Answers

Im pretty sure that it is (A) because blood pumps to get every where through your body. If it didn't one half of your body would feel cold or numb.  

The answer is C, I just had this question-

C. To move oxygen-poor blood through the lungs and to move oxygen-rich blood to the rest of the body

A gene for eye color in an island fly species has two alleles: the dominant allele codes for blue eyes, and the recessive allele codes for green eyes. If genetic drift is the only force that changes allele frequencies in a fly population, what is expected to happen to the blue and green eye allele frequencies in the population?

Answers

Answer:

The changes in the frequencies of blue and green eye alleles can not be predicted since genetic drift is a random event.  

Explanation:

Genetic drift is the change in the allele frequencies of a population caused by some chance event. The effect of genetic drift is more pronounced in smaller populations since random events cause changes of greater magnitude in a small population. It can cause the complete loss of an allele from a small population.

According to the given information, the frequencies of alleles for green and blue eyes are changed by genetic drift which in turn would produce random evolutionary changes Either of the alleles may be eliminated from the population irrespective of the fact that the allele is beneficial or harmful. Thus, genetic drift would change the frequencies of the allele in an unpredictable manner.

What methods would the body use to provide a person with energy throughout a race?

Answers

The following are the energy systems that the body would use to provide a person with energy throughout a race: >ATP-PC-high power, short duration, ATP-PC system can make energy at about 36 calories minute. >Glycolytic-moderate power/short duration can produce energy at about 16 calories per minute. > Oxidative-low power/long duration.  creates 10 calories per minute, approximately.

Answer:

For the first 3 seconds, the muscle cells use the ATP they have within them.

For the next 8-10 seconds, the muscles use creatine phosphate stores to provide ATP.

For the next 90 seconds, the body uses anaerobic respiration to provide ATP.

For the remainder of the race, the body uses aerobic respiration to provide ATP.
