Giraffes with short necks lived in arid regions. Over time, grasses disappeared, forcing giraffes to eat from trees. Mutations i

n the genome led to some giraffes inheriting the trait for long necks. Over time, there were more giraffes with long necks in the region. What are the two reasons for the change in the population of giraffes? (More than one answer)
- adaptation?
- artificial selection?
- natural selection?
- harmful genetic traits?

I think it would be adaptation and natural selection because both the terms are when an animal adapts to their environment. I hope this helps!

Answer: adaptation

natural selection

Natural selection refers to the differential survival of the organisms in the population. It describe the fact that individual that have favorable phenotypic characteristics have better chances of survival over others in the changing environment. Adaptation is a genetic change or mutation that helps organism to survive in it's ecological niche. Due to the helpful nature of these genetic changes they are passed down from one generation to the next generation and favors the survival and abundance of a species.

Adaptation and natural selection has resulted in the change in the population of the giraffes. The giraffes being in short neck adapted the increase in neck length with an effort to obtain leaves from tall tries. The long neck giraffe got the better chances of survival and reproduction, due to natural selection the trait was passed on to generation. This resulted in the evolution of long neck giraffe species.

If 8.500 g CH is burned and the heat produced from the burning is added to 5691 g of water at 21 °C, what is the final
mojhsa [17]

The final temperature = 36 °C

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The balanced combustion reaction for C₆H₆

2C₆H₆(l)+15O₂(g)⇒ 12CO₂(g)+6H₂O(l)  +6542 kJ

MW C₆H₆ : 78.11 g/mol

mol C₆H₆ :

\tt \dfrac{8.5}{78.11}=0.109

Heat released for 2 mol C₆H₆ =6542 kJ, so for 1 mol

\tt \dfrac{0.109}{2}\times 6542=356.539~kJ/mol

Heat transferred to water :

Q=m.c.ΔT

\tt 356.539=5.691~kg\times 4.18~kj/kg^oC\times (t_2-21)\\\\t_2-21=15\rightarrow t_2=36^oC

What determines a molecules VSEPR shape?
frosja888 [35]
Using the VSEPR theory, the electron bond pairs and lone pairs on the center atom will help us predict the shape of a molecule. The shape of a molecule is determined by the location of the nuclei and its electrons. The electrons and the nuclei settle into positions that minimize repulsion and maximize attraction.

Which is the correct name for p2o5? phosphorus dioxide phosphorus pentoxide diphosphorus pentoxide diphosphorus hexaoxide
Elenna [48]

Correct option:

The correct name for P_{2}O_{5}  is diphosphorus pentoxide.

Why P_{2}O_{5} is called diphosphorus pentoxide?

P_{2}O_{5} is commonly known as diphosphorus pentoxide.

Phosphorus pentoxide has an intriguing property in that P_{2}O_{5} is actually its empirical formula, whereas P_{4}O_{10} is its actual molecular formula.

However, the name of the chemical was obtained from its empirical formula rather than from its molecular formula. The official name for this substance is diphosphorus pentoxide.

Oxygen-containing binary compounds have "oxide" as their "last name." Phosphorus is the "first name."

We list each atom's numbers below:

The di- and Penta- prefixes are used to indicate the presence of two and five oxygen atoms, respectively, in the molecule.
