If the number of photosynthetic organisms on the earth decreased drastically, which would happen as a result? Less water would b

e available on the earth's surface. Less solar energy would reach the earth's atmosphere. More oxygen gas would be found in the atmosphere. More carbon dioxide gas would be found in the atmosphere.

Answer:

More carbon dioxide gas would be found in the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process during which green plants manufacture carbohydrates using inorganic products in the form of water and carbon dioxide. It is represented by the following equation:

6CO_2 + 6H_2O --> C_6H_1_2O6 + 6O_2

<em>Hence, if the number of photosynthetic organisms on the earth decreases drastically, more carbon dioxide (which could have been used up ordinarily) will be found in the atmosphere</em>

Which of the following modifies and smoothes the respiratory pattern?
stealth61 [152]

The correct answer is: A) pontine respiratory centers

The respiratory centre in the pons is responsible for generating and maintaining the rhythm of respiration. Besides this elementary function, it also has the ability to adjust respiration rhythm in c response to physiological changes. Respiratory centre consists of three major respiratory groups of neurons:

•  The dorsal respiratory group (DRG)- initiates inspiration (inhalation)

• the ventral respiratory group (VRG)-responsible for exhalation

• Pontine respiratory group- includes the pneumotaxic (controls both the rate and the pattern of breathing) and apneustic centers (promotes inhalation by sending signals to dorsal group).

Select the three factors from the choices below that determine the size of the actual focal spot on the target anode.
Zarrin [17]

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

This image shows the various forces acting on a block of rock situated on a rock slope. What does arrow 4 represent?
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

4 is gravitational force

Option B

Explanation:

This is a force diagram of a block on an inclined plane.

The force component is what makes up weight in the diagram. Weight is given as mass multiplied by the gravity.

Gravitational force acts downward and it is the force of attraction between all objects and the earth. It is directly proportional to mass.

Force 1 and 2 are both shear forces that acts parallel to the face of the incline. They are mostly expressed as frictional forces.

In a population of grasshoppers, the color green (G) is completely dominant over the color brown (g). If 23% of the population i
barxatty [35]
The answer is 49.92%

Let's use the <span>Hardy-Weinberg principle:
p + q = 1
p</span>² + 2pq + q² = 1
<span>
where:
p - the frequency of dominant allele G
q - </span>the frequency of recessive allele g
p² - the frequency of homozygous dominant individuals GG with colour green
2pq - the frequency of heterozygous individuals Gg with colour green
p² - the frequency of homozygous recessive individuals gg with color brown

23% of the population is brown: p² = 23% = 0.23
p = √(p²) = √0.23 = 0.48

p = 0.48
p + q = 1
0.48 + q = 1
q = 1 - 0.48 = 0.52

<span>The percentage of the population that is expected to be heterozygous is 2pq:
2pq = 2 * p * q = 2 * 0.48 * 0.52 = 0.4992 = 49.92%</span>
