Answer:

One of the central conclusions Mendel reached after studying and breeding multiple generations of pea plants was the idea that "[you cannot] draw from the external resemblances [any] conclusions as to [the plants'] internal nature." Today, scientists use the word "phenotype" to refer to what Mendel termed an organism's "external resemblance," and the word "genotype" to refer to what Mendel termed an organism's "internal nature." Thus, to restate Mendel's conclusion in modern terms, an organism's genotype cannot be inferred by simply observing its phenotype. Indeed, Mendel's experiments revealed that phenotypes could be hidden in one generation, only to reemerge in subsequent generations. Mendel thus wondered how organisms preserved the "elementen" (or hereditary material) associated with these traits in the intervening generation, when the traits were hidden from view.

Muscle soreness associated with strenuous exercise is at least partly due to
34kurt

Answer:

Anaerobic respiration resulting in oxygen debt, due to lactic acid accumulation.

Explanation:

After strenuous muscle activity extra oxygen is needed to re-convert lactic acid into glucose and ATP. As you exercise the liver anaerobically converts glucose to lactic acid and carbon dioxide this results in oxygen debts that needs to be repaid later.

Oxygen debt by definition is the amount of oxygen needed by muscles to oxidise lactic acid to glucose after muscle activity.

It would lower the pH, raise the acidity of the water, and it would kill off a lot of marine life if it got too high. As species begin to die their predators follow, and this could cause mass extinction.
