People who have Tay-Sachs disease cannot metabolize some lipids effectively. Tay-Sachs is a recessive disorder. A student used a

Punnet Square to determine the probability of offspring inheriting the disease. The results from a Punnet Square are 25% TT, 50% Tt, and 25% tt.
Which conclusion can be made regarding the phenotype of the parents based on these results?

The parents must be TT, Tt

The parents must be Tt, tt

The parents must be TT, tt

The parents must be Tt, Tt

Answer:

The parents must be Tt, Tt

Explanation:

Based on these results, we can conclude that each of the parents will have one dominant (T) and one recessive allele (t). We can prove this by drawing the Punnett square:

     T      t

T    TT   Tt

t     Tt     tt

We can see that the offspring will have the Tt genotype in two cases, the TT genotype in one case, and the tt genotype in one case, as well. Now we need to do some basic math. Two out of four is 50% (Tt - 50%), and one out of four is 25% (TT - 25%, tt - 25%).

This means that the parents must be Tt, Tt.

Answer:

pyroclastic flow is a fast moving current of hot gas and volcanic matter that flows along the ground away from a volcano at high velocities.

Hotspot is volcanic regions thought to be fed by underlying mantle that is anomalously hot compared with the surrounding mantle

caldera-a large volcanic crater, especially one formed by a major eruption leading to the collapse of the mouth of the volcano.

tephra-rock fragments and particles ejected by a volcanic eruption

epicenter-the central point of something, typically a difficult or unpleasant situation

fault-an extended break in a body of rock, marked by the relative displacement and discontinuity of strata on either side of a particular surface

surface waves- mechanical wave that propagates along the interface between differing media

body waves-A body wave is a seismic wave that moves through the interior of the earth, as opposed to surface waves that travel near the earth's surface. P and S waves are body waves.

TEA [102]

The question is incomplete as it misses the options which are:

Cancer cells do not exhibit density dependent inhibition

Cancer cells do not require growth factors

Cancer cells do not exhibit anchorage dependence

Cancer cells ignore typical cell cycle checkpoints

Answer:

The correct answer will be option- Cancer cells do not exhibit anchorage dependence

Explanation:

A cell becomes tumour forming cell or cancerous cell when the cell undergoes some mutation in the DNA which causes uncontrolled cell division without differentiation.

As a result of the mutation, these cancerous cells show various properties which are present in the normal cells nut absent in cancerous cells like the cancerous cells lack the anchorage dependence.

Anchorage dependence is the property of the cells or the group of cells in which the cells maintain their adherence to the other layer of cells to communicate with each other.

Thus, the cancerous cells lack the anchorage dependence

Based on the Resource Use and Conservation Virtual Lab, Which tactic can do the most to keep the water debt less than the water
Viefleur [7K]

Answer: D. Replacing thermal power plants.

Explanation:

Thermal Power Stations are some of the biggest users of water in the world because water is integral to producing electricity in them. These stations burn fossil fuels like coal which then vaporizes water so that it becomes steam which then drives turbines that produce electricity.

Water is also used for cooling high temperatures produced.

If these thermal stations are replaced with something that uses less water, it will go a long way in keeping the water debt less than the water supply.
