To what extent can very large earthquakes be predicted

Biology
1 answer:
Bas_tet [7]3 years ago
4 0

Scientists have tried lots of different ways of predicting earthquakes, but none have been successful. They<span> haven't been able to find a signal for earthquakes( there is no obvious sign to say that an earthquake is coming very soon).</span> They do have a pretty good idea of where an earthquake is most likely to hit, but they still can't predict exactly when it will happen.

However, the probability of a future earthquake can be calculated, based on scientific data. Scientists estimate that the probability of a major earthquake occurring in the San Francisco Bay area over the next 30 years is 67%.

- Start with the P generation with the following genotypes (AA x aa). Based on classical Mendelian inheritance, how will a cross
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is Although the F1 generation will all show the dominant trait, the offspring  will all be heterozygous and increase chances of future variation.</em>

Explanation:

The cross for the offsrings that will be produced by F1 generation is shown below:

         a          a

A      Aa       Aa

A      Aa        Aa

As we can see that all the offsprings in the F1 generation will have heterozygous genes but only the dominant trait will be seen in the phenotype of the F1 generation.

A cross between the F1 generation will give the following results:

         A          a

A      AA      Aa

a       Aa      aa

This cross shows that there will be increases genetic and phenotype variations in offsprings that will be produced by the F1 plants.

How is osmosis different from diffusion
kupik [55]
Diffusion is a spontaneous process in which molecules move with their concentration gradient. For example, if you place food coloring in water, the food coloring will slowly diffuse through the water until the entire solution has been balanced.

Osmosis is specifically the movement of <em>water</em> through a semipermeable membrane - meaning a membrane that can let some substances in but keep others out - and, similar to diffusion, it moves with its concentration gradient. For example, if you place a glucose solution sealed in plastic in water, water will move into the plastic to even out the concentration of glucose in the entire solution because glucose is too large to diffuse freely.

Hope this helped!
