Knowing the fact that around sixty percent of the human body is water, which consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atoms, and that other biomolecules like proteins also have oxygen atoms in their structure it's not a surprise that the percentage of oxygen in the human body mass is that high. 
Even though there are two hydrogen atoms and only one oxygen atom in the water molecule, the oxygen atom has 16 times more mass than the hydrogen atom and therefore has a bigger contribution to the overall body mass.

What force does the pressure-flow model depend on to move sugars?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Water follows the sugar molecules into the sieve elements through osmosis (since water passively diffuses into regions of higher solute concentration). This water creates turgor pressure in the sieve elements, which forces the sugars and fluids down the phloem tubes toward the sinks.

Hopefully this helps!

The frequency of a particular lethal recessive allele in a population is 0.02. Given this information, calculate the percentage
lakkis [162]

Answer:

<h2>approximately 4%</h2>

Explanation:

Given,  frequency of recessive allele (p )= 0.02

so, the frequency of dominant allele is (q )= 1-p

so q = 1-p

 p = 0.02

 q = 1- 0.02

 q = 0.98

Once we know p and q, which factor of the Hardy-Weinberg equation. we can calculate percentage of individuals who are carriers of lethal recessive allele.

so

Result : percentage of individuals who are carriers of the lethal recessive allele is  4%.
