a. It is incompletely penetrant, due to environmental factors.

It has variable expressivity due to the environmental factors.

The variation in expressivity occurs due to the environmental factors of that individual. Expressivity describes the differences observed in the phenotype between two individuals that belongs to same genotype.

In the condition, when the patient is allowed to consume the fructose based food, so it expresses the change in its body due to no tolerance against fructose so we can conclude that the change occurs due to environment not due to genetics.

Potassium has a half-life of 12 hours. What fraction of a 100g sample is left after 48 hours
EastWind [94]

Answer:

After 48 hours amount left = 6.25 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Half life of potassium = 12 hours

Total mass = 100 g

Mass left after 48 hours = ?

Solution:

Number of half lives passed:

Number of half lives = Time elapsed / half life

Number of half lives = 48 hours/ 12 hours

Number of half lives = 4

At time zero = 100 g

At first half life = 100 g/ 2 = 50 g

At 2nd half life = 50 g/2 = 25 g

At 3rd half life = 25 g/2 = 12.5g

At 4th half life = 12.5 g/2 = 6.25 g
