Biology

Answer:

Explanation:

The closed metal container will get distorted or compressed due to a combination of two reasons:

1.<em> contraction of the metal container as a result of a reduction in its temperature.</em>

2. <em>a reduction in the pressure inside the container caused by a sudden drop in the temperature of the water inside it. </em>

The tap water causes a reduction in the temperature of both the container and the water inside it. An increase in temperature causes metal to expand and a reduction in temperature causes it to contract. Also, water takes less space than steam. Therefore, a reduction in the temperature of the hot water causes a reduction in the pressure inside the container relative to the outside. This causes the metal container to be compressed.

Most successful parasites, such as a cat flea, weaken their host but do not kill it. Why is killing its host usually disadvantag
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is - If a parasite kills its host, it will then have to find a new host in order to survive.

Explanation:

Parasites are organisms that depend on other organisms for their food and energy in order to survive. The organism that they depend on is called their host. In this only parasites get benefitted while hosts are harmed.

Although parasites harm their hosts, parasites tend to not kill the host as its best for them so they do not have to find another host and again establish control on the host's body and body functions, for their survival.

bija089 [108]

Answer:

1/64 = 0.015625

Explanation:

Genotype of parents:  aa bb Cc Dd Ee x aa Bb Cc dd Ee

To calculate the frequency of the child with desired genotype, individual frequency of desired genotype can be calculated followed by application of product rule.

aa x aa = All aa

bb x Bb= 1/2 bb: 1/2 Bb

Cc x Cc= 1/4 CC: 1/2 Cc : 1/4 cc

Dd x dd = 1/2 Dd: 1/2 dd

Ee x Ee= 1/4 EE: 1/2 Ee: 1/4 ee

Expected frequency of the child with desired genotype= 1 aa x 1/2 bb x 1/4 cc x 1/2 dd x 1/4 ee = 1/2 x 1/4 x 1/2 x 1/4 = 1/64 = 0.015625
