Chapter 1, Problem 1RQ
Summary Introduction

To determine: The difference between movement and physical activity.

Introduction: A physical activity is an intentional movement that is done to achieve a particular goal. A physical activity includes not only playing sports, but also activities in the daily routine. For example: Cleaning a house, washing the clothes and dishes, shopping, and walking in a garden are also included in physical activities.

Explanation of Solution

The differences between movement and physical activity are as follows:

No.CharacteristicsPhysical activityMovement
1.DefinitionThe intentional and voluntary movement that is done to achieve a particular goal is called physical activity.The change in position of one or more body parts or the entire body is known as a movement.
2.FeaturesPhysical activity is always voluntary.Movement can be voluntary or involuntary.
3.ExampleSwimming in a pool, javelin throw, and running.Movement of limbs, eyelids, and head
Summary Introduction

To provide: An example of human movement that does not satisfy the technical definition of physical activity.

Introduction: Physical activities includes not only playing sports, but also activities in the daily routine. For example: Cleaning the house, washing clothes and dishes, shopping, and walking in garden are also included in physical activities.

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Most of the body movements do not meet the definition of physical activity in all the aspects. For example: Movement of eyelids when blinking is an involuntary movement. Swallowing food, expansion, and contraction of heart and lungs are involuntary movements that do not fit into the definition of physical activity.

Question #3: In the KeyGene paper, the authors state that it would be useful if pollen from an apomict would transmit apomixis-inducing genes to the female in the cross (assuming the pollen is viable). Assuming there was just one gene conferring gametophytic obligate apomixis, and that the two parents are inbreds, what would be the consequences of such a cross if: a) The apomixis was a dominant trait? Indicate the genotypes and phenotypes (apomict or non- apomict) of the parents, F1 and F2 generations. Remember to include the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios (or percentages) in the F1 and F2 generations, and to position the female first (left side) in the parental cross. b) The apomixis was a recessive trait? Indicate the genotypes and phenotypes (apomict or non- apomict) of the parents, F1 and F2 generations. Remember to include the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios (or percentages) in the F1 and F2 generations, and to position the female first (left side) in the…
Question #5: Assume that two genes are identified that confer gametophytic facultative apomixis in soybean. The genes show independent assortment. Recessive alleles at both loci are required for the facultative apomixis. Facultative apomixis is triggered when the temperature at pollination is above 20 degrees C. At temperatures below 20 degrees C, all reproduction is sexual, independent of genotype. A facultative apomict male, capable of producing viable pollen, was crossed with a sexually reproducing female. Assuming the parents are completely inbred, what are the predicted phenotypic ratios (apomict: non-apomict) for the F1, F2, and DH (F1-derived) generations at each of the following temperatures*: a) 15°C? b) 25°C? *for full credit, show crosses and genotypes where appropriate. Remember to position the female first (left side) in the cross. Type your answer here:
a. What percentage of a drug is eliminated after 4 half-lives? Please round to the nearest percent.  b. What will happen to elimination of the drug in the previous question if the system is saturated? explain and show any math involved
