Give three instantaneous scale (time) examples of Earth's systems, two long-term scale (time) examples of Earth's sytems, and th
Goshia [24]

The Earth comprises many spheres of subsystems, which associate with each other to develop a composite and spontaneously changing system of the Earth. The processes taking place in the system of the Earth occurs on spatial scales changing from fractions of millimeters to thousands of kilometers, and on time scales, which varies from milliseconds to billions of years.  

The examples of instantaneous scales are a rotation of the Earth, breathing, an earthquake.  

The examples of long-term scales are making coal and plate tectonics.  

The system of the Earth is featured by various overlapping cycles in which matter is recycled again and again. The cycles involve interactions between multiple spheres and systems. The examples of cycles are rock cycle, day and night, and seasons.  

Volcanoes discharge a huge concentration of particulate matter into the atmosphere. These particles function as nuclei for the development of droplets of water (hydrosphere). The rainfall, that is, hydrosphere usually upsurges after an eruption, initiating growth of the plant (biosphere). Thus, volcanoes and volcanic activities are a good illustration of system interactions.

Reptile [31]

Dislocations is a musculoskeletal injury in which there is a partial or temporary separation of the bone ends as well as partial tearing of the supporting ligaments .

4 types of musculoskeletal injuries includes repetitive strain injuries (RSIs), repetitive motion injuries, cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs), work-related upper limb disorders (WRULDs).

Most common type of musculoskeletal injury is Muscle Strains, back pain, and arthritis . Muscle strains can happen due to improper technique of lifting heavy objects, lifting too much weight at one time, and repetitive movements. The key symptoms of a muscle strain are sudden pain that worsens while contracting the muscle, swelling and bruising, loss of strength and range of motion. People often report the sensation of pain as the feeling of being "stabbed." When muscle is initially injured, significant inflammation and swelling occurs.

Complete the graphic organizer to summarize exceptions to Mendels principles
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

<em>Exceptions to Mendel's principles: </em>

Does exceptions mean that Mendel was "wrong"? The answer is "NO". It means that we know more today about diseases, genes, and heredity than compared to what he expalined 150 years ago. Here I have summerized the exceptions with examples:

<em>Incomplete dominance</em>: When an organism is heterozygous for a trait and both genes are expressed but not completely.

<em>Example</em><em>:</em> SnapDragon Flowers

<em>Codominance</em>: When 2 different alleles are present and both alleles are expressed.

<em>Example</em>: Black Feathers + Whites feathers --> Black and white speckled feathers

<em>Multiple alleles</em>: Three or more alternative forms of a gene (alleles) that can occupy the same locus.

Example: Bloodtype

<em>Polygenic traits</em>: more than one gene controls a particular phenotype

Example: human height, Hair color, weight, and eye, hair and skin color.
