Answer:

4 percent (4%)

Explanation:

A single crossover occurs between two (non-sister) chromatids belonging to homologous chromosomes. In this case, 16 percent of the meioses have a single crossover, thereby it will produce 8 percent of the chromosomes with the original (parental) combination in the progeny and the remaining 8 percent should be recombinants. From this result, it is reasonable to conclude that half of these recombinants should be 'Br' (and the other remaining 4 percent should be recombinants 'bR'), and therefore the answer is 4 percent (4%).

Answer:

Thermal and radiant

Explanation:

Thermal energy is energy in the form of heat (such as fire). Light energy is a form of radiant energy. When a match is struck it creates fire which creates heat (thermal energy) and light (radiant energy) so the two types of energy that the match is transformed into are thermal and radiant.

In the u.s., about what percentage of all food expenditures is now accounted for by meals eaten out?
quester [9]
<span>Eating away from home is playing an increasing large role in the diet and the household budgets of American families. Back in 1970 approximately 26 percent of all food spending was on food away from home; by 2012, that amount had risen to 43 percent. The increase can be attributed to a greater percentage of women employed outside the home, more two-earner households with the resulting higher incomes, as well as more affordable and convenient fast food outlets. The downfall of this statistic is the contribution all that fast food makes to higher levels of obesity and lower dietary nutritional quality.</span>
