QUANTITATIVE human traits form a wide range of states instead of two distinct states. These traits are controlled by many genes.

A quantitative trait is a phenotypic trait whose variation depends on the cumulative action of many genes (minor effect genes) and the environment.

Some examples of quantitative phenotypic traits include weight, height, etc.

It is for that reason that the inheritance pattern of quantitative traits is polygenic.

Conversely, qualitative traits can be described as a category (e.g., black or red coat color) and they are generally controlled by one single gene.

1. If there is not enough carbohydrate intake, how does the body form glucose?

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Glycogenolysis(break down of glycogen to glucose molecules)

Gluconeogenesis(generation of glucose from certain non-carbohydrate carbon substrates such as lipids)

It can make glucose and then use that
Use lipids(some organs such as the brain can’t use lipids as their energy source and need glucose)

Hope this helps:))

What carbohydrate is primarily used by the body to help the digestive system?

LenKa [72]

Carbohydrates are digested in your mouth, stomach and small intestine. Carbohydrase enzymes break down starch into sugars. The saliva in your mouth contains amylase<span>, which is a starch digesting enzyme.</span>

State one effect the reintroduction of the wolf may have on the coyote population within the Adirondacks

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Decrease in the population of coyote occurs after the reintroduction of the wolf within the Adirondacks effect.

Explanation:

Wolves are the top predator in the ecosystem. They hate coyote and kill them and sometime eat them too. So the reintroduction of the wolf decreases the population of coyote by killing them directly and by consuming the prey and the coyote die due to hunger. Coyote feed on rabbit, snakes, deer, fruits and grasses so decrease in coyote population increases the availability of grasses and other animals for different animals.
