In practice it is enough to simply angle the thermometer towards the direction of the ear canal. More specifically you are trying to target the direction of the tympanic membrane located in the middle ear (one of the parts of the ear; the other parts being outer and inner)

Some maneuvers, although not completely necessary, may include pulling the ear lobe upwards and outwards for babies. This is to straighten the ear canal and is more often done when using otoscopes. For adults, we pull the ear downward and outward.

8. In a population of beetles, there is a gene for color with two codominant alleles. The allele R leads to red beetles and the
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

The genotypic frequency = 1:1

The phenotypic frequency = 1:1

Explanation:

Given that:

The allele → R = Red beetles

The allele → B = Blue beetles

Since the gene color shows a codominant allele

The Red Beetle = RR

The blue beetles will be = BB

The heterozygous beetle will be = RB

∴

The punnet square showing the crossing of RB × RR is:

                R                   B

R                RR               RB

R                RR               RB

The result shows that we have two red beetles and two heterozygous beetles.

Hence;

The genotypic frequency = 1:1

The phenotypic frequency = 1:1
