Compounds consist of atoms of different elements. In compound the atoms are present in fixed proportion. By changing the proportion compound will changed. For example,
Nitrogen and oxygen reacted to form the compound. By changing the proportion both will form different compound.
NO₂
Nitrogen dioxide consist of one atom of nitrogen and two atoms of oxygen. Their ration is 1 :2
NO
In nitric oxide one atom of oxygen and one atom of nitrogen are present.
Their ratio is 1 : 1.
N₂O
Nitrous oxide consist of two nitrogen atoms and one oxygen. Their ratio is
2 : 1
N₂O₄
Dinitrogen tetroxide consist of two nitrogen atoms and four oxygen atoms. Their ratio will written as 2 : 4
N₂O₅
Dinitrogen pentoxide consist of two nitrogen atoms and five oxygen atoms. Their ratio will written as 2 : 5
Answer:
12-day litter weight is a trait that has an important genetic influence and therefore also a high response to selection
Explanation:
Heritability is a statistical measure of how much of the variation in a given trait can be attributed to genetic differences and how much of trait variation is due to environmental factors. A heritability value close to 1 indicates that almost all of the variability is due to genetic factors, while being poorly influenced by environmental factors. In this case, 12-day litter weight is a trait that exhibits an important genetic component (i.e., a high heritability value), thereby the correlation between parent and offspring will be high and lines selected for this trait will show a high response to selection.
Nitrogen is special because it is necessary for growth and reproduction. It's needed for plants and animals to survive. The main function for the atmosphere i believe is to give oxygen and nitrogen.
