Answer:

E; Dermis

Explanation:

Skin and its underlying tissue can be affected by excessive pressure. Stretch mark results when the dermis is stretched beyond its limits of elasticity, as the skin stretches to accommodate the excess pressure. Stretch marks usually accompany rapid weight gain during puberty and pregnancy.

Answer:this region of the integumentary system is called the dermis. The correct option is E.

4. Suppose that a dominant allele (P) codes for a polka-dot tail and a recessive allele (p) codes for a solid colored tail. If t
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The correct answer would be:

  • Genotype ratio: 1 (PP) : 2 (Pp) : 1 (pp)
  • Phenotypic ratio: 3 (polka-dot tails) : solid colored tail

The genotype of both parents is Pp (heterozygous).

Thus, both the parent would produce two types of gametes which are P and p.

The cross would result in the production of offspring with three types of genotype PP, Pp, and pp in 1:2:1.

Offspring with PP and Pp will have a polka-dotted tail as it is the dominant trait.

Thus, the phenotype ratio would be 3 (polka-dotted tail) : 1 (solid colored tail).

siniylev [52]

all the thymine pairs with adenine, therefore there is the same number of adenine and thymine bases and the same percentage

so we have 28%thymine and 28% adenine

100-28-28=44% left

this 44% is guanine and cytosine. All of the guanine pairs with cytosine and all of the cytosine pairs with guanine so we have 44/2=22% cytosine and guanine

composition:

28%adenine

28%thymine

22%guanine

22%cytosine

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Planet B is expected to be cooler than Planet A.

Explanation:

In the given case, planet A is closer to the star than planet B. Their atmospheric conditions and mass is same so their surface temperature will depend on their distance from the star. Since planet A is closer, it will receive more radiation from the star. In turn it will be hotter to re-radiate that energy back to space. Hence, average surface temperature of planet B will be lower than planet A.
