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

The ________ of exercise determines whether carbohydrates or fat is the predominant source of energy production
Svetach [21]
The correct term to fill in the blank would be intensity. The intensity of exercise determines whether carbohydrates or fat is the predominant source of energy production. During high-intensity workouts, it is the fat that is used as the source of energy production while low-intensity exercises would only use the carbohydrates present for energy.

Rama09 [41]

<u>Answer</u>: Thermal energy---->  a polar bear breaks down stored fat to increase its temperature.

Mechanical energy-------> bat emits and receives sounds to locate prey.

Electrical energy------>eel releases a current to defend itself.

Radiant energy -------->  a firefly produces a green glow from its abdomen to attract mates.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • <em>Thermal energy</em> is the energy created in the movement of particles that leads to the production of heat and thus, the temperature increases. Since the polar bears break down fat to increase temperature, the energy generated is thermal energy.  
  • The<em> mechanical energy</em> is defined as the sum of energy of motion and   the position of an object  . Thus the energy produced by the bat to locate its prey is mechanical energy.
  • The energy associated with the production of electromagnetic radiation is<em> radiant energy,</em> thus the glow produced by fireflies is a form of radiant energy.
  • The energy produced due to the movement of electrons is electrical energy. Thus, the energy produced by an eel in the form of electric current is <em>electrical energy.</em>
