Answer:

C is the correct option. Storage of carbohydrates is not a function of the skeletal system.

Explanation:

Option A is correct because the skeletal system has parts like the red bone marrow in which red blood cells and white blood cells are produced.

Option B is correct because the bones store minerals like calcium and phosphorus.

Option D is correct because the major function of the skeletal system is to provide support and protect the vital organs of the body.

The skeletal system is not involved in storing carbohydrates. Hence, all statements are true except for statement C.

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

The angle of incoming solar radiation influences seasonal temperatures of locations at different latitudes. ... At higher latitudes, the angle of solar radiation is smaller, causing energy to be spread over a larger area of the surface and cooler temperatures.

A plant has the genotype AAbbCcDDEeff, where each letter represents a different gene. This plant is crossed with another whose g
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

The fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele is 1024/4096 = 0.25 A-BbccDdE-Ff = 25%

Explanation:

You can calculate the fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele by making the punnet square for each gene and then multipling the phenotypic proportions, like this:

Cross) AAbbCcDDEeff     x      AaBBCcddEEFF

Cross For each gene by separately:

  • Parental )        AA    x    Aa

       Gametes)  A    A         A    a

        F1)             2/4 AA  

                          2/4 Aa

  • Parental )        bb    x    BB

         Gametes)  b    b         B   b

          F1)                   4/4 Bb

  • Parental )        Cc    x    Cc

        Gametes)  C    c         C    c

         F1)             1/4 CC

                           2/4 Cc

                            1/4 cc

  • Parental )        DD    x    dd

       Gametes)  D    D          d    d

        F1)             4/4 Dd

  • Parental )        Ee    x    EE

        Gametes)     E     e      E     E

         F1)             2/4 Ee

                           2/4 EE

  • Parental )        ff    x    FF

         Gametes)     f     f      F     F

          F1)             4/4 Ff

So, fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele is:

4/4 A-  x  4/4 Bb   x   1/4 cc   x   4/4 Dd   x  4/4 E-   x   4/4 Ff =  

1024/4096 = 0.25 A-BbccDdE-Ff =25%
