Asexual reproduction involves the production of offspring without the need for a secondary partner to contribute genetic information.

Pollination and mating are two forms of sexual reproduction, so B, C, and D are incorrect. A, because the new potato grows directly from the old without the contribution of new genetic material, asexually reproduces.

Answer:

(A) a new potato plant grows from a potato

Explanation:

Asexual reproduction is the kind of reproduction by which offspring arise from a single organism, and inherit the genes of that parent only; it does not involve the fusion of gametes, and almost never changes the number of chromosomes.

In the case of a potato plant growing from the main potato, the singled parent potato is responsible for the development of the new offspring and  determines the genetic make up of the new plant and subsequent potatoes. In the particular scenario, their is no fusion of gametes  and this form of reproduction is not sexual.

The table compares some characteristics of two atoms.
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Atom X,

Neutron num = 4, Mass num = 7

Therefore, proton number = Mass num - Neutron num

                                           = 7 - 4

                                           = 3

Atom Y,

Neutron num = 5, Mass num = 9

Therefore, proton number = Mass num - Neutron num

                                           = 9 - 5

                                           = 4

1) False. Atom X belongs to group 3 while atom Y belongs to group 4

2) False. Atom X is in a column on the left of Atom Y

3) True. Atom X and atom Y belong to the same period two on the periodic table

4) Fasle. Atom X and Y are not isotopes because they do not have the same atomic number.

Isotopy is a phenomenon whereby atom of same element have same atomic number but different mass number

Chapter 2.4.1. The ______ energy lost by the inward movement of nickel-iron within a differentiating molten planetary body would
Gwar [14]

Answer:b. gravitational, kinetic, thermal

Explanation:

The above explains the mechanism of the core forming process on earth/planet.

It is believed that this process might has contributed significantly to a planet's early stages heating. The time when these core-forming event happened is thought to have been mainly completed very early when Earth was young . The type of this event rather than it being seen as a single catastrophic event, it is likely to have been as a result of contractions on the earth severally.

The addition of partially differentiated material from another giant impact the rate of this spasm , and it increases each time the planet's mass is to increased.

This is a little on the history of planetary evolution.

An unknown compound displays singlets at δ 2.1 ppm and 2.56 ppm in the ratio of 3:2. what is the structure of the compound?
olasank [31]

1) As can be seen from any 1H NMR chemical shift ppm tables, hydrogens which have δ values from 2ppm to 2.3ppm are hydrogens from carbon which is bonded to a carbonyl group. From this, we can conclude that our hydrogens belong to the type, but from 2 different alkyl groups because of 2 different signals.

 

2) So, one alkyl group is CH3 and second one can be CH or CH2.

 

3) If we know that ratio between two types of hydrogens is 3:2, it can be concluded that second alkyl group is CH2. 


4) Finally, we don't have any other signals and it indicates that part of the compound which continues on CH2 is exactly the same as the first part.

The ratio remains the same, 3:2 ie 6:4
