Answer:

True

Explanation:

Osmosis refers to the movement of water particles from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration.

When sprinkled with sugar, a dish of sliced fruit will form its own juice. This is because the sprinkled sugar has a higher concentration which explains why water moves out from the fruit with a lower concentration to dilute the sugar which has a higher concentration.

In a sample population of people, 36% have the recessive trait of "free" earlobes (q2). What is the frequency of the dominant al
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Explanation

Given that 36% are recessive in traits

100-36 = 64% for dominant traits considering a whole population to be 100%

P=dominant allele

q= recessive allele

P2= dominant genotype

q2= recessive genotype

according to hardyweinberg principle, p+q=1

64/100= 0.64 frequency for dominant traits or genotype, therefore

p2=0.64

then

P=√0.64

p= 0.8

Therefore, dominant allele frequency (p) for the population is 0.8

Answer:

A lunar eclipse can only occur when there is a full moon.

Explanation:

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon, Earth and Sun are aligned on a straight line. This alignment completely blocks the sunlight and moon is under the shadow of Earth. In this phase, moon often look red because of reflection of infrared radiations. This happens only where there is a full moon.

It is not possible to occur moon eclipse in any phase because if sunlight would reach the moon surface directly, it is not a moon eclipse Further, lunar eclipse can last upto a few hours because the shadow of Earth is greater because of its size compared to the moon's size and it takes a while until moon is completely out of that shadow. Lastly, a lunar eclipse doesn't create an eerie color in the sky rather a red color due to infrared radiations.
