Biology
1 answer:
natali 33 [55]3 years ago
5 0
In genetics when an organism is heterozygous that means that it contains 2 different alleles for a specific gene, heterozygous refers to the genotype 
Homozygous means the organism carries 2 of the same alleles.

For example there are two alleles for the gene of eye color 
B- is the dominant allele for brown eyes 
b- is the recessive allele for blue

So if a person's genotype is like Bb then he is heterozygous
but if he is like BB or bb then he is homozygous

What is the force of an object that needs a force 4500N to accelerate it at a rate of 5 m/s
babunello [35]

Answer:

The question is somehow not correct, it suppose to be what is the MASS of an object that needs a force 4500N to accelerate it at a rate of 5 m/s as gotten from another website.

The correct answer is 900kg.

Explanation:

To get the mass of the object use the formula

F=Ma

Where F is force

M is mass

a is acceleration.

F= 4500, M=? a=5m/s

4500= M× 5

M=4500/5

M=900kg

Mass is in kg

What contributed to the specification in Darwin's Finch theory
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

On his visit to the Galapagos Islands, Charles Darwin discovered several species of finches that varied from island to island, which helped him to develop his theory of natural selection.

Darwin's finches are a classical example of an adaptive radiation. Their common ancestor arrived on the Galapagos about two million years ago. During the time that has passed the Darwin's finches have evolved into 15 recognized species differing in body size, beak shape, song and feeding behaviour.
