PH, acids, and bases

Biology
1 answer:
marishachu [46]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

B. It is acidic

Explanation:

Acid refers to the presence of hydrogen ion. If the concentration of hydrogen increases, the solution will be more acidic or if the concentration of hydrogen ions decrease, the solution will be less acidic. There are two methods for finding pH of a solution i. e. pH paper and litmus paper. If the blue litmus turns red, the solution is acidic. The pH ranges from 1 to 6 denotes acid. pH of skin is 5.5 which comes in the above range so it is acidic in nature.

Tropical rainforests have high species richness of trees. Provide the most reasonable explanation why animal species richness is
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Here, is the question with the explanations to pick from to complete the question

Tropical rainforests have high species richness of trees. Which of the following statements provides the MOST reasonable explanation why animal species richness is also high in tropical rainforests?

Animals are unable to adapt to climate variability in higher latitudes.

Animals have had the same amount of time to evolve in rainforest areas as trees.

Animal diversification rates are higher than those of trees.

Animals have diversified into the vast number of niches provided by tree diversity

The last option is the most reasonable one

Our answer is:

Animals have diversified into the vast number of niches provided by tree

Explanation:

The reason is that a lot of species are highly specialized to occupy a particular niche. Where that favourable niche exists, the population of that species increases as its offspring colonize new areas.

A person with a phenotype of HbSS has sickle cell disease. A person with a phenotype of HbAS allele carries the sickle cell trai
makkiz [27]

The right answer is 1/4.

Two carriers of the disease each have a chance in two to transmit their sick gene ie: 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4

A genetic disease is said to be autosomal recessive when

The gene involved is carried by an autosome (non-sex chromosome, X or Y in XY system of sexual determination);

The associated phenotype of this trait is recessive (the presence of two identical alleles is essential for the character to be expressed).

One of the two alleles is transmitted by the male gamete, the other by the female gamete.

But being a carrier of the mutation does not necessarily mean being sick, the manifestations of a genetic disease depend on its penetrance and the variability of its expression.
