Beriberi is a disease that results from a dietary lack of thiamine, the vitamin that serves as the precursor for thiamine pyroph

osphate (TPP). There are two metabolites that accumulate in individuals with beriberi, especially after ingestion of glucose. Which metabolites accumulate and why?

Answer:

Zero (0)

Explanation:

According to the given information the genotype of the woman with blood type "AB" would by I^AI^B. The genotype of the man with blood type O would be "ii". Here, the alleles I^A and I^B are dominant over the allele "i".

A cross between parents with genotype I^AI^B and ii would give 50% of children with I^Ai genotype and 50% of children with I^Bi genotype. The children with "I^Ai genotype" would have blood type "A" and the children with I^Bi genotype would have blood type "B". This couple is never likely to have any child with blood type "O" since the mother does not carry allele "i".

Cross: I^AI^B x ii = 1/2 I^Ai : 1/2 I^Bi

A biologist discovered a young, four-legged animal. The animal had lungs, seemed to fertilize internally, and its outer surface
navik [9.2K]
The answer should be reptiles!

The characteristics of reptiles are:

1. They are four-legged

2. They have an outer covering of scales

3. They breathe with the aid of lungs

4. Although most reptiles lay eggs, some also give birth to live young (fertilise internally)!

I hope this helps! :)

Waters ____ makes it excellent solvent for salts like sodium chloride as well as other substances required by cells to carry out
valentinak56 [21]

The right answer is polarity.

In chemistry, polarity is a characteristic describing the distribution of negative and positive charges in a dipole. The polarity of a bond or a molecule is due to the difference in electronegativity between the chemical elements that compose it, the differences in charge that it induces, and to their distribution in space. The more the charges are distributed asymmetrically, the more a bond or molecule will be polar, and conversely, if the charges are distributed in a completely symmetrical manner, it will be apolar, that is to say non-polar.

Polarity and its consequences (van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonding) affect a number of physical characteristics (surface tension, melting point, boiling point, solubility) or chemical (reactivity).

Many very common molecules are polar, such as sucrose, a common form of sugar. The sugars, in general, have many oxygen-hydrogen bonds (hydroxyl group -OH) and are generally very polar. Water is another example of a polar molecule, which allows polar molecules to be generally soluble in water. Two polar substances are very soluble between them as well as between two apolar molecules thanks to Van der Waals interactions.

By using a genetic diagram or a punnett square, we can show the the result of a cross between RR and rr.
The result of the genotypes should all be Rr.
This means all their offsprings should have the dominant trait being expressed.
Therefore, the percentage to this should be 100%.
The picture above is an example of using a punnett square finding the possible genotypes of the offsprings.
