Answer:

Determine the parental genotypes. You can use any letter you like but select one that has a clearly different lower case, for example: Aa, Bb, Dd.

Split the alleles for each parent and add them into your Punnett square around the edges.

Work out the new possible genetic combinations inside the Punnett square.

What benefits do plants with a smooth stem have? Does the stem type protect a plant?
gogolik [260]
<h3><u>Benefits of smooth stem  over rough stem:</u></h3>

Smooth stem plants like guava, eucalyptus etc do have a smooth layer of bark over its stem that comes out as a skin when they shed their barks. Whereas most of the other plants like mango, banyan etc do have a rough corrugated layer of bark over their stem.

The smooth stem doesn’t let water to accumulate in the bark which can led to infections to the tree. It also doesn’t allow any seed to settle on bark that can led to growth of parasites. Thereby this smooth bark saves the trees from some of the probable harm to the tree.

Does Ajay’s diet provide enough protein to meet his RDA of 0.8g/kg of body weight? (2.2lbs = 1kg)

Answer:

The correct answer is yes.

Explanation:

RDA or recommended dietary allowance refers to the minimum amount of a nutrient, that is, regarded as essential for the proper functioning of the body or to sustain good health. The RDA is formulated by the Nutrition Board of the National Research Council.  

In the given case, the weight of Ajay is 154 pounds. In terms of kilograms, 1 kg is equivalent to 2.2 pounds.  

Thus, 154 pounds will be equal to 154/2.2 = 70 Kg.  

Based on RDA, the requirement of protein for a healthy individual should be 0.8 g/kg of the body weight. Therefore, Ajay needs to consume 70*0.8 = 56 grams of protein. However, based on his diet he is consuming 78 grams of proteins in a day. Hence, it can be concluded that Ajay is consuming adequate protein to meet his RDA.
