I am not 100% sure but I believe that because of increased manufacturing, the air got very polluted and this made many trees darker, like birch. So moths are usually lighter in color so many couldn’t really hide among trees and they were eaten. After some time, many moths mutated and also became darker to blend in when they were on trees to prevent being eaten by predators. In conclusion, the population decreased.

Answer:
The model is inaccurate because the base pairs are incorrect.
Explanation:
The model of DNA that the student made was:
G-G
A-A
T-T
C-C
G-G
A-A
T-T
C-C
The model is pairing the bases incorrectly since guanine (G) forms a base pair with cytosine (C) and adenine (A) with thymine (T). In other words, the bases do not pair with the same type.
The DNA strands, which have deoxyribose, phosphate groups, and different bases, are together thanks to hydrogen bonds between the pairs. The pair G-C has three hydrogen bonds, while the pair A-T has two hydrogen bonds.
Answer:
Explanation:
The acid is becoming less acidic. Similarly, when an alkali is diluted with water the concentration of OH - ions decreases. This causes the pH of the alkali to fall towards 7, making the solution less alkaline as more water is added.
Answer:
Nuclear decay rates are constant
Explanation:
Spontaneous decay of unstable nuclei is a process of a statistical nature, it is not possible to predict with certainty when an individual radioactive nucleus will decay, nor can the decay process be influenced in any way.
Therefore, the half-life of radionuclides (specific for each radionuclide) is defined as the time period in which half of the initial number of radioactive nuclei decays.
The unit of measurement for the radioactivity of the material is the becquerel (Bq) and denotes the number of decays in one second (1Bq = 1 decay / 1 second).
