Round the number 14.587020 to 4 significant digits. a. 14.59 b. 14.58 c. 14.587 d. 15.00
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The correct option is a.

Step by step explanation:

The given number is

14.587020

In the given number two digits are on the left side of the decimal and 6 digits on the right side of the decimal.

We have to round the given number to four significant digits. The left side of the decimal will remains the same but the right side of the decimal will rounded to two decimal places.

Find third digit after decimal. If third digit is greater than 5, then add 1 in second digit. If third digit is less than or equal to 5, then second digit will remains same.

Since third digit is 7, therefore the second digit will become

8+1=9

14.587020\approx 14.59

Therefore option a is correct.

A genetic counselor is consulted by a young man who is worried about developing Huntington's disease, an inherited disorder caus
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer: B - Were your parents or grandparents ever diagnosed with Huntington's disease?

Explanation: In autosomal dominant disorder, affected offsprings must have an affected parent. Unaffected parents do not transmit the disease.

Since the disease is caused by a dominant allele, the young man would only be at risk of having Huntington's disease if his parents or grandparents had ever been diagnosed with the disease. He needs not to worry if his parents or grandparents had never been diagnosed with the disease.

His cousin who has been diagnosed with the disease could have inherited the allele from his other parent.

Volcanoes are often formed at plate boundaries. This is a convergent plate boundary. From the choices listed, pick the correct d
USPshnik [31]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

D) <em>The more dense oceanic plate subducts under the less dense continental plate. Subducted plate melts due to heat and friction. Melted plate, now magma, rises up to the surface.</em>

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>Volcanoes may be formed at convergent plate boundaries or at divergent plate boundaries. </u></em>
  • <em><u>When two tectonic plates collide, they form a convergent plate boundary. Normally, one of the converging plates that is the dense oceanic plate will move beneath the other, which is the less dense continental plate a process as subduction. </u></em>
  • <em><u>The friction between the plates in the subduction zone as a result of constant movement, melts the Earth's crust causing the underneath rocks to turn into magma.</u></em>
  • <em><u>The magma creates great pressure and rises towards the surface of the earth, and on reaching the surface it is called lava, and a volcano is formed.</u></em>

the size difference between most multicellular hosts and their pathogens results in which of the following evolutionary advantag
professor190 [17]

Pathogens can adapt more quickly than hosts since they have higher populations and faster generation periods.

Pathogens, of course, have the advantage in this evolutionary game because they can change far more quickly than the hosts—especially in long-lived animals like humans—due to their high population numbers and rapid generation rates. The relationship between surface area and complement activation shows how bacterial pathogenicity may be influenced by tiny size. The region of the microbial surface may also have a role in their action since other antimicrobial agents are focused there. A pathogen reacts with the host and creates infection, which results in the host being ill. Any dangerous microbial agent, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, fungi, and helminths, might be considered a pathogen.

Give two examples of organisms that differ greatly in their biotic potential
stiv31 [10]

The two examples of organisms that differ greatly in their biotic potentials are -

1. Humans and orangutans - These have low biotic potential as they produce only one or two off springs at a time. They have long gestation periods and limited time span to produce offsprings.

2. Bacteria and Scorpio- These organisms have high biotic potential as they can produce thousands of offspring at a time. They also have a short gestation  time, so throughout their life, they produce more offsprings.
