Allotropes of carbon includes substances such as graphite, diamond or buckminsterfullerene.
They’re all similar in the thing that they’re all made out of carbon only.
However, their structure is different, such as graphite has a layer structure, diamond has a tetrahedral structure, and buckminsterfullerene has a spherical structure.
Since they have different structures, they have different physical properties too. For example, diamond is hard because all the carbon atoms in the structure is held together by strong covalent bonds, while graphite are graphene layers that are held by weak intermolecular forces which makes the layers slide over each other easily thus making graphite soft.
Answer:
8 chromosomes in each daughter cell
Explanation:
Mitosis creates identical cells. If there are 8 chromosomes in the parent cell, there will be 8 chromosomes in each daughter cell. The way it works is that in late Interphase, the number of chromosomes and DNA double. In this case there would be 16 chromosomes. And when the cell splits into two during cytokinesis, each of the two would get half the chromosomes. Hence, there would be 8 chromosomes in each daughter cell.
Answer:
The correct option is <em>3. they break down rock into soil in which plants can grow</em>
Explanation:
When a disaster is such huge that even the soil and organic matter get removed from the place, then the succession that will occur in such kind of place will be termed as primary succession. For example, a volcanic eruption or an earthquake.
On the other hand, if after a disaster some of the organic matter remains on the land, then the succession that will occur will be termed as secondary succession. E.g a succession after fire
In primary succession, the pioneer species will be plants that require less soil such as the lichens. The lichens will break down the rocks into the soil and eventually new species of plants will start to grow on the land.
