Answer:

20838.6

Explanation:

We are first required to calculate the amount of kilo calories in one lb or one pound of fat.

One pound is equal to 454 grams.

One gram of fat contains 9 kilo calories.

Thus, the total kilo calories in one pound of body fat is equal to

454 * 9\\4086

Total kilo calories in six pound of body fat is equal to

4086 * 6\\24516

Now, excluding the weight of water, we can say that one grams of fat is actually equal to

1 - 0.15\\0.85

grams.

Thus, the total kilo calories to be spend after removing the water from the fat is equal to

24516 * 0.85\\20838.6

DerKrebs [107]
vascular tissue
The functions of this tissue is to transport water, minerals, and sugars to different parts of the plant.
 How is vascular tissue structure is adapted to its function?
The tissue is made of Xylem and Phloem. Xylem tissue transport water and minerals upwards and throughout the plant. This tissue is made of tracheids and vessels have pores and pipelines that allows minerals and water to be conducted from one tube to the other.
The phloem tissue transport dissolved minerals. It has sieves  cells and tubes with numerous pores that allow substances to be with cells. sieveexcahngedadajacent

2.) From where do lion cubs get their chromosomes? How does this happen to produce the pattern that you see?​
Vlad [161]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete.

However, lions have 38 chromosomes (19 pairs) and <u>there cubs get their chromosomes from there parents</u>; with each parent donating 19 each. They also have a pair of chromosomes known as sex chromosomes (X and Y). The female always donates the X chromosome and the male donates either a X (which leads to a female cub) or a Y (which leads to a male cub), just like in many mammals.

NOTE: Chromosomes are threadlike structures in the nucleus of a cell that carry/stores genetic materials/genes.

Sweet yellow tomatoes with a pear shape bring a high price per basket to growers. Pear shape, yellow color, and terminal flower
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer and Explanation: The farmer has a pure-breeding line of tomato means the farmer has a tomato with genotype FFrrtt while the other line of tomato has genotype ffRRTT.

The cross between these lines gives a F1 generation of heterozygous full, red and axial or FfRrTt.

With an individual of F1 crosses with another individual of F1, the Punnet Square will be:

FfRrTt x FfRrTt

1) Dividing each characteristics, for simplicity:

          F         f

F       FF       Ff

f        Ff        ff

          R       r

R       RR     Rr

r        Rr      rr

         T      t

T       TT   Tt

t        Tt     tt

Analysing Punnett squares, we notice the line wanted (ffrrTT) will be produced, when an individual of F1 generation cross with another individual with the same generation.
