elena55 [62]3 years ago

Cancer is the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the body. Cancer develops when the body's normal control mechanism stops working. Old cells do not die and instead grow out of control, forming new, abnormal cells. These extra cells may form a mass of tissue, called a tumor.

Would the surface temperature of white dwarf stars be higher or lower than red supergiants?
Liula [17]
The surface temperature of white dwarf stars is higher than that of red super giants. White dwarf stars are extremely hot when they form, and they start cooling off as time goes by. Red supergiants, on the other hand, are enormous dying stars, and they are quite cool. So, having this in mind, white dwarves are hotter than red supergiants. Hope I helped! :) If it’s wrong then I’m sorry!

How does one prevent such a fire from happening​
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

water

Explanation:

Water puts out fire by creating a barrier between the fuel source and the oxygen source (it also has a cooling effect which has to do with the energy required to convert liquid water into water vapor). It does this because it is a completely, 100% oxidized material. It simply cannot oxidize any further so it will not “burn”. This smothers the fire. The same thing would happen if you used the ashes that remained after a completely spent fire. Or, as I mentioned before, CO2.

Evolution can be guided by random processes. What is the effect called when some genotypes are lost in a small population over t
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Genetic drift

Explanation:

Genetic drift is defined as the random change in allelic frequencies from one generation to the other.

Genetic drift is an evolutionary mechanism in which the allelic frequencies in a population change through many generations. Its effects are harder in a small-sized population, meaning that this effect is inversely proportional to the population size. Genetic drift results in some alleles loss, even those that are beneficial for the population, and the fixation of some other alleles by an increase in their frequencies. The final consequence is to <u>randomly</u> fixate one of the alleles. Low-frequency alleles are the most likely to be lost. Genetic drift results in a loss of genetic variability within a population.  

Genetic drift has important effects on a population when this last one reduces its size dramatically because of a disaster -bottleneck effect- or because of a population split -founder effect-.
