Answer:

Additive; continuous; homozygous; homozygous.

Explanation:

The variation in weight in a population may be explained by the segregation of 10 genes that control weight in a simple additive genetic fashion, the distribution will be continuous from the lowest value homozygous for one allele at all 10 genes to the highest value homozygous for the other allele at all 10 genes.

Continuous phenotypic variation can be caused by many genes affecting a trait and/or environmental variation.

Answer:

the exchange rate and the trade deficit to decrease.

Explanation:

A deficit can be defined as an amount by which money, falls short of its expected or required value.

Generally, deficit in financial accounting is usually as a result of expense exceeding revenue or revenue falling below expenses at a specific period of time.

For instance, when liabilities exceeds assets or import exceeds export there would be a deficit in the financial account.

Generally, a deficit on the current account ultimately implies that the value of goods and services exported is lower than the value of goods and services being imported in a particular country.

In 2013, government began with a budget deficit and a trade deficit. During the year, the government changed its policy and is now running a budget surplus.

Hence, this change in policy will cause the exchange rate and the trade deficit to decrease if all other factors hold constant

Suppose that in some state the civilian, non-institutionalized adult population is 4 million, the labor force participation rate

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

8.33%

Explanation:

The computation of the unemployment rate is shown below;

Before computing it, first we have to determine the labor force which is

As we know that

Labor force participation rate = Labor force ÷ Total non-institutionalized adult population

75% = Labor force ÷ 4,000,000

So, the labor force is

= 4,0000,000 × 0.75

= 3,000,000

Now unemployment rate is

= Unemployed people ÷ Labor force

= 250,000 ÷ 3,000,000

= 8.33%

Virty [35]

Answer:

1. What is the standard quantity of kilograms of plastic (SQ) that is allowed to make 3,400 helmets?

3,400 helmets x 064 kgs per helmet = 2,176 kgs

2. What is the standard materials cost allowed (SQ × SP) to make 3,400 helmets?

2,176 kgs x $7 per kg = $15,232

3. What is the materials spending variance?

$15,484 - $15,232 = $252 unfavorable (because total expenditures on materials were higher than budgeted)

4. What is the materials price variance and the materials quantity variance?

materials price variance = [($15,484/2,346) - $7] x 2,346 = -$938 favorable (the purchase price per kg was lower than budgeted)

materials quantity variance = (2,346 - 2,176) x $7 = $1,190 unfavorable
