Answer:
Cross-pollination
Explanation:
This technique is used to create new varieties, usually with stronger characteristics than the two original varieties. When the pollen of <u>one variety</u> is placed to a <u>different plant's stigma</u>, the resulting seeds create a new variety. This cross-pollination is used in plants of the same species.
Answer:
2gcm⁻³
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of the object = 20g
Volume = 10mL
Unknown:
Density of the object = ?
Solution:
Density of a body is its mass per unit volume;
Density = 
We need to convert mL to cm³ for the volume
1mL = 1cm³;
10mL is therefore, 10cm³
So;
Density = 
= 2gcm⁻³
Answer:
CH3CH3CH2CH3
Explanation:
Octane is a non-polar compound. It is a hydrocarbon with 8-carbon length along its chain.
It belongs to a special group of hydrocarbons called alkanes.
What makes a substance soluble in another?
It is a common phrase that "like dissolves like". This is applicable to solubility of substances in another.
- A polar solvent will freely and easily dissolve a polar solute. For example, water and salt.
- A non-polar solvent will also dissolve a non-polar solute. This case, hydrocarbons will dissolve themselves.
- The first option is a butane, a 4-carbon length hydrocarbon which will be dissolved in octane.
- Both compounds are non-polar.
Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. However, I assumed you are referring to the article found on the Scientific American website.
Explanation:
<em>Remember,</em> according to that article we are told that scientists notice that these insects have a long nymphal (immature form before becoming adults) stage, one that can last up to 13 to 17 years on the ground before they leave the ground looking for mating partners.
Because it is only after mating occurs at this point that their eggs are laid, that is why scientists believe that cicadas only reproduce every 13 or 17 years.
