Answer:

Peter's parents genotypes: hh and hh

Peter's possible genotypes: HH or Hh

Gretchen's concern: The legitimacy of Peter's parent is doubtful

Explanation:

Assuming hairy shoulders allele is represented by H and non-hairy shoulder allele by h. H is dominant over h, hence, for someone to have a hairy shoulder, he/she must posses one H allele (Hh or HH).

Peter's parents do not have hairy shoulders, hence their genotypes will be hh and hh.

Peter has hairy shoulder, hence, his genotype is either HH or Hh.

Gretchen is concerned because neither of Peter's parents have hairy shoulder. This means neither of the parents have the hairy shoulder allele (H). The concern of Gretchen would be about the source of Peter's hairy shoulder allele. If neither of the supposed parents have the allele, where did he get his allele from?

The legitimacy of Peter's parents is questionable and this is why Gretchen is concerned.

Which of the following is a disadvantage to the coal-to-liquid production of synthetic fuels
Ludmilka [50]
A disadvantage of coal to liquid production of synthetic fuels is THAT IT REQUIRES MORE COAL MINING.
The coal to liquid production of synthetic fuels involves the conversion of solid coal to liquid fuel.This can be done either directly or indirectly through chemical processes. The process has many advantages, including: improvement in national and economic security, less dependence on foreign oil, provision of some environmental benefits, such as cleaner oil. But one disadvantage of this process is that it requires extensive coal mining.

¿que organismo o institución en el Perú se encarga de estudiar el clima para realizar los perfiles climáticos?
kap26 [50]

El Ministerio de Medio Ambiente (MINAM) gestiona esto, lo gestiona a través del comité nacional sobre el clima.

El cambio climático en Perú es vulnerable y necesita altas adaptaciones. Hay una gran contribución al calentamiento global por el derretimiento de sus glaciares ubicados en los picos andinos.

La pesca y la agricultura en las regiones costeras de bajo nivel son propensas a la elevación de alta mar que puede destruir las infraestructuras económicas y disponibles presentes.

Esta institución de los gobiernos está haciendo un esfuerzo frenético para reducir esta vulnerabilidad, asegurando una reducción en la emisión de gases de efecto invernadero.

Además, el país está adoptando caminos con bajas emisiones de carbono en un intento por conservar la reserva forestal de carbono, con una mayor reducción de las emisiones de la combustión de combustible y otros sectores industriales.

Answer:

This is being managed by the ministry of environment(MINAM).It manages this through the national committee on climate.

The climate change in Peru is vulnerable and needs high adaptations.There is high contribution to global warming from the melting of its glaciers located on at the   Andean peaks.

Fishery and agriculture at low-levels coastal regions are prone to high sea rise which may destroy the  economic and available infrastructures present.

This institution of the governments is making frantic effort to reduces this vulnerability, by ensuring reduction in the green house gas emission.

Besides the country is embracing low carbon paths in an attempt to conserve the forest carbon reserve,with further reduction in emission from fuel combustion and other industrial sectors.

Select the correct answer from the drop down menu. Enzymes break down large molecules. In an experiment, a scientist adds lipase
Natalka [10]

Answer:

There are no options to this question, however, it can be answered. The answers to the blank spaces are:

1. Fatty Acids

2. A decrease in the rate of lipid breakdown

Explanation:

Lipids are large biomolecules that are formed from monomeric units called FATTY ACIDS. Digestive enzymes such as lipase as described in this question breaks down lipids into its monomer called FATTY ACIDS.

However, enzymes are proteinous molecules, meaning they are subject to denaturation when exposed to adverse conditions such as heat. According to this question, the scientist heats the enzymes and finds that it can't bind onto the lipids anymore because it has been DENATURED. This situation will result in the DECREASE IN THE RATE OF LIPID BREAKDOWN because the enzyme in charge is no longer functional.
