Why do you think P-waves and S-waves are also called body waves? Explain..

Biology

Liula [17]3 years ago

Body waves are two types: compressional or primary (P) waves and shear or secondary (S) waves. P- and S- waves are called “body waves” because they can travel through the interior of a body such as Earth’s inner layers, from the focus of an earthquake to distant points on the surface.

What was a conclusion that Mendel drew from the F2 generation of this cross?
Ber [7]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

That parental traits that were not observed in the F1 reappeared in the F2.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Mendel accounted for the observation that traits which had disappeared in the F1 generation reappeared in the F2 generation by proposing that traits can be dominant or recessive, and the recessive traits were obscured by the dominant ones in the F1.
  • <em>I</em><u><em>t was important that Mendel examined not just the F1 generation in his breeding experiments, but the F2 generation as well, because parental traits that were not observed in the F1 reappeared in the F2.</em></u>

In the family tree below, people with the recessive trait of attached earlobes are shaded gray
serious [3.7K]
<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>

In the family tree below, people with the recessive trait of attached earlobes are shaded gray.

What must be true about the person labeled "A"?

A. It is a male with at least one dominant allele.

B. It is a male with two dominant alleles.

C. It is a female with at least one dominant allele.

D. It is a female with two dominant alleles.

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

Its a male with atleast one dominant allele.

Option A.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The gene for the attached earlobe is recessive while the gene for the free earlobes is dominant. In the phylogenetic tree, we can see that both the father and mother aren't having attached earlobes. So both of them are having atleast one dominant allele which makes them have free earlobe.

In the F1 offsprings, one of the female and a male is having free earlobes. So both of them have atleast one dominant allele. The 2nd female is having an attached earlobe. So both the recessive allele have come form one parent each. So both of them are heterozygous.

Thus, the male marked as A atleast have one dominant allele. He can be a homozygous dominant, but the probability is 25%.
