1.Where is there more atmospheric pressure, in New Orleans, at sea level, or Mt. Everest? Why? a. New Orleans, because pressure
sineoko [7]

Answer:

a. New Orleans, because pressure increases as you get deeper in the atmosphere and closer to the center of Earth

Explanation:  

  • Low altitudes: There is more atmospheric pressure in comparison with higher altitudes. When closer to the Earth core, the more pressure and temperature there is.
  • High Altitudes: As high increases, atmospheric pressure, and temperature, decreases, leading to a lower oxygen partial pressure in the environment.

At sea level, the atmosphere pressures the earth's surface with approximately 1-kilogram per square centimeter strength. This means that at sea level, there is one ton of air making pressure over us. But this air pressure decreases with altitude.  

At high level there is less air making pressure from above, and there is less gravity acting. Molecules are more separate from each other, and the density decreases.

Please HELP////2. A couple are both phenotypically normal, but their son suffers from hemophilia, a sex-linked recessive disorde
katrin [286]

Answer:

1/4 suffer from hemophilia

1/4 are heterozygous

So since they are normal but their son isn't it is assumed that the mom is the carrier since the dad has to be X^HY

X^HY x  X^HX^h

Set up a pedigree

X^HX^H X^HX^h

X^HY     X^hY

1/4 suffer from hemophilia (X^h)

1/4 are heterozygous (X^HX^h)

Describe two ways in which the evolution of organisms can have a harmful effect on humans
Ksenya-84 [330]

When evolving, microorganisms such as harmful bacteria may develop a resistance to antibiotics. This means that the disease the bacteria in question cause will be harder to treat. This is quite bad since bacteria can pass on traits to other bacteria without even multiplying.

The flu virus is also a good example. Generally, the virus itself mutates quite frequently. This means that with each mutation the virus has a potential to gain a genetic trait which may cause more severe flu symptoms or a resistance to drugs/the antibodies our bodies produced to counter-attack the type of flu virus it has previously encountered.
