The thyroid sits low on the front of the neck. Your Thyroid lies below your Adam's apple, along the front of the windpipe. Thyroid hormones control metabolism, growth, body temperature, muscle strength, appetite, and the health of your heart, brain, kidneys, and reproductive system.

<span>The thyroid’s main role in the endocrine system is to regulate your metabolism, which is your body’s ability to break down food and convert it to energy. Food essentially fuels our bodies, and our bodies each “burn” that fuel at different rates. This is why you often hear about some people having “fast” metabolism and others having “slow” metabolism.</span>

The relative location of four genes on a chromosome can be mapped from the following data on crossover frequencies Genes B and D
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

3. CABD

Explanation:

The gene mapping refers to providing position to the genes on the chromosomes.  The first gene map was constructed by the Alfred Sturtevant on the basis of recombinant produces or recombination frequency which was calculated.

The gene mapping refers to providing position to the genes on the chromosomes.

In the given question to construct gene map:

1. Look for the highest recombination frequency that is 50% between the C and D.

2. Now look for second-highest value and place the gene accordingly.

3.Similarly, place the genes in the decreasing order of recombination frequency and this will result that the sequence of the genes is- CABD.

Thus, Option-3 is correct.

A student named Janine says that the measure of side b is 64 ft. Please state whether this is correct or incorrect. If this is i
kolezko [41]

The measure of side b as 64 ft is incorrect. The accurate measure would be 8 ft.

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse of a right-angle triangle is the sum of squares of the opposite and the adjacent sides. Mathematically:

hypotenuse^2 = opposite^2 + adjacent^2

In this case, the hypotenuse = 10 ft, the opposite = 6 ft and the adjacent = b

Hence,

b^2 = 10^2 - 6^2

       = 100 - 36

          = 64

b = √64

     = 8 ft

Thus, the side b is 8 ft and not 64 ft.
