Because ice is less dense than liquid water,
its melting point is lowered under high pressures.

A long standing theory says that this is what causes ice to be slippery:

As you step on it, the pressure of your weight causes the top layer to my into water.

What are some of the phenotypic plant traits that scientists are investigating? Why do you think these traits were chosen?
vodomira [7]

The term phenotype in a more specific context to describe the collective expression of the genotype in conjunction with the environment on a plant's observable characteristics.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Phenotype, any of the measurable features of an organism arising from its genotype association (total genetic inheritance) with the environment. Behaviour, biochemical properties, colour, form, and scale are examples of measurable characteristics.
  • An allele is another type of one gene. A phenotype triggered by the expression of a gene or group of genes is the external manifestation of a human trait.
  • A trait is an attribute unique to an organism. The genotype's external expression is called the phénotype.

A machine lifts a 35 kg object doing 6860 J worth of work. How much power is produced by the machine if it lifts the object in 4
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

We need the power equation for this which is

P = Work/time

We have everything we need to solve this (the mass of the object is extra information):

P = 6860/4

P = 1715W
