A pregnant woman's energy requirements increase by about ______ in the last two trimesters.

Biology
1 answer:
Leviafan [203]3 years ago
5 0
A pregnant woman's energy requirements increase by about 350 to 450 kcal per day in the last two trimesters. Dietary intake during pregnancy must provide the energy that will ensure the full-term delivery of a healthy newborn baby of adequate size and appropriate body composition. This explains why there is an increase in energy requirements in the last two trimesters.

How is the genotype of the offspring different from that of the homozygous dominant parent?
tatuchka [14]

Since it's been crossed with a homozygous wrinkled green, the offspring has a genotype for heterozygous round and yellow. As round and yellow are dominant traits, they're expressed in the phenotype. But when self pollinated in the f2 generation, the recessive ones will show as well

Hope it helps :')

A student conducts an experiment to see how music affects plant growth. The student obtains four identical plants. Each one is p
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Plant A listens to classical music for three hours each day

Explanation:

  • Music affect plant growth of plants through the vibrations that it creates to the sound waves.Classical music causes more pressure to the sound waves causing vigorous vibrations  which is picked up by the plants speeding up the protoplasmic movement in the cells.
  • The vibrations causes movement of  the plant cells which speed up growth of the plants by stimulating the plants to produce more nutrients enabling them to germinate having more leaves,greater in size and other improved characteristics which means the plant's genetic chromosomes were changed.  
  • Also in the soil  is able to produce good fungi and bacteria encouraging better root development due to healthy vines resulting to vigorous growth and better fruit.
  • Moreover the plants are able to receive special attention and care from the farmer thus enhancing faster growth.

Answer:

Air pollution harms human health and the environment. In Europe, emissions of many air pollutants have decreased substantially over the past decades, resulting in improved air quality across the region. However, air pollutant concentrations are still too high, and air quality problems persist. A significant proportion of Europe’s population live in areas, especially cities, where exceedances of air quality standards occur: ozone, nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter (PM) pollution pose serious health risks. Several countries have exceeded one or more of their 2010 emission limits for four important air pollutants. Reducing air pollution therefore remains important.

Air pollution is a local, pan-European and hemispheric issue. Air pollutants released in one country may be transported in the atmosphere, contributing to or resulting in poor air quality elsewhere.

Particulate matter, nitrogen dioxide and ground-level ozone, are now generally recognised as the three pollutants that most significantly affect human health. Long-term and peak exposures to these pollutants range in severity of impact, from impairing the respiratory system to premature death. Around 90 % of city dwellers in Europe are exposed to pollutants at concentrations higher than the air quality levels deemed harmful to health. For example, fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in air has been estimated to reduce life expectancy in the EU by more than eight months. Benzo(a)pyrene is a carcinogenic pollutant of increasing concern, with concentrations being above the threshold set to protect human health in several urban areas, especially in central and eastern Europe.

"Air pollution is causing damage to human health and ecosystems. Large parts of the population do not live in a healthy environment, according to current standards. To get on to a sustainable path, Europe will have to be ambitious and go beyond current legislation."
