The correct answer is B. An electron orbital describes a three-dimensional space where an electron can be found 90% of the time.
Explanation:
Electrons are negatively charged particles found in atoms. These different from protons and neutrons are not located in the nucleus of the atom but orbit it. Additionally, electrons do not orbit the nucleus following a linear pattern but they have a wave-like behavior which means they move in a three-dimensional space or area known as electron orbital in which they can be found most of the time, this space of area is determined depending on energy, momentum, and other factors. Thus, an electron orbital is "a three-dimensional space where an electron can be found 90% of the time".
For evolution to occur:
There must be genetic variation in a population. This provides variation on which natural selection can act. Then natural selection can act by selecting those species which are better adapted to the environmental conditions. Over time those animals that are best suited to the environment only will survive and reproduce. Those organisms successful genes will be preserved and eventually the gene frequency in the population will change, changing the overall characteristics of a population. This is how evolution occurs.
Answer:
An ecologist must consider both of the speciation and extinction of an organism or when analyzing the diversity the life on earth because of the following reasons;
- It is a role of an ecologist
- It is part of their job
- This will tell the existence of the organism
- The organism’s life span on earth
- How it was existed and were extinct
Explanation:
A mineral is a naturally occurring, inorganic compound with a unique chemical structure and physical properties. A rock is a solid, stony mass composed of a combination of minerals or other organic compounds. For example, quartz and feldspars are minerals, but when formed together, they make a rock, granite.
ANSWER: Human beings have been manipulating the genetic characteristics plants and animals since the introduction of agriculture indirect manipulation of human genes occurred with widespread use of public health and medical measures that preserve genes causing disease. The production of biologicals by DNA technology raises few ethical problems. Predictive medicine in which genetic markers (including DNA variants) are used for antenatal and preclinical diagnosis of genetic diseases and susceptibilities poses new questions of confidentiality, private versus societal goals, and self-determination. When normal DNA is used to treat the somatic cells of patients with hemoglobinopathies and other genetic diseases, no new ethical problems arise beyond those presented by an novel theory. In contrast, manipulation of DNA in human fertilized eggs would constitute a qualitative departure from previous therapies since this would affect future generations. In order to be able to make wise decisions on these matters the public must be well informed. Thus, formal and informal education in human biology and genetics must be improved at all levels.
