Answer and Explanation:

Possibly, you forgot to attach the table with the contents of each food. Therefore, I calculated the task with similar values.

1. Assume you have Food A, B, and C. Each has certain amount of Calcium, Iron, and Vit C.

Let's designate: Calcium → X oz , Iron → Y oz, vit C → Z oz

2. Assume you have following amount of Calcium in each food:

Food A = 30 mg/oz
Food B = 25 mg/oz
Food C = 20 mg/oz

3. Assume you have following amount of Iron in each food:

Food A = 1 mg/oz
Food B = 1 mg/oz
Food C = 2 mg/oz

4. Assume you have following amount of vit C in each food:

Food A = 2 mg/oz
Food B = 5 mg/oz
Food C = 4 mg/oz

Calculations:

→ You have 3 different food and each has Calcium in it. You need exactly 320mg of Calcium per day. Therefore, each food would comprise certain proportion of daily Calcium intake. We can come up with equation: 30X+25Y+20Z = 390 mg

Similarly, for iron and vitamin C, the next equations could be used:

X+Y+2Z=17 - Iron

2X+5Y+4Z=42 - Vit C

→ Now you have a system of equations:

30X+25Y+20Z = 390 (1)

X+Y+2Z=17 (2)

2X+5Y+4Z=42 (3)

→ Look for similarities! (1) and (3) seem to be similar. We can multiply the (3) by -5 to obtain: -10X-25Y-20Z=-210. We add the (1) and modified (3) equations.

30X+25Y+20Z = 390

-10X-25Y-20Z=-210

__________________

20X+0+0=180

20X=180

→ X=9 (oz of Calcium)

→ Now, we can put x=9 into equations above to ease our job:

270+25Y+20Z=390 → 25Y+20Z=390-270=120

9+Y+Z=17 → Y+2Z=17-9=8

18+5Y+4Z=42 → 5Y+4Z=42-18=24

→ Similarly, we can use Eq-s (2) and (3). We can multiply the (2) by -5 to obtain: -5Y-10Z=-40. We add the (3) and modified (2) equations.

-5Y-10Z=-40

5Y+4Z=24

__________________

-6Z=-24

Z=4

→ Z=4 (oz of vit C)

→ Now, we can take X+Y+Z=17 (2) and just put in known values(X=9 and Z=4) to obtain Y:

9+Y+4=17

→ Y=17-9-4=4 (oz of Iron)

That's all! So, if you have table values, you can just re-write the equations and doing it stepwise, as it is shown here, you can manage to calculate every value you need :)

15. When there is light, plants do which of the following biological processes? *

zhuklara [117]

Answer: Plants do both photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

Explanation:

All cells do cellular respiration even without light.

Honestly, photosynthesis alone would be right since the teacher didnt state the questions correctly. But you should choose both cause in the light it does both.

Which type of change would be more likely to have severe consequences—substitution or deletion? Why?

ludmilkaskok [199]

While both will equate changes in a genetic chain, deletion would have more severe consequences. A substitution mutation usually only causes minor disorders and diseases, like sickle cell anemia. Whereas deletion causes much more serious diseases, like cystic fibrosis, and turner syndrome which is where a female is born with only one X chromosome.

Describe the role of chiasmata in chromosome segregation during meiosis.

Aleksandr [31]

Explanation:

The phase of Prophase I of meiosis is very long and divided into 5 subphases: Leptotene, Zygote, Pachytene, Diplotene, and Diakinesis. During a phase of the Diplotene, the degree of condensation is high, which allows individualizing the sister- chromatids that remain attached by the cohesins. The synaptonemal complex disintegrates, and from the centromeres begins a repulsion between homologous chromosomes, which remain associated only with the places where they occur as permutations.

These sites are called chiasmas (Greek, crossed) because they show the crossover of homologous chromatids. Chiasmas represent the cytological finding of the occurrence of permutation. The presence of at least one bivalent chiasm is essential to ensure the correct segregation of the homologous chromosomes in anaphase I.

Which of the following is responsible of holding DNA

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Hydrogen bonds.

Explanation:

The DNA double helix is held together by two main forces: hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs inside the helix and the Van der Waals base-stacking interaction.
