Answer:
The oxygen dissociation curve represents the percentage saturation of Hb with oxygen at different partial pressure of oxygen. The different partial pressures gives sigmoid shapes to the curve. When this curves shifts to right, it indicates low affinity or binding of oxygen by the Hb. it also indicates the unloading or releases of Oxygen by Hb molecules at condition of low pressure. e,g in the muscles during strenuous exercise.However, when the curve shifts to the left, this indicate high affinity for oxygen, great binding, at high partial pressure of oxygen.e,g in the lungs to take oxygen and releases CO2.
Therefore in this scenario, the statement -. <u>During strenuous exercise, the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve shifts to the right.</u> is correct. because oxygen is needed by the muscles therefore ,oxygen should be less binded by Hb, decrease affinity and easily unloaded to muscles.
<u>The statement </u>This rightward shift reflects an increase in the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen and favors loading of O2 into hemoglobin in the lungs is wrong.
As explained above the rightwards shift indicated low affinity of Hb for oxygen(unloading)and favours unloading at the muscles because during strenuous exercise the partial pressure of oxygen is very low(but that of CO2 high) in the muscles which favours low oxygen molecules binding by Hb, and easy release to respiring cells.
Explanation:
Answer:
Over the last century, the average temperature on the surface of the Earth has increased by about 1.0 degrees F. The greatest impact is the droughts that my state is constantly in. I believe that we had a great part in global climate change. How I think that we have is all the air pollution and not taking care of out earth the way we should. How I think that we can fix this is if we start powering our home with more solar. We can also reduce the amount of water that we use.
Explanation:
I will answer the question accordingly so that it help you under stand it better.
Question A.
During an extreme heat wave, plants with white flowers survive better.
What mechanism is in work here?
Answer: Mechanism of Natural Selection
will work here. This is called survival of the fittest which means the best color which fits in harsh conditions will dominate over others and will survive for longer time.
What is the effect on the gene pool?
Answer: The Frequency of white allele will increases
because white color is the best fit to extreme heat wave.
Question B.
A person uproots the five closest plants, which all happen to have white flowers.
What mechanism is in work here?
Answer: The mechanism of gene flow will work here as color of flower represents genotype of flower.
What is the effect on the gene pool?
Answer: The Frequency of white allele will increases because genotype of white flowers is increased.
DNA carries the genetic code and determine an organisms structure and functions.
