Answer:

Tall offsprings: 13/25

Short offsprings: 12/25

Explanation:

According to this question, a cross between a tall pea plant and a short pea plant gives rise to the following:

13 tall pea offsprings

12 short pea offsprings

This means that a total of (13 + 12) = 25 offsprings were produced by this cross. To get the ratio of each phenotype to the total number of offspring, we say the number of each phenotype (tall or short) / total offspring the produced.

That is;

Tall offsprings: 13/25

Short offsprings: 12/25

In percentage, this can be represented as:

Tall offsprings: 13/25 × 100 = 52%

Short offsprings: 12/25 × 100 = 48%

Answer:

C- Impair the ability to consider the consequences of acting impulsively

Explanation:

Alcohol consumption leads to an increase in the level of dopamine released in the brain, thus increasing pleasure. This increase in levels of dopamine can lead to impairment in reasoning and minor memory loss. With these factors, impulsive actions are more likely to occur. Aggressive behavior might eventually settle in, when euphoria eventually becomes depression.

What would most likely happen to a unicellular organism if it was exposed to a hypotonic solution for an extended period of time
e-lub [12.9K]
The answer is that a unicellular organism would swell and burst.

In a hypotonic solution <span>the </span>water concentration<span> of the cell's cytoplasm is </span>lower<span> then that of the hypotonic solution. If unicellular organism is exposed to a hypotonic solution, the water from the solution will enter the organism by the process called osmosis. The aim is to balance water concentration on the inside and outside of the organism. But, that water entering the cytoplasm of the cell will make pressure on the cell membrane. If the </span><span>excess water cannot be removed from the organism, it will swell and burst.</span>
