A tsunami travel across the ocean at a speed of 500 km/h. If the distance between crests is 200 km, what is the frequency of the

In this problem we will use the formula: f = c/λ

Wherein: f = frequency
c = speed of wave
λ = wavelength of wave

500 km/h / 200 km = 2.5 Hz

<span>In this problem, speed and the distance between crests are given. Therefore, all you have to do is to divide the speed by the wavelength to determine the frequency using the formula provided.</span>

Answer: Incomplete dominance

Explanation: Incomplete dominance is a type of inheritance, specifically a type of intermediate inheritance when a dominant allele, or form of a gene, does not completely mask the effects of a recessive allele, and the organism’s resulting physical appearance shows a blending of both alleles. The result is a phenotype (expression) where the expressed physical trait is a combination of both of the phenotypes that belong to the alleles. One allele doesn’t mask or dominate the other alleles in this instance. It is also called semi-dominance or partial dominance.

In short, incomplete dominance is when neither gene is fully dominant, and the result is a brand new trait.

The Punnett square shows genetic inheritance as a simple model with only two different versions of alleles: dominant and recessive. In this simple relationship, dominant alleles always override the recessive alleles to be expressed in the organism’s appearance or phenotype. It was created by Gregor Mendel and was important because it contradicted popular ideas at the time that the traits of the parents were simply permanently blended within their offspring. However, modern biologists have discovered that inheritance isn’t as simple as this model would suggest.

An example of incomlete dominance in humans would be hypercholesterolemia.

The blood sugar in your body is maintained by a gland that acts as an exocrine and endocrine gland. It is the _____.
lys-0071 [83]
The pancreas maintains the body’s blood glucose (sugar) balance. The pancreas is unique in that it’s both an endocrine and exocrine gland. In other words, the pancreas has the dual function of secreting hormones into blood (endocrine) and secreting enzymes through ducts (exocrine).

inysia [295]
<span>The discoverers of DNA were not James D Watson and Francis Crick. They are the first scientist to formulate an accurate description of the DNA’s (deoxyribonucleic acid) complex , double-helical structure. They discovered that base pairing nucleotides must be; adenine and thymine; and cytosine and guanine. These base pairs are held together by a hydrogen bond, atype of chemical reaction that s easy to break and easy to reform. The statement is “DNA is a double helix made of two strands linked together with hydrogen bonds.”</span>
