A simplified model of the human blood-type system has four blood types: a, b,ab and o. thereare two antigens, anti-a and anti-b.

anti-a reacts with blood type a and ab, anti-breactswith b and ab.for a given person, the probability of type a blood is 0.34, type b is 0.12 and type o is 0.5.find theprobability that anti-b will react to this person's blood

First calculate the probability of type AB, which is the remainder after subtracting types A, B and O.

P(AB) = 1-(0.34+0.12+0.5) = 1-0.96 = 0.04

Anti-b will react with types B and AB, so 
P(reaction) = P(B)+P(AB) = 0.12 +  0.04 = 0.16

Answer: For this person, the probability of reaction with anti-b is 0.16

pychu [463]

Answer:

b. Cities like New York, New Orleans, and Miami will be flooded by ocean water.

Explanation:

The theory says global warming will cause the temperature of the planetary atmosphere to rise. The hotter environment will make ice masses of Greenland, and the poles to melt completely and make coastal cities like New York, New Orleans, and Miami flooded by the ocean.

When electrons are added to the outermost shell of a carbon atom, it forms
NikAS [45]
When electrons are added to the outermost shell of a carbon atom, it forms an anion that has a larger radius. An anion always has a larger radius than a neutral atom of the same element. This is because more electrons cause greater repulsion between its nucleus and electrons, making the electrons move farther away from the center.

Explain what happens during the three phases of signal transduction.
Morgarella [4.7K]
The three phases of signal transduction is (1) reception, (2) transduction, and (3) response. Reception involves the binding of a ligand, may it be a hormone or a neurotransmitter; to a receptor, may it be a membrane receptor, cytosolic receptor, or a nuclear receptor. After binding of the ligand to the receptor, there will be signal transduction of events that will ultimately form a response. For instance, insulin actin on the insulin receptor will trigger a series of events that will increase the transcription of the gene translating for glucose transporters and ultimately, increase the number of glucose transporters embedded in the cell membrane leading to increased glucose uptake in tissues.
