Peppered moths come in two colors, black and white. What did Kettlewell show, with regard to peppered moth populations and tree

coloring? (Recall that England at the time was heated mainly by coal in urban areas.) A) In smoggy areas, dark moths have a higher survival rate than white moths. B) White moths stand out in rural areas, and quickly disappear from those areas. C) The black moth and white moth forms were actually two different species of moths. D) Environmental conditions do not affect physical features of a species over a short time period.

Answer is: A) In smoggy areas, dark moths have a higher survival rate than white moths.

The light moths will be captured by predators more easily than the dark moths, and the population of dark moths will rise.

This is example of natural selection and adaptation.

Predators will easily capture white moths and their population will drope.

Moth populations can survive in a variety of different situations, because the environment is constantly changing and different alleles are favored.

A is the answer because the trees turned blackish from the coal so moths that were black could camouflage on those trees easier.

What does a chemist do​
Mama L [17]
A chemist (from Greek chēm (ía) alchemy; replacing chemist from Medieval Latin alchimista[1]) is a scientist trained in the study of chemistry. Chemists study the composition of matter and its properties. Chemists carefully describe the properties they study in terms of quantities, with detail on the level of molecules and their component atoms. Chemists carefully measure substance proportions, reaction rates, and other chemical properties. The word 'chemist' is also used to address Pharmacists in Commonwealth English.

Would aluminum be as useful as food wrapping if it had a much lower melting point? Explain your answer.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

The correct answers are as follows:

1. Aluminium will not be useful as food wrapping if it has a much lower melting point.

Aluminum is a metallic element that is malleable and soft, thus, it is easy to beat it into thin sheet, which are used to package food. The thin sheet is called aluminium foil. Aluminum is useful as a food wrapping because it has high temperature and thus, it does not react with food (the hotness of the packaged food is not capable of melting the metal). If the melting point of aluminium is lower, this implies that little temperature, such as the one from hot food will be able to melt aluminum foil, thus allowing the food to be contaminated with the metal.

2. When bleach react with fabric dye chemical change occur in the fabric.

The major element in bleach is chlorine. When laundry bleach is added to a fabric, the chlorine component of the bleach will react with the fabric dye and cause a colour change in the fabric. This type of change is called chemical change, because the original colour of the fabric can not be recovered.

3. Every substance has specific properties, which can be used to identify it. Two of such specific properties are melting point and boiling point. Melting point refers to a specific temperature at which a solid substance will melt while boiling point refers to a specific temperature at which a liquid substance will boil and turn to steam.

Water for instance has a boiling point of 100 degree Celsius. To find out if an unknown substance is water, one can determine the boiling point of such liquid. A boiling point of 100 degree Celsius will strongly signify that the substance is probably water. The same thing applies to melting point. If the specific boiling and melting point of substances are known, then they can be used to identify them.

A 7.12 L cylinder contains 1.21 mol of gas A and 4.94 mol of gas B, at a temperature of 28.1 °C. Calculate the partial pressure
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

P_A=4.20atm\\\\P_B=17.1atm

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the equation for the ideal gas is:

PV=nRT

For each gas, given the total volume, temperature (28.1+273.15=301.25K) and moles, we can easily compute the partial pressure as shown below:

P_A=\frac{n_ART}{V} =\frac{1.21mol*0.082\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*301.25K}{7.12L} \\\\P_A=4.20atm\\\\P_B=\frac{n_BRT}{V} =\frac{4.94mol*0.082\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*301.25K}{7.12L} \\\\P_B=17.1atm

Best regards!

Help me answer this chemistry question. thank you!
Leona [35]

Answer:

A. How much decay happens in each flashlight

Explanation:

In an experiment, the DEPENDENT OR RESPONDING VARIABLE is the variable that responds to changes being made to another variable called Independent variable. It is the variable that is measured by an experimenter.

In this question, an experiment was carried out to research the effect of sunlight on plastic decay. Three plastic flashlights were used for this experiment in which one was placed in a dark closet (control), and the others were placed in light at different times or intervals. However, the variable being measured or assessed is the decay of each flashlight. This means that "HOW MUCH DECAY HAPPENS IN EACH FLASHLIGHT" is the dependent variable.
