Answer:

<h2><em><u>Base</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>isolated</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>system</u></em></h2>

Explanation:

<u>Fixed based system:- </u>

A fixed-base building (built directly on the ground) will move with an earthquake’s motion and can sustain extensive damage as a result. 

<u>Base isolated system:-</u>

A base isolation system is a method of seismic protection where the structure (superstructure) is separated from the base (foundation or substructure).

<em><u>Hence</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

<em><u>A</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>base</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>isolated</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>system</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>much</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>more</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>better</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>in</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>a</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>area</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>where</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>there</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>are</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>a</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>lot</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>of</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>earthquakes</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u> </u></em>

Explain how ionic balance is maintained in the human body​
krek1111 [17]

Answer: Our kidneys filter out excess ions from our blood so that they can be excreted through urine. If the concentration of ions is too high, the kidneys make sure to filter as much of them as they can out of the body. If there are not enough ions, the kidneys will filter them back into the system.

Hope it helps

NP plants purple flowers are dominant to white flowers a white flowered plant across with a plant that’s is heterozygous for the
anygoal [31]

Mendel concluded that pea traits like flower color were determined by separate units. From the results, Mendel proved that all traits do not blend. For instance, purple flowers mixed with white flowers did not produce pink flowers.

Since all of the offspring have the purple phenotype, this tells us that the purple allele is dominant to the white allele. ... This means that 75% of the offspring displayed the dominant phenotype of purple flowers, and 25% displayed the recessive phenotype of white flowers.

Two pea plants, both heterozygous for flower color, are crossed. The offspring will show the dominant purple coloration in a 3:1 ratio. Or, about 75% of the offspring will be purple.

Mendel's Results

Mendel noted the ratio of white flowered plants to purple-flowered plants was about 3:1. That is, for every three purple-flowered plants, there was one white flowered plant.
