<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is first; some of the energy disperses as heat.

<u>Explanation:</u>

First law of thermodynamics states that energy is always conserved in a system which means that energy can neither be created, nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another.

Second law of thermodynamics states that all spontaneous processes are accompanied by increase in entropy or randomness.

Hence, the correct answer is first; some of the energy disperses as heat.

A population of 100 tigers has 30 with horizontal stripes. Using pedigrees, you ascertain that horizontal striping is caused by
bixtya [17]

Assuming that this population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, we can sayt that  <em>the</em><em> probability</em><em> that, given enough time, all tigers in the population will have horizontal stripes is</em><em> 30% = 0.3.</em>

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

<u>Available data:</u>

  • Population size, N = 100 tigers
  • Number of Tigers with horizontal stripes = 30
  • Horizontal stripes is caused by an autosomal recessive mutation.

We need to know the probability that all tigers in the population will have horizontal stripes, which is the recessive phenotype.

We assume that the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, so there should be no evolution.

Since the population is in H-W equilibrium, the allelic, genotypic and phenotypic frequencies will remain the same generation after generation.

Now, we will calculate the allelic and genotypic frequencies of horizontal striped individuals in the population.

There are 100 individuals, and only 30 have horizontal stripes.

So, the phenotypic frequency, F(HS) is 30/100 = 0.3 = 30%

Since this is a recessive phenotype, this value equals the genotypic frequency, F(hh) = 30%

Finally, we can get the allelic frequency by taking the square root of this value.

F(hh) = q² = 0.3

f(h) = q = √0.3 = 0.55 = 55%

According to these calcs, the probability for the fixation of the recessive allele is 55%, and the probability that all individuals express the recessive horizontal stripes phenotype is 30%.

Arteries carry blood away from the heart.<br><br> True<br><br> False
shutvik [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The arteries (red) carry oxygen and nutrients away from your heart, to your body's tissues. The veins (blue) take oxygen-poor blood back to the heart. Arteries begin with the aorta, the large artery leaving the heart. They carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to all of the body's tissues.

Is there a human carrying capacity on Earth? Explain why or why not.
ira [324]

Answer: Every species has a carrying capacity, even humans. However, it is very difficult for ecologists to calculate human carrying capacity. Humans are a complex species. We do not reproduce, consume resources, and interact with our living environment uniformly.
