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.
<span>Because protons are positively charged and neutrons have no charge then it is safe to say that such an atomic model would have the positive charge concentrated in the center of an atom (option d).</span>
Answer: -2m/s2
Explanation:
Using the following equation ; acceleration = Change in velocity / time
i.e a = v - u / t
where 'a' = acceleration
v = final velocity
u = initial velocity
t = time
Therefore; from the graph we have acceleration to be, 0 - 6m/s / 3s = -2m/s2
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Crystals can be made from methanol by recrystallizing the plant extract from methanol.
The methanol/water system is heated rapidly using a hot plate and the plant extract dissolves in the heating solution until a clear solution is obtained.
The solution is now cooled rapidly. The interior of the flask used for the re crystallization may even by scratched to assist the quick formation of crystals. Large crystals of plant compounds may be obtained using this method. This process should be carried out in a fume hood because of the toxicity of methanol.
Answer:
The structure that is located between the auricle and the eardrum is the ear canal.
Explanation:
The ear canal, or external ear canal, is a a tubular hole about 30 mm long that runs from the auricle to the eardrum, forming part of the external ear.
Its function is to conduct sound, in the form of vibrations, from the outside to the eardrum. It also has the function of producing a viscous secretion called cerumen, capable of trapping dust particles and small foreign bodies.
Other options are not correct because:
- <em>Stirrup is located in the middle ear, along with the anvil and hammer.
</em>
- <em>Cochlea is in the inner ear and continues with the auditory nerve.</em>
