Answer:

D. Nitrogen-14 has 7 electrons, 7 protons, 7 neutrons nitrogen-15 has 7 electrons, 7 protons, and 8 neutrons

Explanation:

In an atom, number of electrons is equal to the number of protons.  And the number of neutrons is equal to the difference between the mass number of the atom and the atomic number. For Nitrogen 14, electron is 7, proton is also 7 as number  of electrons and number of protons are equal. So, the neutron will be 14-7= 7. For Nitrogen 15, electron number is 7 so proton number will be also 7. Neutron number for nitrogen 15 will be 15-7= 8. That's why the answer is option number 4.

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Part 1:

The mother’s genotype is ii, rr, MN

The father’s genotype is IAIA/IAi, Rr, MM

Part 2:

Approximately 1/32 (3.125%) of children can be expected to have the stated blood types.

Explanation:

Part 1:

The mother has blood types 0, Rh- and MN. Therefore, her genotype has to be ii, rr, MN.

The father has ABO type A. His ABO genotype may therefore be either IAIA or IAi, as both are compatible with type A offspring with a type 0 mother. His Rh genotype must be rr, since his Rh- child necessarily has to have inherited one r allele from each parent. Finally, his MN genotype has to be MM since both alleles are codominant.

Part 2:

Using the given data, we build the following Punnett chart:

                IA R N     IA r N     i R N     i r N    

IA R M

IA R N

IA r M

IA r N

IB R M

IB R N

IB r M                                                    X

IB r N                                                              

Note that, of all 32 possible combinations, only a single one of them (marked with “X” produces a genotype which matches the desired blood type, as follows:

genotype: IBi, rr, MN

blood type: B, Rh-, MN

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Less oxygen.  Less life.

Explanation:

Plants make up most of our oxygen here on earth, because of the carbon cycle and photosynthesis.  They take carbon dioxide, and turn it into oxygen.  And not only that, but some animals live in trees to protect themselves from birds and other animals.

Describe the structure and the function of the stomach. Be sure to include cells and tissues relating to this organ.
Vikentia [17]

Connective tissues support the tissues of the mucosa and connect it to the muscularis layer.

The blood supply of the submucosa provides nutrients to the wall of the stomach. Nervous tissue in the submucosa monitors the contents of the stomach and controls smooth muscle contraction and secretion of digestive substances.

<h3>What is the function of the stomach?</h3>

The stomach secretes acid and enzymes that digest food. Ridges of muscle tissue called rugae line the stomach.

The stomach muscles contract periodically, churning food to enhance digestion. The pyloric sphincter is a muscular valve that opens to allow food to pass from the stomach to the small intestine.

Thus, this could be the answer.
