Answer:

b. Craig is right and doesn't have to pay child support.

Explanation:

ABO blood group is controlled by three alleles. IA and IB are codominant to each other and both are dominant over i allele. IAIA and IAi produce A blood group. IBIB and IBi produce B blood group. ii produces O blood group.

Susan's son has O blood group so his genotype must be ii. He got one "i" allele from Susan and one "i" allele from his father. Craig's genotype is IAIA so there is no chance that he could have passed on "i" allele to Susan's son. Hence Craig is not his father and does not need to pay child support.

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

-Sensors in the brain detect a lack of oxygen.

-The muscles in his body need more energy and therefore more oxygen.

Explanation:

-Sensors in the brain detect a lack of oxygen.

-The muscles in his body need more energy and therefore more oxygen.

-The body has too little carbon dioxide to maintain function.

-The body is using carbon dioxide instead of oxygen to make energy.

-Blood pressure has decreased, so less blood is being pumped to the muscles.

<em>The correct answer would be that </em><em>sensors in the brain detect a lack of oxygen</em><em> and t</em><em>he muscles in the body of Jon need more energy and therefore, more oxygen.</em>

At sea level, the atmospheric pressure easily allow oxygen to permeate the cells of the lung and diffuse into the blood. At high altitudes, air pressure is generally lower and permeation/diffusion through the cells of the lung into the blood becomes difficult.

<u>Without adequate oxygen, the body cannot generate energy needed for physical activities of muscles. Consequently, the sensors in the brain detect a lack of oxygen and the body system reacts by breathing heavily to compensate for the oxygen shortage.</u>

What are the biggest advantages of natural gas as a fuel source?
GaryK [48]

Due to its cleaner combustion, natural gas is the most environmentally safe fossil fuel. Natural gas doesn't have as many toxic combustion byproducts as other fossil fuels.

  • Natural gas is adaptable. Starting and stopping a gas-fired power plant is substantially faster than one that burns coal.
  • Due to its flexibility, it complements renewable energy sources like solar and wind, which are only usable when the sun is out and the wind is blowing.
  • When burned to produce power, natural gas is the cleanest-burning hydrocarbon, releasing about half as much carbon dioxide (CO2) and only one-tenth as much air pollutants as coal.
  • By switching to natural gas from coal, there is a significant opportunity to cut CO2 emissions and air pollution in the near future.
  • Because Natural gas is now so widely accessible through LNG, it can assist nations in coping with short-term supply interruptions.
