Some people worry that the increasing number of cell phones will cause cancer because of the energy of the radio waves they emit
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Cell phones emit radiofrequency energy, a form of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation, which can be absorbed by tissues close to the phone. The amount of radiofrequency energy a person is exposed to depends on the frequency of the signal and the amount of time they spend on the phone. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), and the American Cancer Society (ACS) all agree that more research is needed to determine the possible health effects of cell phone use. So far, there is no scientific evidence that proves that cell phone use causes cancer. Some studies have suggested a possible link between cell phone use and cancer, but more research is needed to confirm these results. The ACS does not recommend limiting cell phone use because the risk of cancer is still unknown.

Hope this helps!

A woman has blood type a mm. her child has blood type ab mn. the blood types of the potential fathers are given below.
goldfiish [28.3K]
The mother has the alleles A and M, given that her blood type is A MM. Since the child has blood type AB MN, then the child has the alleles A, B, M, N. However, the alleles B and N, cannot have come from his/her mother and must have come from the father. Therefore, we are looking for a father with the alleles B and N. Based on this conclusion, the child's father is either Tom (with blood type AB MN) or Bill (with blood type B MN).
