Explain why scientific knowledge may be open to change

Biology

Scientific knowledge may be open to change because our human knowledge is limited. Discoveries are made all the time opening up explanations to things that contradict what we previously thought to be true. Because of this, we have come to be open to change scientific knowledge in case new information is discovered that can shed light on the unknown.

Take our solar system for example. We know our solar system to be heliocentric, meaning that our sun is the center of it. Used to, the geocentric model of our solar system was widely accepted that the Earth was the center of the solar system.

Even the theory that Earth used to be flat. Once we had technology to take pictures from space and prove for sure that the earth is round, some people believed that it was flat.

I hope this helped! Have an amazing day :)

Genotypes usually involve some combination of dominant and recessive alleles. What is the most common inheritance pattern?​
mylen [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D) six dominant and two recessive.

Explanation:

The most common genetic inheritance pattern involves cross between heterozygous recessive parents which means it has one allele of each character in every parent (suppose Tt).

Cross between these parents provide these offspring; TT, Tt, Tt, and tt which exhibit 3:1 ration which can also be mention as 6:2 which means 6 out of the 8 has dominant (homozygous or heterozygous) and 2 out of 8 offsprings are recessive alleles.

Thus, the correct answer is option D) six dominant and two recessive.

Systolic blood pressure:_____________ a) is the higher number of a blood pressure reading. b) is the lower number of a blood pre
Alik [6]

Answer:

is the higher number of a blood pressure reading.

Explanation: systolic blood pressure is the higher number of a blood pressure reading and its measure in millimeter of mercury.

Systolic pressure is the amount of pressure in the arteries when contraction takes place in heart. Diastolic pressure is the pressure the heart when it relaxes. It is the lower number of blood pressure reading

When the systolic pressure is >120mm Hg and diastolic is less than 80mm Hg it is normal

120-129mm Hg and diastolic less than 80mm Hg it high and such person needs a regular medical check up

But when systolic 129-139 mmHg

and diastolic is 90mm Hg or above it means the individual is having hypertension stage 1

Above 140mm Hg is hypertension stage 2 and it is the most severe stage. It means the person is hypertensive and medical attention needs to be seek for necessary treatment as this could lead to death of such individual if not well managed.
