Answer:

Administering pure oxygen is a more effective treatment to carbon monoxide poisoning than just placing the victim outside.

Explanation:

It takes a large amount of oxygen to get rid of carbon monoxide from the body, and there is only 20.95% of oxygen in air. Therefore, 100% pure oxygen is required to be administered for a few hours before the carbon monoxide can be removed from the bloodstream.

Carbon Monoxide gets attached to the hemoglobin in the blood, but does not benefit the body in any way.

Electrons are extremely small compared to all of the other parts of the atom. The mass of an electron is almost 1,000 times smaller than the mass of a proton.

Briefly explain why only chromosomes of a homologous pair can have their alleles referred toas homozygous or heterozygous
tatuchka [14]

This is due to the fact that only homologous chromosomes would have identical genes located at identical sites on those chromosomes. Otherwise, there would be no connection between the alleles of various genes.

Although the genes and loci of the two members of the homologous pair are similar, the alleles may vary.For instance, both allele possess the genes responsible for the attribute of eye colour. While the one has alleles for the blue-eye trait, other has alleles for the brown-eye trait. The homologous chromosomes are said to be heterozygous in this instance since the alleles are different.

On the other hand, when both alleles for a gene that codes for the blue-eye phenotype are present, it is said to be homozygous.
