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.

What is the mass of 3.0 x x times 10^23 atoms of neon?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

10.09 grams

Explanation:

First you need to know the number of moles you are dealing with.

If you know that each mole has 6.022x10²³ of something (in this case of atoms), you can divide 3x10²³ atoms of neons by 6.022x10²³ to obtain the number of moles.

You have 0.5 moles of Neon, so then by the periodic table, you see that the molar mass of neon is 20.18g/mol, so by each mole you have 20.18 grams of neon. Multiply 20.18 grams by 0.5 moles and you got 10.09 grams of Neon

A reaction was suppose to produce 20 L of gas. Only 12 litters of gas were produced in the lab. What is the percent yield for th
pogonyaev

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 60 \%}}

Explanation:

Percent yield is a ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield. It is found using this formula:

\% \ yield= \frac {actual \ yield}{theoretical \  yield} *100

The actual yield is 12 liters, because that was actually produced in the lab.

The theoretical yield is 20 liters, because that was the expected yield.

\% \ yield= \frac {12 \ L}{20\ L} *100

\% \ yield= 0.6*100

\% \ yield= 60

For this reaction, the percent yield is 60%.

Why do atoms share electrons in covalent bonds??
ra1l [238]
Atoms in covalent bonds do combine so as to be stable. As covalent bond consist non metals e.g O2 in this example each atom has vacance of 2 orbitals/ electrons so shairing electrons result their stability
