Asexual
Pro:
1. inexpensive to make offspring (usually make a lot at a time and not invest a lot of time in raising them).
2. Do not need a mate to reproduce.
3. Can rapidly expand a population
Con:
1. genetically identical- prone to extinction because once a parasite has evolved to attack a specific genotype, it can kill them all.
2. Lineages usually don't last longer than a couple thousand years

Sexual:
Pros:
1. Genetically unique- so more likely to create a "successful" offspring
2. Lineages more likely to last hundreds of thousands of years

Cons:
1. More effort into creating offspring- require more parental effort
2. STD's- easily to pass
3. need to find a mate or else won't be successful as an organism.

Hope this helps you.

What best describes the collision between ideal gas molecules
Alika [10]
An ideal gas is defined as one in which all collisions between atoms or molecules are perfectly eleastic and in which there are no intermolecular attractive forces. One can visualize it as a collection of perfectly hard spheres which collide but which otherwise do not interact with each other.

Part C: complete the third column <br> Part D: complete the fourth column
Helga [31]

Answer:

Part C: P2 = 0.30 atm

Part D: V1 = 16.22 L.

Explanation:

Part C:

Initial pressure (P1) = 2.67 atm

Initial volume (V1) = 5.54 mL

Final pressure (P2) =.?

Final volume (V2) = 49 mL

The final pressure (P2) can be obtained as follow:

P1V1 = P2V2

2.67 x 5.54 = P2 x 49

Divide both side by 49

P2 = (2.67 x 5.54)/49

P2 = 0.30 atm

Therefore, the final pressure (P2) is 0.30 atm

Part D:

Initial pressure (P1) = 348 Torr

Initial volume (V1) =?

Final pressure (P2) = 684 Torr

Final volume (V2) = 8.25 L

The initial volume (V1) can be obtained as follow:

P1V1 = P2V2

348 x V1 = 684 x 8.25

Divide both side by 348

V1 = (684 x 8.25)/348

V1 = 16.22 L

Therefore, the initial volume (V1) is 16.22 L

1 kg of water (specific heat = 4184 J/(kg K)) is heated from freezing (0°C) to boiling (100°C). What is the change in thermal en
Andrews [41]

Answer: 1560632 joules

Explanation:

The change in thermal energy (Q) required to heat ice depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Given that:

Q = ?

Mass of frozen water (ice) = 1kg

C = 4184 J/(kg K)

Φ = (Final temperature - Initial temperature)

= 100°C - 0°C = 100°C

Convert 100°C to Kelvin

(100°C + 273) = 373K

Then, Q = MCΦ

Q = 1kg x 4184 J/(kg K) x 373K

Q = 1560632 joules

Thus, the change in thermal energy is 1560632 joules

How many carbon atoms are represented by the model below<br><br> A) 0<br> B) 3<br> C) 2<br> D) 1
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Option (B) 3.

Explanation:

In the model represented above, the two extreme represent carbon atoms since no other group are attached to it. The joint at the middle also represent carbon atom.

Thus, we can write a more simplify illustration for the model above as

C—C—C

From the above illustration, we can see that the model contains 3 carbon atom.
