The statement that alleles on homologous chromosomes determine traits, correctly describes the mechanism of inheritance.

Homologous chromosomes are defined as a pair of chromosomes which have the genes arranged on them in the same order however the alleles may be different.

The chromosome pair of homologous chromosomes is formed because a diploid organism has one paternal and one maternal chromosome, and when these 2 chromosomes pair together we get a homoglous chromosmes.

The variants of a particular gene present on the chromosome are known as alleles.

The combination of the alleles transferred from the parents to the offspring is responsible for the inheritance of traits.

A researcher recorded that a chemical reaction required 2.90 gal water and raised the temperature of the reaction vessel by 57 F

Bess [88]

A. 11.0 L is the researcher's volume measurement to the SL units of liter

Explanation:

Given that a researcher recorded that the chemical reaction has water = 2.90 gallon.

We have to convert the researcher's volume into the SL units of liter.

So, we know that 1 gallon = 3.875 liters.

Then we have to convert 2.90 gallons of water in to liters.

Then , volume in L = $(volume\ in \ gal) \times (3.875 L/1 gal)$ = $(2.90) \times (3.875L/1 gal)$

= $11.0L$

Then the required volume in $L= 11.0L$
