Answer:

Exergonic reaction

Explanation:

  • A chemical reaction which is associated with a release of energy and thus, is associated with a negative free energy change is said to be an exergonic reaction.
  • An exergonic reaction owing to the negative free energy change is a spontaneous reaction.
  • The energy that is released in the exergonic reaction is usually observed  in the form of heat and light.
  • The energy is released due to the breaking of the chemical bonds.
  • Therefore, on burning of the firewood the bonds between the glucose molecules break up which leads to the release of energy in the form of heat and light and this is thus, an example of an exergonic reaction.

What is the expected phenotypic ratio of the offspring of a a BbPp*BbPp cross if these alleles sort independently?
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Let's consider that the allele 'B' is for Black hair colour and it is dominant. Let's consider that the allele for red hair colour is b.

Let's consider the allele for lacking horns or polles is 'P' and it is dominant. The allele for having horns is 'p' and it is recessive.

When two heterozygous black, lacking horns (BbPp) are crossed, the results will have the probability of 9 black/polled : 3 black/horned : 3 red/polled : 1 red/horned organisms.

What does this same experiment tell you about light waves?
lianna [129]

Answer:

For any experiment we can say that light waves are the electromagnetic waves because they make up what is known as the electromagnetic spectrum.

Explanation:

  • Light is the moving energy form that is made up of tiny particles known as photons.
  • The light waves comprises of both magnetic and electric aspects hence known as electromagnetic.
  • The process of propagation of light wave is : the fields vibrates perpendicularly in the same direction of propagation of the wave, and at 90 degree angle with each other.
  • Similar to sound waves, light wave can interfere with each other.
