Answer:

Skeletal muscles

Explanation:

Skeletal muscles contribute to maintaining temperature homeostasis in the body by generating heat. Muscle contraction requires energy and produces heat as a byproduct of metabolism.

Answer:

D) Water temperature decreases; copper temperature increases

Explanation:

The temperature is a way of describing how much heat something has. Because the temperatures of the two substances are not the same, the heat is going to want to travel to the substance with less heat. Therefore, since the copper has less heat than the water, the heat will be transferred to the copper. Remember that this heat is now leaving the water. This increases the temperature of the copper and decreases the temperature of the water.

How does resource partitioning help two simular species coexist?

klemol [59]

Research partitioning is an adaptive evolution that when species are have similar preys, they compete with each other and one species is deemed to extinct in the process however if two species are of different preys, then they can exist with one another. To exist with one another, organisms belonging to a same species either compete for the resources or divide it amongst themselves. This concept is important because it helps in diversified ecology, where animals and plants of the same species co-exist and creates a beauty with nature.

Michelle was curious about her mother's blood type. Michelle knew that her own blood type was o,

babymother [125]

Blood type is determined by the I gene. IAIA and IAi determines A blood type. IBIB and IBi determines B blood type. ii determines 0 blood type. Michelle's mother must at least carry one recessive allele i.

--------------------------------

The blood type is determined by a gene, which is triallelic.

IA dominant over i. The person presents A type of antigens.

IB dominant over i. The person presents B type of antigens.

IA and IB are codominant. The person presents both types of antigens, A and B.

i is the recessive allele. The person does not present any antigen.

⇒ H0m0zyg0us dominant individuals IAIA, or heter0zyg0us Individuals IAi, will express the A blood type.

⇒ H0m0zyg0us dominant individuals IBIB, or heter0zyg0us Individuals IBi, will express the B blood type.

⇒ Individuals with h0m0zyg0us recessive genotype, ii will express the 0 blood type.

⇒ Individuals carrying IA and IB alleles will express the AB blood type.

To solve the problem, we will use this information.

We know that

Michelle is blood type 0

Father is blood type A

Brother and sister are blood type A

Mother??

⇒ If Michelle is blood type 0, then her genotype is ii. She must have received one recessive allele from her father and one from her mother.

⇒ This suggests that Michelle's father, who is blood type A, is heter0zyg0us IAi. He must have at least one dominant allele IA that determines his phenotype, and one i allele.

⇒ Michelle's brother and sisters are also type A. They might be either h0m0zyg0us dominant IAIA or heter0zyg0us IAi.

⇒ Michelle's mother should have at least one recessive allele i. She could be either IAi or IBi, or ii. There are three possible option for her genotype.

Let us make the Punnet squares to understand it better. We know the genotype of the father, but there are three options for the mother.

Option 1

Cross) father x mother

Parentals) IAi x IAi

Gametes) IA i IA i

Punnett square) IA i

IA IAIA IAi

i IAi ii

F1) 25% of the progeny is expected to be h0m0zyg0us dominant IAIA

50% of the progeny is expected to be heter0zygus IAi

25% of the progeny is expected to be h0m0zyg0us recessive ii

75% of the progeny is expected to be blood type A ⇒ IAIA and IAi ⇒ Sisters and brother

25% of the progeny is expected to be blood tye 0 ⇒ ii ⇒ Michelle

Option 2

Cross) father x mother

Parentals) IAi x IBi

Gametes) IA i IB i

Punnett square) IA i

IB IBIA IBi

i IAi ii

F1) 25% of the progeny is expected to be IAIB

25% of the progeny is expected to be heter0zygus IAi

25% of the progeny is expected to be heter0zygus IBi

25% of the progeny is expected to be h0m0zyg0us recessive ii

25% of the progeny is expected to be blood type AB ⇒ IAIB

25% of the progeny is expected to be blood type A ⇒ IAi ⇒ Sisters and brother

25% of the progeny is expected to be blood type B ⇒ IBi

25% of the progeny is expected to be blood tye 0 ⇒ ii ⇒ Michelle

Option 3

Cross) father x mother

Parentals) IAi x ii

Gametes) IA i i i

Punnett square) IA i

i IAi ii

F1) 50% of the progeny is expected to be heter0zygus IAi

25% of the progeny is expected to be h0m0zyg0us recessive ii

50% of the progeny is expected to be blood type A ⇒ IAi ⇒ Sisters and brother

50% of the progeny is expected to be blood tye 0 ⇒ ii ⇒ Michelle

Despite the fact we can not determine for sure the mother's genotype, we know that she carries at least one recessive allele, which is why Michelle's blood type is 0.
