Answer:

50%

Explanation:

If the male has a cleft chin, that means that his chromosomes is Aa. His wife must be aa.

             Female      Female

Male      Aa             Aa

Male      aa             aa

With Aa, the child will have a cleft chin. With aa, the child will not. So the probability is 50%.

What does diffusion do in the respiratory system and circulatory system
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Diffusion in the Lungs trades out Carbon Dioxide (CO2) for Oxygen (O2) In the Circulatory system it trades Oxygen (O2) for Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

Explanation:

As you breathe the Lungs take in air, as they do that the air travels to the bronchi, from there it goes through a process where the veins which have carried de-oxygenated blood to be diffused and reloaded with Oxygen and trade off their CO2. Then the blood flows through arteries and delivers the needed O2 to cells throughout the body and the cycle repeats.

Why is redi's experiment a good example of a controlled experiment
Step2247 [10]
A controlled experiment is when the experimenter can change one variable in the experiment and completely change the results.

Redi experiment involved a closed jar with rotting meat on the inside. He waited for a few days and found no new forms of life in the jar.
He then did the same experiment, but this time he took the lid off the jar. After those few days he found there were maggots in the rotting meat from flies.

This is a great example of a controlled experiment, because he only had to change one variable to completely change the results. In this case that variable was just removing the lid from the jar.

Redi was trying to prove spontaneous generation with his experiment. Although, it failed.

Spontaneous generation: When life forms from non-livings.

Redi disproved spontaneous generation, but proved biogenesis.

Biogenesis: When life comes from other living beings.

He proved biogenesis because the flies had reproduced when the jar was opened.

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Five hundred out of every one thousand rats would die

Explanation:

Median lethal dose LD-50 (lethal dose 50%) is used as a measure of poisoning potential of a substance. LD-50 is the dose of substance, given all at once, which causes the death of 50% (one half) of a group of test animals.  LD-50 is usually expressed as the amount of chemical administered (e.g., milligrams) per 100 grams or per kilogram of the body weight of the test animal. In this example, the test animals were rats, they were administrated a certain insecticide. Administration methods that are the most common are dermal (applied to the skin) and oral (given by mouth). If the determined LD-50 is 250 milligrams per kilogram of body mass, it means that one half (five hundred) of one thousand rats would die, because we are talking about lethal doses.
