Correct answer:
"<span>D. because iron is denser than silicate minerals"

Considering the formation of the Earth. We know that Earth's mass was formed by accretion. Over time, many many years, the material started to be organised by densities thanks to gravity. The Earth's core is mainly made out of iron because iron is denser than silicate materials which are the most common on the Earth's crust. </span>

AB+CD (reactant~higher on graph) ---&gt; AC+BD (product~lower on graph)
amid [387]

Answer: Option E) the products have less potential energy than the reactants

Explanation:

Though the actual graph is not displayed, but, whenever reactants occupy a position higher than the product on the graph of reaction coordinate vs time taken, it means the reactants (AB+CD) have molecules with higher energy bonds than the products AC +BD

Thus, the reaction of AB + CD to yield AC+BD will occur spontaneously with the release of energy.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The correct answer is - no.

tresset_1 [31]

Hello. This question is incomplete. Also, you forgot to show the flowchart. The flowchart is attached below and the full question is:

The flowchart below shows the three generations of a cross between a pea plant that has yellow pods and a pea plant that has green pods. Green pods are the dominant trait. The flowchart is missing the labels that describe the traits.

In which squares should the phrase “Green pods” appear?

1.A and D  2.B and E  3.A,C and D  4.A,B,C,D and E

Answer:

3.A,C and D

Explanation:

As shown in the question above, the flowchart shows the crossing of a pea plant with dominant features (green pods - AA) and a pea plant with recessive features (yellow features - aa). The crossing between plants with AA and aa alleles generates a completely Aa population, which in this case, has the dominant characteristic, that is, it has green pods. This is because the "Aa" alleles are called heterozygous and develop the dominant characteristic.

As we can see in the flowchart, the crossing between the two pea plants generated an offspring that is identified by table C, as we know this offspring has green pods and in the flowchart it is represented by a grayish rectangle. Therefore, we can say that the other gray rectangles represent pea plants with green pods, which are rectangles A, C and D.
