What happens to the CO2 released by the body?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

When CO2 is breathed into the lungs, it dissolves in the water there, diffuses across the alveolar-capillary membrane, and enters the bloodstream. As it combines with water, it forms carbonic acid, making the blood acidic. So CO2 in the bloodstream lowers the blood pH.

Why is it difficult to observe individual chromosomes with a light microscope during interphase?
asambeis [7]

Answer:

They have uncoiled to form long, thin strands.

Explanation:

Chromosomes are present in cell nucleus and consist of chromatin. Genes are present in linear order on chromosomes.  The chromosomes become visible under the microscope as distinct structures during cell division. When cells are not dividing, the chromosomes decondense to loose their individuality and make the mass of chromatin.  

Chromatin is complex of DNA and packing proteins. As the cells enter the prophase stage of cell division, condensation of chromatin occurs and individual chromosomes become visible under microscope. Before that (during interphase), chromosomes are not visible as they are present in decondensed form.

Do you think Peacocks would be in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium? Why or why not?
Slav-nsk [51]

Peacocks would not be in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium

Explanation:

This can be justified by the mating patterns of the female peacocks. They do not choose their mates randomly but look out specifically for bright attractive plumage in their male partners and then select them.

Hardy-Weinberg's Equilibrium of evolution mechanism was based on facts like random mating, no natural selection,  mutation, absence of gene flow, and infinite population size.

They stated that organisms mate randomly with each other without any specific or a particular preference in the phenotypes of their opposite mates
