Answer: A focal spot in the x-ray setup is the area of the anode surface which receives the beam of electrons from the cathode. It is the apparent source of x-rays.

Below are some of the factors that affect its size.

Explanation:

Size of the focal spot depends on

* angle of the anode

Other prime factors that affect x-ray emission; under the control of the radiographer includes;

• Miliamperage-second (mAs)(tube current measurement)

• Kilovoltage (kVp) Controls both the quantity and quality of the x-ray beam with the speed and energy.

• Distance (d) - Related to tube design and construction.

• Tube housing

• Target material

• Filtration

• Voltage waveform

Igoryamba

Answer:

C. Genes C and D have an increased likelihood of undergoing recombination

Explanation:

Recombination in genetics is the phenomenon responsible for genetic diversity in species of organisms. It is the process whereby the DNA (carrying genes) are rearranged in a new way on a chromosome. It is when genes are recombined during meiosis or gamete formation.

However, recombination is only possible between two different chromosomal segments or same chromosomal segments that are far apart i.e. unlinked. The farther apart two genes are on a chromosome, the greater the chance for recombination to occur. It is, however, not possible for the recombination frequency of two genes to exceed 50% i.e. 50% is the maximum.

Genes C and D are located far on opposite ends of the same chromosome, which means that there is a likelihood or chance that recombination will occur between them. They cannot exceed 50% recombination rate

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

d. Competitive inhibition will decrease because the proportion of the active sites occupied by substrate will increase.

Explanation:

Enzymes are bio catalysts in living cells responsible for aiding biochemical reactions.

Their active sites are primary protein  3D structure  for binding with substrates during   reactions.

Enzymes reactions are usually affected by inhibitors(e.g methyl alcohol) which compete with the active site with the actual substrate(ethyl alcohol) ,

This is an example of competitive inhibition. The more ethyl alcohol available, the more active sites  occupied, therefore denying the inhibitor methylalchol  chances to the active site, thus preventing the formation of toxic formaldehyde, and more of non toxic substances from formation of more ADH-METHYL ALCOHOL COMPLEXES at the active sites

Ludmilka [50]
There are many examples you can choose from, but one great example, a venus fly trap, and a lotus, for example. The two examples given differ because they:
*provide themselves with different types of foods
*have a different system of reproducing, as well as growing
*and live in two different types of environments.
Also, remember, the fly trap is a carnivorous plant, while the lotus is not
