To reproduce (asexually). Most unicellular organisms only live for mere hours. The best bet for the species to survive and thrive as a whole is for them to reproduce, or replicate.

In the currently accepted atomic model, an electron orbits the nucleus in a clear, defined path.

Alex777 [14]

FALSE

In the currently accepted atomic model, an electron orbits around the nucleus is NOT in a clear, defined path.

Explanation:

According to modern atomic models, like the Bohr theory, it is difficult to know the exact location and path of an electron around the nucleus. This is partly because the mere act of observing the electrons changes its position. This is because the electrons have negligible mass and therefore ‘hitting’ them with any form of radiation for ‘illumination’ changes its position, behavior, and properties. In addition, the movement of electrons is very rapid such that by the time one observes the instantaneous location of an electron, if it was possible, it will have changed its position.

Therefore modern theories, such as VSPER, model atoms based on properties of where an electron will highly likely be found. This is how the shells and subshells of electrons (s, p, d, f) are modeled.

In maize, a dominant allele A is necessary for seed color, as opposed to colorless (a). Another gene has a recessive allele wx t

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

1/2 Aa Wx wx (colored seeds, normal starch)
1/2 aa Wx wx (colorless seed, normal starch).

Explanation:

A (colored seed) is dominant over a (colorless)
Wx (normal starch) is dominant over wx (waxy)

Both loci are independent.

A Aa WxWx individual was test crossed (crossed with a homozygous recessive aa wxwx individual).

The homozygous recessive can only produce a wx gametes.
The dihybrid individual can produce two types of gametes, all of them with the same frequency because the genes segregate independently: 1/2 A Wx and 1/2 a Wx

The possible offspring resulting from the combination of those gametes is:

1/2 Aa Wx wx (colored seeds, normal starch)
1/2 aa Wx wx (colorless seed, normal starch).

kotegsom [21]

Bacteria without plasmid will only grow in the media without penicillin since it doesn't have immunity.
Bacteria with recombinant plasmid with VGP gene, non-recombiant plasmid, Recombinant plasmid but no vgp gene can grow in both media(with or without penicillin) because they can withstand penicillin.
