How does frost action cause weathering

Biology
1 answer:
Evgesh-ka [11]3 years ago

<span>Weathering is a process of braking down of rocks into smaller and fine particles. There a lot of different things that cause weathering and some of them are physical weathering and chemical weathering. Frost action is a physical weathering process, it is one of the most important weathering process and it takes place in cold climate conditions. Frost action is caused by repeated actions of freezing an thawing, when a rock is continuously frozen the cracks in the rock increase or become bigger and bigger which then leads to the rock or rocks breaking down into smaller and smaller peaces therefore causing weathering. This weathering process only occurs below and above the temperature of 32 degrees F(0 degrees calcius).</span>

If we increased the enzymes, our food would break down too fast to process it. If there were no enzymes, the food wouldn't break down. Enzymes are so important, that without them in our saliva, we wouldn't be able to swallow or chew our food.

In humans, the eye color and hair color genes are located on different chromosomes. Brown eyes (B) are dominant to blue (b), and
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Man's genotype: Bbdd

Woman's genotype: bbDd

First child's genotype: Bbdd

Second child's genotype: bbDd

Explanation:

This is a dihybrid cross involving two genes; one coding for eye color and the other for hair color in humans. The allele for brown eye (B) is dominant over the allele for blue eyes (b) in the first gene while the allele for dark hair (D) is dominant over the allele for red hair (d) in the second gene.

According to the question, A man with brown eyes and red hair will possibly possess genotypes: BBdd or Bbdd while a woman with blue eyes and dark hair will possibly have genotype: bbDD or bbDd. Considering the fact that they produced children with recessive traits for both gene (blue eyes and red hair), it means that they are heterozygous for their dominant trait. This means that the ideal genotype for the man is Bbdd since he will produce gametes containing B and b alleles for the first gene while the ideal genotype for the woman is bbDd since it will produce gametes with D and d allele for the second gene.

Hence, a child with brown eyes and red hair will possess genotype: Bbdd since he/she cannot receive two dominant alleles for the first gene from both parents. A child with blue eyes and dark hair will have genotype: bbDd since he/she cannot receive two dominant alleles of the second gene from both parents.
