问题 计算题

如图所示,在运动场的一条直线跑道上,每隔5 m远放置一个空瓶,运动员在进行折返跑训练时,从中间某一瓶子处出发,跑向出发点右侧最近的空瓶,将其扳倒后返回并扳倒出发点处的瓶子,之后再反向跑回并扳倒前面最近处的瓶子,这样,每扳倒一个瓶子后跑动方向就反方向改变一次,当他扳倒第6个空瓶时,他跑过的路程是多大?位移是多大?在这段时间内,人一共几次经过出发点?

答案

80 m  10 m  4次

如图所示,设运动员从位置O出发跑向位置a,扳倒空瓶后返回位置O,扳倒空瓶后又跑向位置c,扳倒空瓶后再跑向位置b,依次进行下去,当他扳倒第6个空瓶时应在位置d处,因此可求出运动员跑过的总路程和位移.

由以上分析得 路程s0=2s1+s2+s3+s4+s5

="(2×5+10+15+20+25)" m="80" m

位移大小s=="10" m

往返过程中共经过出发点O处4次(不包括从出发点开始时).

Our brains could be hard-wired to be male or female long before we begin to grow testes(丸)or ovaries(卵巢)in the womb. This discovery might explain why some people feel trapped in a body that’s the wrong sex, and could also lead to tests that reveal the true "brain sex" of babies born with ambiguous genitalia(生殖器).
Till now, the orthodoxy among developmental biologists has been that embryos develop ovaries and become female unless a gene called SRY on the Y chromosome is switched on. If this gene is active, it makes testes develop instead. This switch is seen as the key event in determining whether a baby is a girl or a boy. Only after the gonads(性腺) form and flood the body with the appropriate hormones, the theory goes, is the sex of our minds and bodies determined.
But in a study of mice, a team at the University of California, Los Angeles, has now found that males and females show differences in the expression of no fewer than 50 genes well before SRY switches on. "It’s the first discovery of genes differentially expressed in the brain, "says Eric Vilain, who led the UCLA team. "They may have an impact on the hard-wired development of the brain in terms of sexual differentiation independent of gonadal induction."
Vilain is presenting details of seven of the 50 genes to the annual meeting of the American Society of Human Genetics in Baltimore this week. Three of these genes are dominant in females and four are dominant in males. The next step for Vilain and his team will be to show that the genes in question really do influence brain sexuality—and not just in mice. This is likely to be a much tougher proposition than merely showing there are differences in expression.
But if the findings are confirmed, they could one day yield blood tests that allow doctors to establish the brain sex of babies born with genitalia that share features of both sexes. At present doctors and parents have to guess which gender to assign for surgical "correction".

What has been found by the study at UCLA

A.We human beings have fewer than fifty genes.

B.Males and females have similar expression genes.

C.Differences in the expression of genes appear before SRY switches on.

D.Sexual differentiation depends mainly on gonadal induction.
