Andrei [34K]

One of the probable ways to determine how long ago any two species of bacteria diverged from each other is by drawing a phylogenetic tree.

Explanation:

  • Phylogenetic tree are trees that show the ancestry of two species of interest and the relationship between them.
  • The idea behind the construction of phylogenetic tree is darwins's "descent with modification theory".
  • A phylogenetic tree is constructed using the similarities or differences in either physical characteristics, behavorial, or genetic buildup.
  • Derived traits shared between the different species are the actual data used to construct a phylogenetic tree.

Which situation allows for evolution during gene duplication?
kherson [118]

The right answer is B.

Mutations are not always unfavorable, they are often "indifferent" as to the survival of the cells or the individual.

Mutations are the primary source of variation in the genetic material underlying the evolution of living things. They can have a beneficial effect for the species.

What is the maximum mass of S8 that can be produced by combining 77.0 g of each reactant?
g100num [7]
The balanced equation is
<span>8SO2 + 16H2S ----> 3S8 + 16H2O
</span>so
77g SO2 / 64g/mole = 1.203moles  of SO2 
<span>77g H2S / 34g/mole = 2.26moles  of H2S 
</span>now 

<span>1.203 moles SO2 yields 3/8x amount that is = 0.456moles  of S8 
</span>so
<span>2.06moles H2S yields 3/16x amount = 0.386moles of S8 
</span>hence
H2S = produce  only 0.386moles  of S8 = 98.98g S8
