Answer:
F: The oxygen atom has a greater attraction for the electrons in the surrounding covalent bonds than the
hydrogen atoms.
Explanation:
Between hydrogen and oxygen atoms exist a covalent bond. Oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen atom hence its ability to get attracted to itself more electrons than hydrogen.
Answer:
The trait is inherited in the homozygous recessive pattern
Possible mating is between two heterozygous individuals
Explanation:
One possible explanation for this is that the trait for this brown mice has to inherited in the homozygous recessive condition. It is possible for this trait to skip two generations and then reappear if it has to be inherited in the homozygous recessive condition.
Another explanation to complement the first is that for this trait to reappear, there was mating between two heterozygous individuals (with one allele being domiant and the other being recessive). It is possible that all matings within the two skipped generations was between an heterozygous and a homozygous dominant or between two homozygous dominant individuals which will not produce the brown mice..
<span>Both somatic and germinal mutations are contributors of evolution. Somatic mutations occur within tissues of individuals that give the said individual differing traits and characteristics. Germinal mutations occur in reproductive cells that can be passed on to offspring, altering their traits and characteristics.</span>
