When a dolphin jumps, it moves its muscles and chemical potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. Some of this energy is

lost to the dolphin. Explain why this phenomenon does not violate the Law of Conservation of Energy.
The dolphin is a closed system, so energy is allowed to exit the system.
The energy is transferred to waves in the surrounding water.
The muscles recapture the energy when they relax after contractions.
The Law of Conservation of Energy does not apply to biological systems.

I would say the answer is either A or B, the Law of Consevation of Energy states that,"<span>the total energy of an isolated system remains constant</span>" so this energy isn't destroyed, it's simply useless. When we use energy to run, our energy is released as heat, so I would assume that it is the same for other creatures. Let me know if this helps.

A pea plant that has round seeds has the genotype Rr. It is crossed with a pea plant that has wrinkled seeds and the genotype rr
Mariulka [41]
The correct answer is 50%, or 1/2. We know that round seeds are dominant, since the round pea plant has a genotype of Rr and the wrinkled pea plant has a genotype of rr. If it helps, draw a Punnett square with the two genotypes.

   R  r
r
r

The square works exactly like a coordinate grid. Combine the letters above and beside whichever of the four spaces you chose to find the genotype for that space.

   R  r
r Rr  rr
r Rr  rr

Therefore, 2 out of 4 of the pea plants have round seeds, since a genotype of Rr means that a plant will have round seeds, and 2 out of 4 will have wrinkled seeds, since a genotype of rr means that a plant will have wrinkled seeds. 2/4 simplifies to 1/2, or 50%. Therefore, there is a 50% chance that the offspring will have wrinkled seeds.

Hope this helps!

"Genetic power is far more potent than atomic power. And it will be in everyone's hands. It will be in kits for backyard gardene
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

These facts are true and disturbing

Explanation:

Genetics is a discipline that has advanced incredibly in the last years. For example, by using the versatile CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing system, we are now able to insert literally any sequence into a given genome in vivo. The CRISPR-Cas9 is a technology that can be used in a regular molecular biology laboratory. It is expected this technique will enable in the near future to correct genetic disorders that have plagued mankind since times immemorial. However, genomic technologies like that could be used by malignant persons to hurt innocent people, thereby it is imperative that countries regulate their use.
