Answer:

Surface tension due to cohesion

Explanation:

Water molecules are polar meaning they have dipoles. The hydrogen end is partially positive while the oxygen end is partially negative. This is because oxygen with high atomic mass attracting most of the molecule's electron cloud to its end.

Due to this phenomenon water molecules act like little magnets that attract each other. The attraction of the molecules forms hydrogen bonds with each other. This is called cohesion (attraction of similar molecules).  Due to this, water is able to create a surface tension that acts like a ‘skin’ and can support some weight (including its own weight) without collapsing.

How can a baby show traits that the parents don't show
uysha [10]

Answer:

If he or she doesn't look like dad, it might be because he or she hasn't gone through the environmental pressures that will cause the change. If your father's child works outdoors or spends a lot of time outside, there's a good chance that he probably has darker skin than your child.

The area affected by the ship that were involved in an accident is = 333 million liters

An oil spill can affect bird nesting near a contaminated body of water through its food chain.

<h3>What is oil spillage?</h3>

Oil spillage is defined as the release of used or oil wastes into a water body through a tanker, offshore drilling rig, or underwater pipeline.

The area affected by the ship that were involved in an accident can be calculated by the addition of the various areas affected by the tanker, ship and super tanker.

That is, 32,000 + 1,200,000 + 332,000,000

= 333,232,000

Which is approximately 333 million liters.

A bird that is nesting near the contaminated body of water can be affected through its food chain.

This is because birds which depends on fish can eat fish for this contaminated water which must have accumulated some level of harmful organic substances on its body surfaces.

Therefore when eaten by the bird their health would be affected negatively.

Suppose a male organism has a diploid chromosome number of 6. These chromosomes could be represented as A,a, B, b, C, and c wher
KatRina [158]

Answer:

A. The haploid set of n is ABC

B. ABC, ABc, AbC, aBC, abc, abC, aBc, Abc.

Explanation:

A diploid cell is a cell that comprises of two complete sets of chromosomes. This is double the haploid chromosome number. Each pair of chromosomes in a diploid cell is noted to be a homologous chromosome set. A homologous chromosome pair consists of one chromosome donated from one parent and one from the other parent. This number is represented as 2n. It varies in different organisms. A diploid cell replicates via mitosis. It preserves its diploid chromosome number by making an identical copy of its chromosomes and distributing its DNA in an equal manner between two daughter cells.

Haploid refers to a cell that contains a single set of chromosomes. Gametes are made up of half the chromosomes contained in normal diploid cells of the body, these are also known as somatic cells. Haploid gametes are produced during meiosis. Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in a parent diploid cell by half.

Therefore,

Karyotype of this organism is designated as AaBbCc.

AaBbCc is the diploid set (2n).

Hence ABC or abc are the haploid set (n).

B. The eight different combinations of these chromosomes that could possibly be produced by spermatogenesis in this male are:

ABC, ABc, AbC, aBC, abc, abC, aBc, Abc.
