Chapter 3, Problem 37P

Considering your answers to Problem 36, does the existence of a particular variation of a 9:3:3:1 ratio among the F2 progeny allow you to infer the operation of a specific biochemical mechanism responsible for these phenotypes? Inversely, if you know a biochemical mechanism of gene interaction, can you predict the ratios of the phenotypes you would see among the F2 progeny?

When physical activity increases, energy requirements increase also. Depending on the type, intensity, and duration of physical activity, the body’s requirements for certain macronutrients may change as well. From the list below, choose all the correct statements about the effects of increased physical activity or athletic training. Select all that apply. An athlete who weighs 70 kg (154 lb) should consume 420 to 700 g of carbohydrate per day. How much additional energy an athlete needs depends on the specific activity the athlete engages in and the frequency of the activity. Those participating in vigorous exercise should restrict their fat intake to less than 15%% of total energy intake. Athletes who are following energy-restricted diets are at risk for consuming insufficient protein. The recommendation to limit saturated fat intake to less than 10%% of total energy intake does not apply to athletes or those who regularly engage in vigorous physical activity.
When taking vitamins and vitamin-mineral supplements, how can one be sure they are getting what they are taking?
