If all of the offspring have roan coats—white hairs mixed into a base coat of red—what can be said about the red and white allel
madam [21]

Answer:

The alleles for red and white coat color are co-dominant.

Explanation:

Co-dominance is the condition when none of the allele of a gene is dominant. The heterozygous genotype exhibits traits of both alleles.

In the given example, the offspring have roan coat color in which white hairs are mixed into a base coat of red. Since both the alleles are expressed in heterozygous offspring, the alleles for red and white coat colors are co-dominant over each other.

Human caused reductions of biodiversity, include pollution, invasive species, and overexploitation.
Andrew [12]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Development, together with globalization, drove severe changes at a global level. The natural and original environments suffered from these effects and still are.

Human beings have constantly been altering the natural ecosystems and causing irreparable damages to nature. For many decades, development involved society and technology advance over new areas unpopulated by humans.

<u>Some</u> of the principal human activities responsible for biodiversity loss are

  • the uncontrolled use of unrenewable resources,
  • overexploitation of renewable resources;
  • land destruction for the mining industry, farming and cattle industry, buildings, and other infrastructures;
  • the unplanned advance of cities, and opening of new roads to connect those cities.  

All of them involving

  • deforestation and fragmentation of natural landscapes;
  • water, air, and soil pollution,
  • species loss, and reduction of biodiversity.

With globalization, transport around the world became normal. And when traveling around the world, new species are intentionally or unintentionally transported too. When these species, of animal or vegetable origin, get established in a new area, they overgrow to the point of turning invasive.

Invasive species are uncontrollable and cause severe damage in native endemic species by competing for resources. The whole ecosystem structure changes.

But there are some background glitches in the system that are the principal responsible for all the mentioned activities. Some important aspects are lacking

  • The respect for nature,
  • People´s education at different levels to care and protect wildlife,
  • Interest in keeping ancestral knowledge,
  • Planning and previous environmental impact studies,
  • Policies to control human activities,
  • Caring involved government.

If, as a society, we lack these aspects, the possibilities of changing our impact on nature are far away.

qwelly [4]

Answer:

Option-A

Explanation:

The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) now does not create the physical guidelines of their own instead produces the guidelines produced by the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans.

The guidelines are different for different age groups and for the adults which is the group which likes doing physical training, the guidelines suggest that a person should do either 2.30 hours to 5 hours of the moderate exercise per week or 75 minutes to 150 minutes vigorous exercise per week.

In the given question, the most suitable option which follows the guideline of the ACSM is option-A.

Thus, Option-A is the correct answer.

Fisher was found lying on his back. Is it likely that his body was moved after death? Why or why not?
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Is it likely that his body was moved after death? The answer is NO

Why or why not?

This is due to postmortem staining seen on his back which would have been observed on other parts of the body if the body was moved after death

Explanation:

Livor mortis: is the stage where the heart stops pumping blood through the circulatory system causing blood accumulation at the lowest point of the body. It's also called postmortem stain.

It helps in judging the time of death for a body, the location and position of the body if it's at the spot.

You decide to repeat the Meselson-Stahl experiment, except this time you plan to grow the cells on light 14N medium for many gen
Effectus [21]

Answer:

One band of light density and one band of heavy density.

Explanation:

According to conservative model of replication, the original strands do not separate from each other during replication. Hence, after replication the old strands are together and the new strands are together.

Here, cells were grown in 14N medium first so 14N was used for DNA replication and all DNA molecules had 14N. When the cells were transferred to 15N medium, only 15N was available for replication process. New DNA molecules would be synthesised using 15N (15N15N) and old DNA molecules have 14N (14N14N). Hence, in density gradient one band will be of light density (14N14N) and one band will be of heavy density (15N15N).
