Answer:

1.07\cdot 10^{-3} m

Explanation:

The peak wavelength of the spectral distribution can be found by using Wien's displacement law:

\lambda=\frac{b}{T}

where

b=2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m\cdot K is Wien's displacement constant

T is the absolute temperature

For the cosmic background radiation, the temperature is

T = 2.7 K

So, the corresponding peak wavelength is

\lambda=\frac{2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m\cdot K}{2.7 K}=1.07\cdot 10^{-3} m

What are two things that determine our traits? If someone could answer asap, that would be awesome!
zepelin [54]
In thinking about inherited traits, geneticists use two important words: genotype and phenotype. Genotype refers to the genes an organism inherits from its parents and phenotype refers to the observable characteristics of an organism: how it develops, looks, reacts and behaves. An inherited trait refers to a phenotypic characteristic, for example flower color, length of gestation or ability to metabolize cellulose. All traits have a genetic basis.
