Answer:

It reflects solar energy back into space and lowers temperatures.

Explanation:

In volcanoes magma can rise close to the surface, come into contact with water sheets and form steam. If your pressure rises too much, the vapor eventually breaks the surface and releases the magma, which, outside the volcano, becomes lava. Therefore, in addition to lava and ash, the volcano expels water vapor and various gases, such as carbon dioxide and sulfur gases. Gases and ashes rise into the atmosphere and reflect solar energy back into space and reduce temperatures. In addition, ashes cause various problems for aviation.

Answer:

The process that balance the the unfavourable entropic contribution from protein folding is the rearrangement of the water molecules around it.

Explanation:

Proteins are often in aqueous solutions. And around the protein, the water molecules are distributed in the way thermodynamically most favorable. So, the water molecules interact with the aminoacidic residues of the protein, making posible for the macromolecule to exist in solution.

During protein folding, are formed several interactions among the aminoacidic residues, which are responsible for the structure the protein adopts.

At the beginning it might seem this process shouldn't be possible, as the transition from one state to another more ordered one isn't spontaneous.

But as these new interactions are formed, an enormous amount of water molecules that were interacting with the protein are "released", being able to adopt several more configurations, in other words, gaining entropy.

In summary, the reduced entropy from the protein folding is balanced by the gain in entropy by the water molecules in the surrounding medium, which allows the process to occur.

Answer:

Genotypic results: 1 (TT):2 (Tt) :1 (tt)

Homzygous Dominant: 1/4

Heterozygous: 1/2

Homzygous Recessive: 1/4

Phenotypc results: 3 tall: 1 short

Tall: 3/4

Short: 1/4

Explanation:

This question involves a gene coding for height. The alelle for tallness (T) is dominant over the allele for shortness (t). According to this question, a cross between two Brassic rap parent plants known to be heterozygos tall (Tt) is performed.

Each parent will produce gametes T and t. Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following offsprings will be produced:

TT (1), Tt (2), and tt (1)

Based on this result, the following results are obtained:

Genotypic results: 1 (TT):2 (Tt) :1 (tt)

Homzygous Dominant: 1/4

Heterozygous: 1/2

Homzygous Recessive: 1/4

Phenotypc results: 3 tall: 1 short
