The right answer is B) homozygous dominant

We speak of homo / heterozygosity about a locus, that can be represented by several alleles (version). The alleles are dominant or recessive between them.

*So homozygote: same alleles

*heterozygote: different alleles


Consider a locus and 2 alleles:

allele R: dominant

allele r: recessively


*heterozygote: R / r

*homozygous recessive: r / r

*homozygous dominant: R / R

MakcuM [25]

The major difference between the particles in a liquid and a gas of the same substance at the same temperature is that; the particles in the gas are moving faster than the particles in the liquid.

There are three states of matter which are;

  • Solid
  • Liquid
  • Gas

The difference between the states of matter lies in;

  • Degree of inter molecular interaction between molecules in a given state of matter
  • Kinetic energy of the molecules in a given state of matter.

Liquid molecules or particles are slower than gas particles because liquid particles have a greater degree of inter molecular interaction than gas particles.

So, the difference between a liquid and a gas at the same temperature is that; "the particles in the gas are moving faster than the particles in the liquid".
