The mass number calculated for an element: The sum of protons and neutrons.

The best answer is D.

The mass number of an element is the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons. Protons and neutrons both weigh about one atomic mass unit or amu.

The nucleus of an atom is made up of protons and neutrons. Both these two types of particles are almost the same size.  Almost all the mass of an atom (99%) is in the nucleus. Atomic mass therefore is really a measure of the size of the nucleus.

In Whitetail deer, there is a gene for coat color. Brown coats (B) are
ahrayia [7]

Answer: All of the offspring are brown. The chances of getting a brown deer is 100%.

Explanation: The buck is homozygous dominant, meaning he has two of the brown (B) allele. The doe is white, and since the allele for a white coat is recessive, it has to have two white (b) alleles.

Set up a Punnett square with BB on one side and bb on the other. The results of this are 4 offspring all with the genotype Bb. Because brown (B) is dominant, all of them are brown.

To find the chance of getting a brown deer, take the number of brown deer (4) and divide it by the total number of outcomes (4). This gets you 4/4 or 1. As a percent, that would equal 100%.

How many consumers are omnivores in the food web below?
lord [1]

Answer:

1

Explanation:

Omnivores are animals that eat both plants and animals. If you look at the bottom of the food web, you need to look for arrows that point towards an animal that also consumes other animals. The arrows indicate that the energy is being transferred from the plants to the omnivore. The Raccoon is the other organism that eats both a producer (blackberries) and other predators such as garter snakes and meadow voles.
