One day you were suddenly awakened by a ghostly shriek as if it were coming from

Answer:

THE NIGHTMARE

I woke up with a start, sweating profusely, my heart pounding erratically against my chest. My hands were shaking uncontrollably and I held my pillow close to my chest to clam my nerves. I had heard it. There was no doubt in it. A loud, high-pitched shriek, which sounded nothing like a human cry. It was surreal, making a shiver to creep up my spine. I twisted my hands together in nervousness, and murmured a prayer to god. The ghostly sound had resonated from beneath my bed. I had read way too many horror stories to not be scared by now. My throat felt dry and parched and I longed for a sip of water. But I had to go downstairs to fetch the jug. That meant I had to get down from my bed. And there was no way I would do that. Not now, when I was literally scared to death. I swallowed hard. My breathing had slowed down a bit but my heartbeat was still erratic. I perked up my ears and waited to see if the shrieks continued. I badly wanted to cover myself with my blanket but I was too scared to move an inch. I waited for about a minute and could hear no sound. This eased me a bit. Just when I mustered the courage to lie back down and go back to sleep, I felt a shadow whisk past me, sending the curtains flying. I brought my hands to my mouth to stop myself from crying out in terror. It was the silhouette of a girl, a tall, slender figure that I was sure by now was somewhere around me. I felt my eyes brimming with tears but I held my cries back. It was when the shadow reappeared, this time closer to me, near my nightstand. And before I could register what was happening or cry out loud for help, the figure advanced towards me, and all of a sudden, held me in a death grip. I felt myself being choked so tightly that no sound was escaping my mouth, black dots swimming in my vision. Soon enough, I plunged into darkness. After what felt like hours, I opened my eyes to be greeted with the golden rays of the sun streaming in through the window near my bed. I had a slightly blurry memory of yesterday night. I felt around my surroundings, and was met by relief when I could feel the blankets and my pillow beside me. Overjoyed by the fact that I was safe, and that it all had been just a silly nightmare, I thanked God and got out of bed to start my day.

In a diploid species of plant, the genes for plant height and fruit shape are syntenic and separated by 18 m.u. Allele D produce
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

C)Parental: 41% Dr, 41% dR; recombinant: 9% DR, 9% dr.

Explanation:

The notation Dr/dR for genotypes means that one homologous chromosome has the alleles Dr and the other homologous chromosome has the alleles dR.

The heterozygous plant  Dr/dR will produce 4 types of gametes: two identical to the chromosmes the individual has in its somatic cells (called parental), and two gametes which will be a mix of the alleles in the homologous chromosomes (called recombinant).

  • Dr: parental
  • dR: parental
  • DR: recombinant
  • dr: recombinant

To calculate the frequency of each type of gamete, we must use the formula:

Distance (map units) / 100 = frequency of recombination.

18 mu / 100 = 0.18.

The total frequency of recombination between the genes D and R is 0.18, but every time crossing over happens, two recombinant gametes are generated. Therefore, each recombinant gamete will have a frequency of 0.18/2=0.09 = 9%.

The frequency of parental gametes will be:

1 - frequency of recombinant gametes

1 - 0.18 = 0.82

But there are 2 parental gametes, so each of them will have a frequency of 0.82/2=0.41 = 41%.

In order to read a play properly, one must stage the play in one's own imagination.
leonid [27]
It isn't necessary to stage a play in one's own imagination for one to be able to read the play properly. For that reason, I would say that the answer is False. 

Actors don't necessarily carry out plays in their imagination but rather just act it out, so the answer indeed would be false in this case.
