Tpy6a [65]3 years ago

Answer:

Organisms get larger and develop into different stages of life >> Growth and development

Heal wounds, replace damaged cells >> Replace cells

Organisms make more of the species to keep them from going extinct >> Reproduction

Explanation:

Growth refers to the irreversible process by which organisms/tissues/cells increase in size and mass. Moreover, development can be defined as the progression from earlier to later maturation stages (e.g. fertilized ovule develops into a seed that will produce a mature tree). Cell replacement is a natural mechanism that occurs when cells become aged or in response to external/internal damage. During cell replacement, cells are produced from other cells by cell division. Finally, reproduction is a key biological process by which organisms (called parents) produce new genetically related organisms (i.e., offspring). According to the mode of transmission of genetic information, reproduction can be divided into sexual reproduction (offspring are different from parents) and asexual reproduction (offspring are the same as parents).

In a sample population of people, 36% have the recessive trait of "free" earlobes (q2). What is the frequency of the dominant al
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Explanation

Given that 36% are recessive in traits

100-36 = 64% for dominant traits considering a whole population to be 100%

P=dominant allele

q= recessive allele

P2= dominant genotype

q2= recessive genotype

according to hardyweinberg principle, p+q=1

64/100= 0.64 frequency for dominant traits or genotype, therefore

p2=0.64

then

P=√0.64

p= 0.8

Therefore, dominant allele frequency (p) for the population is 0.8

1.What is the difference between evaporation and transpiration? What role does each process play in the water cycle?
anygoal [31]
1. Evaporation is the escape of water molecules from their liquid phase to gas phase that go up into the atmosphere. Evaporation can occur anywhere where open liquid water is exposed to sunlight or any other source of energy. Transpiration, on the other hand, is the loss of water (by evaporation) from plants through the stomata. Evaporation and transpiration move water from the biosphere to the atmosphere.

2. Condensation is the return of water molecules from gaseous phase (vapor) back to liquid form. Precipitation, on the other hand, is the coming down of condensed water from the atmosphere to the earth (biosphere), which is a significant part of the water cycle.

3. Exchange pool is the pool from (or approximate amount) which water or other elements are shared (back and forth) between different spheres (such as biosphere, atmosphere, and hydrosphere) in a cycle. A reservoir on the other hand is analogous to a ‘container’ that holds large masses of water or other elements such as a lake and the atmosphere.

4. The answer is No. because, today’s waters, due to increased pollution from industrialization that spews a lot of pullutans into the atmphere, ae contamiated. The water that precipitates is tainted by gases such as sulphuric dioxide tha makes it acidic. The water also gets polluted by other pollutants in the atmpshre and biosphere and hence become a health risk to animals and humans that drink it.
