Reducing the amount of trans fats in the diet is an effective method of decreasing the risk of CHD. Which food is most likely a

source of trans fats? ​
Biology
1 answer:
Alchen [17]3 years ago
8 0

Trans fats are the fats that went through hydrogenation, this means, liquid oils became solids, and this is used by the industry to make some food.

The purpose of this is to get a more balanced and better texture in the final result.

They increase the bad cholesterol, and this made us more propense to have coronary heart disease.

This kind of fat is more likely to be found in fast food (fried), all pastry that uses butter and some frozen food like pizza or ice cream.

1. Flower position, stem length, and seed shape are three characters that Mendel studied. Each is controlled by an independently
maria [59]

Answer:

a. 1/64 AATTDD

b. 1/64 aattdd

c. 8/64=1/8 AaTtDd

d. 2/64 = 1/32 AATTDd or aattDd or AAttDd or aaTTDd

Explanation:

<u>Available data:</u>

  • Flower position: Axial (A) is dominant to Terminal (a)
  • Stem length: Tall (T) is dominant to dwarf (t)
  • Seed shape: Round (R) is dominant to wrinkled (r)

<u>Cross</u>:

Parental) AaTtDd   x   AaTtDd

Knowing that these four genes assort independently, then we can infer that the F1 will have the next genotypic proportions for each gene:

  • AA= 1/4

       Aa =2/4

       aa = 1/4

  • TT = 1/4

        Tt = 2/4

         tt = 1/4

  • DD = 1/4

        Dd = 2/4

        dd = 1/4

<em>This is the same as developing a Punnett square for each gene separately.</em>

Knowing this, to get each of the mentioned genotypes for each trait, we must multiply their respective genotypic proportions, like this:

a. homozygous for the three dominant traits, AATTDD

   AA1/4 x TT 1/4 x DD 1/4 = AATTDD 1/64

b. homozygous for the three recessive traits, aattdd

   aa 1/4 x tt 1/4 x dd 1/4 = aattdd 1/64

c. heterozygous for all three characters, AaTtDd

   Aa 2/4 x Tt 2/4 x Dd 2/4 = AaTtDd 8/16=1/8

d. homozygous for axial and tall, heterozygous for seed shape. There are four possibilities, all of them with the same result:

AATTDd --> 1/4  x 1/4 x 2/4 = 2/64=1/32

aattDd ---> 1/4 x 1/4 x 2/4 = 2/64=1/32

AAttDd ---> 1/4 x 1/4 x 2/4 = 2/64=1/32

aaTTDd ---> 1/4 x 1/4 x 2/4 = 2/64=1/32

Rank the following elements by increasing atomic radius carbon aluminum oxygen potassium
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The elements in increasing order of atomic radius: oxygen, carbon, aluminum, potassium

Explanation:

The distance from the center of the nucleus to the outermost shell of the electron is known as the atomic radius of an element. The atomic radius decreases rightward along each period (row) of the table due to the increase in effective nuclear charge (the charge of the nucleus equal to the number of protons). Across a period, electrons are added to the same energy level and the increasing number of protons causes the nucleus to exert more pull on these electrons, which makes the atomic radius smaller.  Atomic radius increases down each group (column) of the periodic table because of the addition of electrons to higher energy levels, which are further away from the nucleus and the pull of nucleus weakens. Another reason for the increase in atomic radius is the electron shielding effect, which is the reduction of the attractive force between a nucleus and its outer electrons due to the blocking effect of inner electrons

While moving from left to right in the second period, c arbon comes before  oxygen  and so oxygen will have a smaller atomic radius than  carbon. While moving down the periodic table, al uminum comes before  potassium even if they are not in the same period. So aluminum 's atomic radius will be smaller than that of  potassium  but bigger than that of  carbon  and  oxygen.

Can you please help me!? ​
monitta

Answer:

You need to compare the location of bands for X and X's child. X is the mother, so the child will have half of all its bands from its mother, and the other half must be from the father. Some bands that X and X's child have in common are at around 185bp and 130bp (it is difficult for me to determine the exact position). Then look at the bands which X and X's child do not have in common. Those bands must have come from the father. So now you compare the remaining bands to all the bands of Megabucks and see if they match up. You can see a band at around 60bp that the child has. The mother did not have this band, so it must have come from the father. Megabucks does not have this band, so he is not X's father.

Explanation:

I hope this has helped you a little. The main thing to know is that a child's bands come from their mother and father, so if half the bands match up to the mum, the other half have to match up to some of the father's bands. But a child will never have the same set of bands as one of their parents - it will be a mix of both parents' bands.

Explain what frame shift means and is it more or less likely to cause a noticeable mutation than a substitution
harina [27]

Answer:

A frameshift mutation can be described as a genetic mutation in which a single nucleotide or more than one nucleotide is inserted or deleted from the sequence of the DNA. As the gene expresses itself in the form of triplets of a genetic code, insertion or deletion can cause devastating changes in the genetic code due to which wrong proteins will be synthesized.

Frameshift mutations can be more noticeable than the substitution mutation. In a substitution mutation, only one of the nucleotides is shifted with another. The entire genetic code is not affected by it.
