Hatshy [7]

<h3>Answer;</h3>

Rock

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Rock is a naturally occurring solid mixture of one or more minerals or organic matter.
Rock is a solid mixture of crystals of one or more minerals, or organic matter.
Rocks are classified by how they are formed, their composition, and texture. Rock has been an important natural resource as long as humans have existed.
The rock cycle is the series of processes in which a rock type changes from one type to another.

Which factor explains that in general, temperate and polar regions have less biodiversity than tropical regions

frutty [35]

Answer:

Follows are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

The following are the two considerations demonstrating that there would be less biodiversity than the tropical areas in the Mediterranean climate as well as polar areas.

The first reason is all tropical areas experience drastic temperature variation.
The second reason is early in the earth's history, the northern latitudes are inhabited.

Q6.7. During many epidemics, health-care professionals emphasize the importance of

Serga [27]

During many epidemics, healthcare professionals emphasize the importance of community mitigation strategies, such as wearing masks, frequent hand-washing, and social distancing because these strategies help reduce transmission even when drug-based treatments and vaccines are unavailable.

It is of vital importance in cases of epidemics to implement strategies such as:

Hand-washing
Wearing masks
Social distancing

in order to better protect our communities and ourselves.

Frequent hand-washing serves to eliminate the presence of a pathogen from the surface of your hands, reducing the risks that it will find entry into your organism or land on a surface with which others will come into contact. Should you or someone else contract the pathogen anyways, wearing a mask can help to reduce or deny the possibility of transmitting the disease.

Finally, should both previous measures fail, meaning that the virus or pathogen has infected an individual and penetrated the masks, social distancing can act as a final barrier that the pathogen will rarely be able to surpass, given that most pathogens cannot remain airborne over large distances.

For these reasons, healthcare professionals emphasize the importance of these strategies because they help reduce transmission until vaccines or drug-based treatments become available and herd immunity can be reached.

What are the punnet squares really used for and do they work

podryga [215]

Punnett squares are used to find out the possible genotypes of the next generation after a cross and thus find the phenotype too according to the predicted genotypes.

For example, parents with genotypes of Rr and rr cross together, we can use the punnett square to list out the possible genotypes of their children which are Rr and rr.

You can never predict the exact genotypes of the next child but you can find out the possibility if they carry a certain trait. All the genotypes of the child are in random but you at least know what phenotypes they'll have.

Please help with this

Tanya [424]

Test One: All short fur
Phenotype ratio: 4:0
Test Two: three short fur and one long fur
Phenotype ratio: 3:1
Test Three: all long fur
Phenotype ratio: 4:0
Genotypes for fur length dominant
G: FF, and Ff (These are the genotypes for short fur, short fur is a dominant gene.
P: Short fur is dominant
Genotypes and phenotypes for fur length recessive
G: ff
P: Long fur is recessive
If you have a hamster with short fur, the possible genotypes the hamster could have is FF, and Ff
If you have a hamster with long fur, the possible genotype is ff.
