Why do some small bridges have weight limits that depend on how many wheels or axles the crossing vehicle has?

Sladkaya [172]2 years ago

Well you know sometimes you see a lot of small bridges that will have weight limit signs. I believe this is really for safety precautions. Keyword: SMALL bridge -

Due to some bridges being small, the materials and strength of the bridge may not can withstand a certain weight. The contents of the vehicle, axels, and wheels, all add to that weight. So there is a very good reason for that to matter.
I hope my somewhat, tied together answer provides just the information you need!

20. Explain how health care professionals treat unregulated (or abnormal) cellular growth in the body
goldenfox [79]

Unregulated and uncontrolled cell growth is the most common simple definition of cancer. Because of the many types of cancers and a huge range of possible symptoms, treatments are also very diverse. Type of treatment also depends on cancer stage at diagnosis, and the patient's overall health. Some forms of treatment:

• Chemotherapy-usage of chemicals (medications) that target rapidly uncontrolled dividing cells,

• Hormone therapy

• Immunotherapy-usage of the medications that boost the immune system

• Radiation therapy-usage of radiation to kill the cancer cells

• Surgery

• New approaches such as stem cell therapy or personalized therapy.

In pea plants, the allele for tall stalks (T) is dominant over the allele for short stalks (t). Suppose a cross between a tall p
vazorg [7]

Answer:

Tt - 1/2

tt - 1/2

Explanation:

<em>A cross between a tall pea plant and a short pea plant that produces 43 tall and 47 short offpsring (almost 1:1) is most likely a cross involving a heterozygous tall individual and a homozygous short individual.</em>

Tt   x   tt

Offspring = Tt   Tt   tt   tt (50% tall and 50% short)

If one of the tall offspring (Tt) is crossed with one of the short offspring (tt):

Tt   x   tt

Offspring = Tt   Tt   tt   tt

Genotype ratio = 2Tt:2tt

Hence,

Tt = 1/2

tt = 1/2
