Risks in life are often misaligned with our perceptions of these risks. Describe why we fear flying in a plane, nuclear power pl
asambeis [7]

Answer:

We fear flying in a plane, nuclear power plants or being struck by lightning more because our risk perception isn't rational. We assess risks using a mixture of cognitive skills (weighing the evidence, using reasoning and logic to reach conclusions) and emotional appraisals. In this case, we believe that overheating or lack of exercise is something we can control. We believe we can feel the process taking place and we can react in time. We fear all the situations that we cannot control.

Classify the following as A = genotype B = phenotype Use the letter A for genotype and the letter B for phenotype
Andrej [43]
The options aren’t there but here’s a few facts.
Genotypes are the alleles present in order to form a phenotype. A phenotype is the traits present based on the genotype or genetic code. For example, if you have two dominant alleles (which is a genotype)... let’s say C (as in the dominant allele stands for curly hair) Then if the genotype was CC or Cc the phenotype would be curly hair. If the genotype was cc than the phenotype would be straight hair.

Explain how salinity changes in sea water
timofeeve [1]
Temperature and density share an inverse relationship. As temperature increases, the space between water molecules increases—also known as density, which therefore decreases. If the temperature of water decreases its density increases, but only to a point. At a temperature of 4°C pure water reaches its maximum or peak density, cooled further it expands and becomes less dense than the surrounding water which is why when water freezes at 0°C it floats.

Salinity and density share a positive relationship. As density increases, the amount of salts in the water—also known as salinity, increases. Various events can contribute to change in the density of seawater.

Salinity can decrease from the melting of polar ice or increase from the freezing of polar ice. Evaporation increases salinity and density while the addition of freshwater decreases salinity and density.
