As liquid water freezes, the molecules arrange themselves in a way that takes up more space than liquid water. What would most l

ikely occur if the arrangement of frozen water molecules required less space than that of liquid water molecules? (2 points)
The density of ice would be greater than the density of liquid water, and ice would not float.

Ice would form in layers, and liquid water would get trapped in between the layers.

Liquid water would have a higher specific heat, making it less likely to undergo vaporization.

The freezing point of water would decrease, making ice more difficult to for

The answer would be A. When water freezes, it gets more space as a solid than it does as a liquid. Similar number or particles, but it will get more space and is therefore less dense. If water, when it froze, will get less space than water when it was liquid; meaning that the solid water would be more dense than the liquid water. Therefore it would sink to the bottom.

The appropriate answer is A. the density of ice would be greater than the density of liquid water and so ice would not float. Density can be defined as mass per unit volume. Any substance whose mass is great and occupies a relatively small volume is going to be dense.

Water expands by nine to ten percent when it freezes and this expansion increases the space occupied or the volume and so the density of ice is less than water.

Bacteria provide genetic engineers with __ and __
exis [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Bacteria provide genetic engineers with <u>_vector_ </u>and <u>_host_.</u>

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Vector are vehicles or carriers which are used to carry the gene of interest. They are usually plasmids which are bacterial circular genome which can replicate independently.

Hence bacterial plasmids are used for the insertion of gene of interest and its transfer to the host cell.

As plasmids is taken from the bacteria, so mostly bacteria is used as the host for the gene of interest.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

mtDNA is inherited from the mother of a child, this is because mitochondria are in the cytoplasm and the father's gamete (sperm cell) contributes very little or no cytoplasm to the zygote. We know that mitochondrial Eve came from Africa because the mutations in the mtDNA occurred before the <em>out-of-Africa dispersal</em>.

Sympathetic fibers leave the spinal cord in the ________.
AlexFokin [52]

The correct answer is: C) thoracolumbar region, and the postganglionic fibers secrete norepinephrine

The pathway of autonomic nervous system (sympathetic and parasympathetic) involves two:

                       1. Preganglionic neuron - from CNS (spinal cord or brain) to the autonomic ganglion, all of these fibers release acetylcholine (Ach)

                       2. Postganglionic neuron - from the autonomic ganglion to the cells of the effector organ, parasympathetic postganglionic fibers release acetylcholine while sympathetic postganglionic fibers release norepinephrine.
