You have a cup of beans in front of you with 20 white beans and 20 red beans. (You can also use candy, buttons, or coins). These

beans represent the alleles for a simple Mendelian trait, where red is dominant (R) and white is recessive (r). The cup holds the alleles for an entire population (the gene pool).
Assess the gene pool. How many alleles of each kind are present in your overall population?
1. Dominant: 0, Recessive: 40
2. Dominant: 40, Recessive: 0
3. Dominant: 20, Recessive: 20
4. Dominant: 20, Recessive: 0
5. Dominant: 0, Recessive: 20

Answer:

Number 3

Explanation:

Dominant: 20, Recessive: 20

An allele is the alternative of a gene. On his case, these beans represent the alleles for a simple Mendelian trait, where red is dominant (R) and white is recessive (r).

As states earlier there are 20 red beans (20 dominant alleles) and 20 white beans (20 recessive beans) and each beach represent an allele.

Why aren’t your cells poisoned to death even though they create toxins?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Our cells are not poisoned to death because it is metabolized by our organs.

Explanation:

  • Toxins are any chemical products that damages the functioning of our body.
  • To be more specific, human body do not produce any toxins. They only discrete the waste materials that are easily secreted by our body through the metabolic activities.
  • Organs like liver and kidneys are responsible for fighting against the harmful waste products and toxins by throwing it out from our body.

Soil erosion is a process where the top soil layer is washed away because of the effects of water or wind. An agricultural area
Lana71 [14]

Answer: Plant vegetation so that their roots hold the soil firmly.

Build walls around the farm area.

Add natural fertilizers to the soil.

Soil erosion is a process of removal of top layer of soil which get sediment at some other place due to the affect of agents like wind and water. The superficial upper layers of soil are rich source of nutrients and organic matter and active region for germination of seeds and plant growth. Soil erosion removes these superficial layers making soil less fertile or not fertile and less useful for plant growth.

Plants growing in a vegetation have roots which can hold the soil and will prevent soil erosion from wind and water or any other agent. Building of walls around the farm area will prevent flood water to get inside the farm area and hence, prevents soil erosion by water. Addition of natural fertilizers to the soil adds up nutrients to the soil which facilitate plant growth and plant roots hold the soil therefore, prevents soil erosion.

Why are nutrients and gases most evenly distributed in a lake in the winter?
kvv77 [185]

When the temperature reaches 0˚C (32˚F), the top layer of the lake freezes and turns into ice. In solid form, water molecules are less dense and thus ice floats on the top of the lake.

This solid barrier prevents any wind-induced mixing as well as protects the relatively warm water underneath. Furthermore, light is also blocked so that photosynthesis is inhibited during this period. As the lake water is separated from the atmosphere, no direct oxygen diffusion occurs.

All these factors together causes a more even distribution of nutrients and gases in a lake in winter.
