Answer:

Tigers and lions able to mate to produce cubs,but those cubs would not be able to go on to produce any off spring because their sex chromosomes do not match.

Explanation:

Tigers and lions mate to produce ligers and tilons but they do not produce viable sperms or egg.
In an organism there are two copies of chromosomes present in the somatic cells.
But in case of sex cells they receive each set from mother and father. which they duplicate and divide during formation of gametes via meiosis.
in such case if the sets are recieved from two different species then after pairing a mismatch will occur in the gene loci.For example, a eye colour gene may correspond to a paw length gene.
Thus the gametes when produced will not be viable.

Given the reaction _K(s) +_ Cl2(g) → _KCl(s) what is the amount of K, in grams, needed to completely react with 2 moles of Cl2(g

damaskus [11]

Answer:

156.4g K

Explanation:

I'm not sure if it is correct but I think it should be this

What do we know so far?: 2K + 1Cl2 -> 2KCl, 2 mol of Cl2

What are we looking for?: #g of K

What is the ratio of K to Cl2?: 2:1

Set up equation: 2molCl2 x $\frac{2mol K}{1 mol Cl2}$

Cancel unwanted units: 2 x $\frac{2mol K}{1}$

Answer we got: 2 x 2mol K = 4mol K

Converting moles to grams: 4 x 39.1 (molar mass of K) = 156.4g K
