Ralph wanted to breed a pea plant that produced only purple flowers. He continued to breed purple-flower producing pea plants together over six generations. The results of Ralph's selective breeding are shown above. What did the selective breeding do to the population of pea plants?

A. increased its genetic diversity

B. decreased its genetic diversity

C. caused a new species of pea plant to form

D. caused a pea plant to exhibit a new characteristic

The correct answer would be that selective breeding decreased the genetic diversity of the population of the pea plants.

The genetic diversity of a population can be viewed as the number of genes in the gene pool of the population.

With each successive generation, more purple-flowered and less white-flowered pea plants were being produced until the 6th generation when only purple-flowered pea plants were produced. The ratio of the purple color gene to that of white color kept increasing until there was no longer a white color gene in the population. Hence, the genetic diversity of the population was decreased by the selective breeding.

The correct option is B

Which of these elements could gain one electron to form an ionic bond with potassium explain why

Answers

Answer:

Chlorine

It has 7 electrons in it last shell. it will gain one electron to complete its octet and become Cl-. The ionic bond of chlorine form with potassium is Kcl ( potassium chloride)

Phosphorus has 5 electrons in its last shell it need 3 more electron to stable .

Sulphur has 6 electron. it needs 2 electrons

Argon is already stable as it has 8 electrons in its last shell it will not gain or loose any electrons

To solve such this we must know the concept of ionic reaction. Cl is the element could gain one electron to form an ionic bond with potassium.

What is chemical reaction?

Chemical reaction is a process in which two or more than two molecules collide in right orientation and energy to form a new chemical compound.

Potassium will act as cation as K⁺, chlorine has 7 electrons in it last shell, it can gain one electron to complete its octet and become Cl⁻. The ionic compound of Cl with K is KCl.

Phosphorus has 5 electrons in its last shell it so, it needs 3 more electron to get stable .Sulphur has 6 electron, it needs 2 electrons to get stable. Argon is already stable as it has 8 electrons in its last shell so, it will not gain or loose any electrons.

Therefore, Cl is the element could gain one electron to form an ionic bond with potassium.

Which of the following changes would double the force between two charged particles

Answers

Answer:

Decreasing the distance between the particles by a factor of 2

Explanation:

To double the force between the two charge particles, the distance between the particles should be reduced by a factor of two.

According to coulombs law "force is directly proportional to the potential between the two charges and inversely proportional to the square of their distances".

       F  = [tex]\frac{kq_{1} q_{2} }{r^{2} }[/tex]

F is the electric force

k is the coulomb constant

q is the charge

D. A ramp allows you to decrease force, but requires a greater distance.

Answers

Answer:

A

A pulley changes the direction of your force, but requires a greater input force.

Explanation:

A pulley changes the direction of your force, but requires a greater input force when machine does work. so option A is correct.

What is machine ?

Any tool that makes work easier is a machine. We can complete tasks with the aid of machines by using less force and energy.

By using a simple machine, you can move anything with less effort, but you have to move it farther to do the same amount of labor.

Our bodies function like machinery. For instance, our arms can be compared to a machine that can be utilized to quickly lift objects.

By using a machine to perform work, either the force or the distance across which the force is delivered may rise, but not both at once. In other words, as one grows, either force or distance, the other must decrease. The force-distance trade off is what is meant by this.

Thus, option A is correct.

2) Frustration

5) Bridging

Explanation:

A career can be defined as a person's trade or occupation, which he or she engages and progresses in for a considerable portion of his or her life

When a person is engaged in a career that is not best suited to them can therefore lead to frustration, due to the length of time required in building a career

Agriculture, veterinary and nursing are mainly hands on or time input (for agriculture) careers, that seek to attract young people

The existence of poor health and safety conditions in an organization limits the advancement of individuals in their chosen career within the organization

Therefore, we have;

Career is a sequence of related jobs arranged in a hierarchical order

Wrong choice of career may lead to frustration

Agriculture, veterinary, and nursing provide better attraction to young people

Poor health and safety conditions in an organization causes gative effect on the choice of career

The essence of career planning is the bridging of individual with organizational goal.

Commercial scuba divers use tanks filled with a mixture of gases known as Trimix on very long, deep dives. Trimix is composed of 70% nitrogen, 10% oxygen and 20% helium. The total pressure of the Trimix inside a certain tank at the beginning of the dive is 118.4 atm. A. What is the partial pressure of the oxygen in the tank?

Answers

Answer:

Partial pressure of O = 11.84 atm

Explanation:

To solve the excersise we think in the partial pressure law with mole fraction.

Mole fraction of gas = Partial pressure of gas / Total pressure

We have data of all the mole fractions:

0.70 N0.10 O0.20 H

Let's find out the partial pressure of oxygen in the tank. We replace data in the formula:

0.10 = Partial pressure of gas / 118.4 atm

0.10 . 118.4 atm = Partial pressure of gas → 11.84 atm

If we determine all the partial pressures:

0.70 . 118.4 atm = 82.88 atm → Partial pressure N

0.20 . 118.4 atm = 23.68 atm → Partial pressure He

We can determine the partial pressure of the trimix.

Sum of partial pressures of each gas = Total pressure of the mix

11.84 atm + 82.88 atm + 23.68 atm = 118.4 atm

(A way to see, if our operations were ok)

The partial pressure of oxygen in the tank is required.

The partial pressure of the oxygen in the tank is 11.84 atm.

[tex]x_o[/tex] = The mole fraction of oxygen = 10%

[tex]p[/tex] = The total partial pressure in the tank = 118.4 atm

The mole fraction of a gas is equal to the ratio of partial pressure of the gas to the total partial pressure.

[tex]x_o=\dfrac{p_o}{p}\\\Rightarrow p_o=x_op\\\Rightarrow p_o=0.1\times 118.4\\\Rightarrow p_o=11.84\ \text{atm}[/tex]

The partial pressure of the oxygen in the tank is 11.84 atm.

CH4(g) + 2O2(g) = CO2(g) + 2H2O(g)

How many moles of CH4 are required to react completely with 0.08 mole of O2?

Answers

Answer:

0.04 moles of CH₄  are required

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of CH₄ required = ?

Number of moles of O₂ present = 0.08 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

CH₄ + 2O₂     →   CO₂ + 2H₂O      

now we will compare the moles of oxygen and methane.

                      O₂          :        CH₄

                       2           :           1

                     0.08        :        1/2×0.08 = 0.04

Thus, 0.04 moles of CH₄  are required.

If 56 grams of nitrogen is mixed with 56 grams of oxygen, what is the pressure of each gas if the total
pressure is 1320 Torrs?

Answers

Answer:

pN₂ = 695 torr; pO₂ = 625 torr

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the moles of each gas

The molar mass of N₂ is 28.01 g/mol.

56 g × 1 mol/28.01 g = 2.0 mol

The molar mass of O₂ is 32.00 g/mol.

56 g × 1 mol/32.00 g = 1.8 mol

Step 2: Calculate the total number of moles

n = nO₂ + nN₂ = 1.8 mol + 2.0 mol = 3.8 mol

Step 3: Calculate the partial pressure of each gas

We will use the following expressions.

pN₂ = P × X(N₂)

pN₂ = 1320 torr × (2.0 mol/3.8 mol)

pN₂ = 695 torr

pO₂ = P × X(O₂)

pO₂ = 1320 torr × (1.8 mol/3.8 mol)

pO₂ = 625 torr
