Answer:
In this given statement , the plastic base becomes negatively charged because plastic is an insulator . And the metal cup does not become charged because metal is a conductor.
Explanation:
<u>Reason behind , why plastic base becomes negatively charged -:</u> When a plastic base is rubbed with a dry cloth in the metal trophy, electrons are shifted from one material to the other. Thus, the substance that gains electrons (which is the plastic base) becomes negatively charged. thus , the plastic is an insulator , which causes charge (negative ) by rubbing.
<u>Reason behind , why the metal cup does not become charged -:</u> The metal cup is a conductor, and the surplus charge on the metal flows to the person who charges the cup and to the ground so that it is not charged. Thus, rubbing a metal can trigger hand\finger injury because metals generate excess heat in rubbing .
Answer:
The answer is C.
A 5 percent increase in the reproductive success of some genotypes, but a 5 percent decrease in the reproductive success of other genotypes
Explanation:
Incomplete question, here is the full question: https://quizlet.com/153540854/biology-107-part1-flash-cards/
For the genetic structure of a population to change, we can either depend on natural selection or mutations but there has to be an imbalance.
The answers given in the options A and B are referring to changes in genotypes which surely affects the genetic structure of the population but the way these options are given is in equilibrium, meaning they create and imbalance but then counter that with something else.
In option C, some genotypes get a 5 percent increase while some get a 5 percent decrease in their reproductive success, which will most likely result in a change in the genetic structure of a population.
I hope this answer helps.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
When humans dig-up fossil fuels and burn them to power the modern world, <u>carbon flows between the Geosphere/lithosphere and the atmosphere.</u>
Both the geosphere and the atmosphere represent important reservoirs of carbon. The digging-up of fossil fuels, otherwise known as exploration, is carried out in the geosphere or the lithosphere part of the earth. For example, crude oil is obtained deep from the ground. When the fuels are burned, they release carbon in the form of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
<em>Hence, it can be concluded that carbon flows from the geosphere/lithosphere part of the earth to the atmospheric portion of the earth when fossil fuels are burned.</em>
The correct option is B.
Answer:
Tt - 1/2
tt - 1/2
Explanation:
<em>A cross between a tall pea plant and a short pea plant that produces 43 tall and 47 short offpsring (almost 1:1) is most likely a cross involving a heterozygous tall individual and a homozygous short individual.</em>
Tt x tt
Offspring = Tt Tt tt tt (50% tall and 50% short)
If one of the tall offspring (Tt) is crossed with one of the short offspring (tt):
Tt x tt
Offspring = Tt Tt tt tt
Genotype ratio = 2Tt:2tt
Hence,
Tt = 1/2
tt = 1/2
