Answer:

Total biomass of the tree= 75000kilograms

Explanation:

Let us assume that total biomass of tree is "X" Kilograms.

Given

Biomass of insects = 3000 kilograms

Biomass of insects as a percentage of biomass of tree = 4%

Thus,

Mathematically the relation between the biomass of tree and insects can be written as

4% of X = 3000 Kilogram

\frac{4}{100} * X = 3000\\X = \frac{3000* 100}{4} \\X = 3000*25\\X = 7500Kilograms.

Total biomass of the tree= 75000kilograms

4%= 3000kg
100(3000/4)= total biomass of tree= 75000kg

omeli [17]

Answer:

Probability that at least one of them will be affected = 3/16 + 3/16 + 1/16 = 7/16

Explanation:

If both parents are heterozygous for a genetic disease; Xx and Xx

The offspring's they will produce will be as follows ; XX, Xx, xX, xx

  • Probability that first child will be affected = 1/4
  • Probability that first child will not be affected = 1 - 1/4 = 3/4
  • Probability that first child have it and second does not = 1/4 x 3/4 = 3/16
  • Probability that first child does not have it, second child have it = 3/4 x 1/4 = 3/16
  • Probability that both of them will have it = 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/16
  • Hence, Probability that at least one of them will be affected = 3/16 + 3/16 + 1/16 = 7/16
