It is necessary because Oxygen demands need to be reduced.  This may require more aggressive support including the use of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or mechanical ventilation. Newborns born to drug-addicted mothers exhibit hyperirritability, exaggerated reflexes, and transient tachypnea.

Why would it be correct to say that heat rises? Explain....
satela [25.4K]
When air is heated up the molecules spread out and move faster, so heat rises because it is less dense than the cooler air around it.

In garden pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant to white flowers (p), and full pod shape (F) is dominant to constricted po
kifflom [539]

Answer:

The phenotypes are as follows

Purple, full- 9

Purple, constricted- 3

White, full- 3

White, constricted- 1

Genotype of parents are PpFf, each produce the following gametes: PF, Pf, pF and pf.

Explanation:

This is a dihybrid cross involving two distinct genes. One coding for flower color and the other for pod shape. The allele for purple color (P) is dominant over the allele for white color (p) while the allele for full pod (F) is dominant over the allele for constricted pod (f).

In a cross between two heterozygote parents i.e. PpFf × PpFf, each parent will produce the following gametes: PF, Pf, pF and pf. Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image) the following 16 offsprings will be produced in a phenotypic ratio: 9:3:3:1

Purple color, full pod- 9

Purple color, constricted pod- 3

White flower, full pod- 3

White flower, constricted pod- 1

Studies of fat cells a d thyroid cells show that fat cells have fewer mitochondria than thyroid cells. A biologist would most li
Eddi Din [679]
Think where mitochondria are found in the greatest numbers - they are found (for example) in liver cells, kidney cells, muscle cells etc. These tissues carry out a lot of work and thus require lots of energy. 

<span>Fat is a storage product that sits there until required but the thyroid does lots of work involved in metabolism and therefore requires plenty of energy.


This should help :)

icang [17]
1. breeding of individuals that have genes for two different characteristics:
DIHYBRID CROSS.
We call it a dihybrid cross when we are considering a cross between two different traits.
"di" means having two traits involved (for example, trait A and trait B), the "hybrid" means that each trait will have two different alleles (for gene A: A or a; for gene B: B or b), one is dominant and the other is recessive.

2. a grid system used to predict possible combinations of genes due to random fertilization: PUNNETT SQUARE
The Punnett square is a grid system that helps us predict an outcome of a cross or a breeding experiment. We this, we can determine the probability of an offspring having a particular genotype.
This is very useful when we are considering more than one gene,  making it less confusing.

3. a condition in which both alleles are dominant: CODOMINANCE
Tere are alleles that have the capacity of dominating at the same time, and when an organism is heterozygotic, both alleles are expressed.
For example, a white chicken(WW) crossed with a black chicken (BB):  100% of the offspring being WB. With this genotype, they have black feathers and white feathers. It's not a blend of colors, but a case where both are expressing.

4. when more than two alternatives exist for a gene: MULTIPLE ALLELES
Mendel thought that only two possible alternatives could exist for a gene, but there are cases that have more than 3 possibilities. Some of those can be really popular in a population while others not so much.
This happens with rabbit's fur. They can be black, brown, grayish,
Himalayan patterning or white fur.

 5.a condition in which neither pair of alleles is dominant or recessive, so the traits blend in the phenotype: INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE
Some alleles are not completely dominant, and when that's the case the phenotype of a heterozygous organism will be a mix between the phenotypes of its homozygous parents.
For example:
plant 1: RR -red
plant 2: rr-white
By crossing this plants we will obtain 100%  of the offspring with a color mix: pink.(genotype: Rr)
Red and white are not completely dominating so it results in a blend of colors.
