Answer:
C. Mutations are a change in DNA or a chromosome and can be helpful, harmful or may have no affect.
Explanation:
- Mutations are spontaneous random changes that occurs in the genetic make up of an organisms. Mutations are rare and their rate of occurrence is random.
- Mutations may occur on the gene level known as gene mutations or at chromosome levels called chromosomal mutations.
- Mutations may be beneficial, harmful or have no effect on a given organisms. Harmful mutations cause disorders that may lead to abnormality or death of an organisms. Beneficial mutations improve an organisms adaptability to the environment.
Answer:
6.4 L
Explanation:
When all other variables are held constant, you can use Boyle's Law to find the missing volume:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
In this equation, "P₁" and "V₁" represent the initial pressure and volume. "P₂" and "V₂" represent the final pressure and volume. You can find the theoretical volume by plugging the given values into the equation and simplifying.
P₁ = 3.2 atm P₂ = 1.0 atm
V₁ = 2.0 L V₂ = ? L
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ <----- Boyle's Law
(3.2 atm)(2.0 L) = (1.0 atm)V₂ <----- Insert values
6.4 = (1.0 atm)V₂ <----- Simplify left side
6.4 = V₂ <----- Divide both sides by 1.0
The number of energy levels to which an electron can jump depends on the amount of energy the electron possesses. Each energy level has a specific amount of energy an electron needs to have before it can be in there. So, if an electron doesn't have enough energy to be in that energy level then it won't jump to that higher level.
A space-filling model shows the relative amount of space each atom takes up. In other words, a space-filling model can show relative sizes of atoms. However, unlike ball-and-stick or structural models, space-filling models do not show bond lengths clearly. Bonds are not really like sticks in a ball-and-stick model.
