When elements combine to form compounds what happens to the properties of the original elements?

Biology
1 answer:
exis [7]3 years ago
3 0
The properties of the original elements are completely changed.

For example, in the compound called "iron(II) sulphide", it is composed of iron and sulphur, that are chemically combined together. The element iron is attracted to magnets. Meanwhile, iron(II) sulphide is not attracted to magnets. 

Another example is where sulphur has a yellow colour, but iron(II) sulphide has a brownish colour. As we can see, even the physical properties (colours) are completely different.

Therefore, the properties of the original elements are completely changed when they're combined into compounds.

A heterozygous round seeded plant (Rr) is crossed with a homozygous round seeded plant (RR).
igomit [66]
So I don’t see answer choices here, but your answer is 50% of the offspring will be homozygous dominant with RR, and 100% of them will carry a homozygous dominant gene of Rr

If you take the two sets and put them into a punnett square, it would look like this (image attached):

When the two sets of alleles are crossed, you would end up with half of your pairs being fully dominant (RR), and the other half being dominant while containing a recessive gene (Rr). Since there’s only one recessive gene in these pairs, it gets overridden and the pair itself is dominant.

So your answer is 50% will be homozygous dominant with RR!

</span><span>Autotrophs obtain energy by the process of photosynthesis. Any living organism need energy to survive and autotrophs are no different. Two types of autotrophs are present and they are Photoautotrophs and Chemoautotrophs. The Photoautotrophs rely on the energy produced during the process of photosynthesis and the Chemoautotrophs get their energy from most of the inorganic substances. Phtoautotrophs actually get their energy from the sunlight and then convert it into reusable form. In case of Chemoautotrophs ammonia is an important source of energy for them.</span>
