from Earth) is hotter than that of a yellow star. A red star is considered the coolest star among all.

The spectrum of stars also allows the astronomers to study composition of the stars according to their <em>wavelengths.</em>
