Answer:

Average atomic mass = 21.38 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of first isotope = 21 amu

Abundance of first isotope = 62%

Mass of second isotope = 22 amu

Abundance of second isotope = 38%

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass  = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass  = (62×21)+(38×22) /100

Average atomic mass =  1302 +836 / 100

Average atomic mass = 2138 / 100

Average atomic mass = 21.38 amu.

telo118 [61]

Answer:

The correct answer is innate behavior.

Explanation:

The behavior that gets monitored by genes and goes through the process of natural selection is termed as an innate behavior. This form of behavior takes place naturally and it just requires a specific kind of stimulus in order to get initiate. Instinctive behavior is the other term for innate behavior.  

The tendency of an animal to perform a specific behavior after getting exposed to the stimulus for the first time is known as instinct. It can be said that one cannot learn innate or instinct behavior. It is performed by all the species in a similar manner irrespective of the surroundings. Caring for offspring is one of the examples of innate behaviors performed by the species that even demonstrate the basic life functions. Innate behaviors play an essential role in transmitting or passing genes to the coming generations.
