Answer:

The answer is letter D

Explanation:

<em>The set point is the weight  range in which your body is programmed to function optimally. Set point theory affirms that an indivual's body will fight to mantain that weight range. Evebody is biologically and genetically determined to weigh within a certain weight range. Set points will vary for each individual person. </em>

<em>Scientists estimate that the average person has a set point range about ten to twenty pound rage at which your body will be comfortable and not resist attempts to change.</em>

The lungs remain inflated because ___________.a. intrapleural pressure is exactly equal to atmospheric pressure b. intrapleural
kkurt [141]

Answer:

Option C,  Intrapleural pressure is less than intrapulmonary pressure

Explanation:

During inspiration, the air enters the lungs due to lower pressure in the intrapulmonary or intra-alveolar  than the atmospheric pressure. During quite respiration, the intrapulmonary pressure reduces to a pressure that is 3 mm Hg lower than that of atmospheric pressure. During quiet expiration, the intrapulmonary pressure rises up to a pressure that is 3 mm Hg higher than that of atmospheric pressure. This leads to lack of air in the intrapleural space thereby producing intrapleural pressure which is lesser than that of intrapulmonary pressure.  

This difference in pressure (i.e higher pressure with in the lungs than the atmosphere)  causes lungs to remain attached to the chest wall and hence looks inflated.  

Hence, option C is correct

Consider that a certain gene is a maternal effect gene and that the allele for dark brown pigment is incompletely dominant to th
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

BB - Dark brown color - (1/4)

Bb - light tan (due to incomplete dominance) - (2/4 or 1/2)

bb - white color - (1/4)

Explanation:

Let the allele for dark brown pigment be represented by "B"

And the let allele for white (no pigment) be represented by "b"

Due to incomplete dominance, the phenotype of heterozygous species would be "light tan"

Genotype of heterozygous female - Bb

Genotype of heterozygous male - Bb

Bb * Bb

BB, Bb, Bb, bb

BB - Dark brown color - (1/4)

Bb - light tan (due to incomplete dominance) - (2/4 or 1/2)

bb - white color - (1/4)

Which of the following is NOT a benefit of fertilizer?
just olya [345]

Answer:

Allows farmers to grow plants using very little soil

Explanation:

Fertilizer helps us to return the nutrients to the soil for new or current plants to grow. These nutrients were spent by the plants that were there or the soil was not that rich with nutrients, to begin with. It will not replace soil and growing plants without soil is called hydroponics. Fertilizer is very useful in agriculture currently and most likely will continue to be a good way to grow plants for a while.
