Answer:

The given statement is true.

Explanation:

The given statement that is the scientists can determine the usual temperature of the Earth by reviewing an ice core is correct. By evaluating and studying the ice cores, scientists become familiar with the changing atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide, about the glacial-inter-glacial cycles, and the stability of the climate over the past 10000 years.

It also allows scientists to determine the past modifications in both the atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases and temperature.

Some seeds contain fluffy parachute like structure why

seropon [69]

Answer:

Usually, the larger the seed, the more food reserves it contains. ... For example, Dandelion seeds have developed very light and fluffy parachute-like structures. These help the seeds to float in the wind and delays their fall to the ground. This delay allows the seeds to be carried further.

In humans, the haploid number of chromosomes is 23. independent assortment has the possibility of producing __________ different

Gennadij [26K]

The answer to this question would be: 2^23

When the gene is dividing, the chromosome pair, which was made by 2 single chromosome, will be divided into two single haploid chromosomes. That means there is two kind of possibilities for each chromosome. If there are 23 chromosomes then it will be 2^23 possibilities

Assuming that both parents are heterozygous for the gene that causes the disease, what is the probability that the second child

LiRa [457]

The independent assortment of genes is a principle of Mendel and of genetics. Since humans are diploid organisms (they have 2 copies of their genetic information), we have that each gamete carries one of the two available alleles for each feature. These gametes are created in equal proportions.

We have that both parents are heterozygous for a feature, lets say H. Thus, their genotype is Hh. Hence, the child will get with probability 50%=1/2 H from the father and 50%=1/2 h from the father; same from the mother. By doing a Punnett square, we get that there is 1/4 chance that the child is HH, 1/2 chance that it is Hh and 1/4 that is hh. Since the disease is recessive (so both alleles are needed), we have that the chance that the kid has the disease is 1/4.

Use the key to identify each species. Write the letter of each species (A to G) in the correct

sveticcg [70]

Dichotomous keys are useful to identify organisms according to their morphological traits. The given key provides enough macroscopic morphological traits to identify these Arachnida species.

-----------------------------------------------

A dichotomous key is a significantly useful tool to classify organisms. The key provides an easy and fast way for identification by describing different morphological traits, leading you to the correct taxonomic classification.

The key provides morphological descriptions about different taxonomic groups in an easy way to identify these traits in your individual.

The term dichotomous refers to how information is provided. You will always have two options (a and b, or 1 and 2), and you will have to choose one of them according to the characteristics of your organism.

In the exposed example, as the key provides morphological traits, we will separate the organisms into two groups:

the group that has the trait
the group that does not have it.

By recognizing each trait in each of the individuals, we will get to identify the species.

(a) Abdomen with a tail --------------------------- The only option is E

(b) Abdomen without a tail ---------------------- All the others A, B, C, D, F, G

2 ---Only for group A, B, C, D, F, G---

(a) Legs much longer than abdomen and cephalothorax ----------A and G

(b) Legs not much longer than abdomen and cephalothorax----- B, C, D, F

3 ---Only for group A, G---

(a) Hairs on the legs -----------------------------------The only option is A

(b) No hairs on the legs ------------------------------ G

4 ---Only for group B, C, D, F---

(a) Cephalothorax or abdomen segmented ----------------The only option is D

(b) Cephalothorax or abdomen not segmented ----------- B, C, F

5 ---Only for group B, C, F---

(a) Abdomen and cephalothorax of the same size --------The only option is F

(b) Abdomen and cephalothorax of different size -------B, C

6 ---Only for group B, C---

(a) Body covered with long hair ----------------------------------The only option is C

(b) Body not covered with hair ------------------------------------B

A → Tegenaria domestica

B → Ixodes hexagonus

C → Tyroglyphus longior

D → Chelifer tuberculatus

E → Abaliella dicranotarsalis

F → Poecilotheria regalis

G → Odielus spinosus
