The most important step to take in the case of the scenario given in the question is to assess and establish adequate ventilation. Deprivation of oxygen causes the heart rate to drop because the heart is not getting enough oxygen, and the single most important and effective thing to do in this situation is to ventilate the lungs of the baby.

The amount of bacteria doubles every day. If there are 320 bacteria on day 6 , when will there be 5,120 bacteria?
Talja [164]

Answer:

Day 10

Explanation:

If the number of bacteria increases by a factor of two each day (i.e. it doubles), it will reach 5120 by day 10. At this rate, the colony likely started with 10 bacteria on day one and doubled each day to reach 320 by day 6.

Day 6- 320 bacteria

Day 7- 320×2= 640 bacteria

Day 8- 640×2= 1280 bacteria

Day 9- 1280×2= 2560 bacteria

Day 10- 2560×2= 5120 bacteria

Which characteristic of the genetic code lowers the likelihood of mutation?
Rudik [331]
Degeneracy

Degeneracy simply means that most of the amino acids produced during protein synthesis from DNA is coded by more than one codon. A codon is a sequence of 3 <span>nucleotides that codes for a specific amino acid.

Because more than 1 codon can produce the same amino acid, the chances of having the synthesis of proteins affected by mutations (i.e. point mutations) is decreased. For example, if the codon with the nucleotide series GAA, which codes for the amino acid glutamate, becomes the codon GAG, the codon will still produce glutamate because the code is degenerate. </span>

When heavily armored marine sticklebacks have invaded freshwater lakes where there are no predatory fish, their populations have
eduard

Answer:

B

Explanation:

<em>The correct answer would be that when sticklebacks don't use their armor, it shrinks. Then they pass lighter armor to their offspring.</em>

According to the theory of natural selection, adaptive traits that enable organisms to survive in an environment are selected by the forces of natural selection.

<u>When a particular trait is not needed for survival in an environment, the trait gradually degenerates within the population as natural selection ignores the existence of such trait. The degenerated trait is inherited by the subsequent generations of the population.</u>

The mechanism is also consistent with the law of use and disuse of organs by Jean Larmack.

The correct option is B.
