Answer:

Independent variable: Different products of toothpaste

Dependent variable: Amount of plaque left in her teeth

Control group: Water

Constant: Same amount of time for product to have an effect

Explanation:

Independent variable is the variable that is subject to manipulation or change by the experimenter in order to effect a measurable response. The independent variable in this experiment is the DIFFERENT PRODUCTS OF TOOTHPASTE USED.

The dependent variable is the variable that is measured during the experiment. In this experiment, the dependent variable is the AMOUNT OF PLAQUE LEFT IN ALEX'S TEETH.

The control group in an experiment is the group that does not receive the treatment/independent variable. In this case, the usage of WATER is the control.

The constant is the variable kept the same for all the groups in the experiment. In the case, the Same amount of time for each product to have an effect on her teeth is the CONSTANT.

Alkaptonuria is an infrequent autosomal recessive condition. It is first noticed in newborns when the urine in their diapers tur
Arisa [49]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Let the disorder be represented by the allele a.

Since the disease is an autosomal recessive one, affected individuals will have the genotype aa and normal individuals will have the genotype Aa or AA.

Since the four adults are carriers, their genotypes would be Aa.

                    Aa     x     Aa

Progeny:    AA    2Aa    aa

Probability of being affected = 1/4

Probability of being a carrier = 1/2

Probability of not being affected = 3/4

(a) The chance that the child second child of Mary and Frank will have alkaptonuria = 1/2

(b) The chance that  the third child of Sara and James will be free of the condition = 3/4

(c)

(d) If someone has no family history of the disorder, their genotype would be AA.

                 AA     x     aa

                        4 Aa

<em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history </em>= 0

(e)

(f) <em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history</em> = 0

In order to make new nucleic acids your body needs food that contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen as well as
sweet-ann [11.9K]

The correct answer is option D, that is, nitrogen and phosphorus.  

Nucleic acids refer to the macromolecules comprising oxygen, hydrogen, phosphorus, and carbon. They are the small biomolecules or the biopolymers, playing an essential role in all the known forms of life.  

They comprise nucleotides that are the monomers formed of three constituents, that is, a 5-carbon sugar, a nitrogenous base, and a phosphate group. If the sugar is obtained from ribose as deoxyribose, then the polymer is DNA, and if the sugar is a compound ribose, then the polymer is RNA.
