Four different thermometers were used to measure the temperature of a sample of pure boiling water. The measurements are recorde

d in the table
below.
Thermometer
Temperature Temperature Temperature
Reading 1 Reading 2 Reading 3
100.1°C 99.9°C 96.9°C
100.4°C 102.3°C 101.4°C
90.0°C 95.2°C 98.6°C
90.8°C 90.6°C 90.7°C
The actual boiling point of pure water is 100.0°C

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The thermometer can be defined as a device which is used measure the temperature of the substance.

The thermometer Z is more reliable because the the readings are similar and close to the original temperature of the water.

The readings like 100.4°C 102.3°C 101.4°C are very close to 100°C. Hence, it can be said so that the thermometer Z is reliable as there is not much deviation in the original reading and observed reading.

hence, the correct answer is option B

Which of the following offspring genotypes could result from the fertilization of an egg that had undergone nondisjunction in me
Lorico [155]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

<em>Non-disjunction occur as a result of lack of separation of homologous chromosomes during meiosis. </em>

As a result, the gametes (the daughter cells formed) produced end up having extra or lesser chromosomes as compared to a normal gamete.

When a gamete with extra chromosome fertilizes a normal gamete, the resulting offspring will have an extra chromosome (trisomy condition).

On the other hand, when a gamete with one less chromosome than normal fertilizes a normal gamete, the resulting offspring will have one less chromosome than normal offspring (monosomy condition).

Assuming a chromosome with Aa gene undergoes non disjunction during meiosis, the resulting gametes either contain both A and a chromosome or contain no chromosome at all.

If Aa gamete is fertilized by a normal haploid sperm (a), the resulting zygote will have the genotype Aaa.

If a gamete with no chromosome at all fertilizes a normal haploid sperm, the resulting offspring will have the genotype a.

What is the activation energy of a chemical reaction?
alexandr402 [8]

A substance that modifies the transition state to lower the activation energy is termed a catalyst; a catalyst composed only of protein and (if applicable) small molecule cofactors is termed an enzyme. It is important to note that a catalyst increases the rate of reaction without being consumed by it.
