Answer:
Stephen is not his biological father.
Explanation:
DNA fingerprinting is a technique use to determine the DNA sequence of an individual organism. Short tandem repeats are unique among the individuals ans used to identify the individual in population.
The George DNA fingerprinting shows that he has STRs length of 6 and 7. Stephen's STRs does not match with his son George whereas Mary shows some similarities with George STRs. This indicates that Stephen is not the biological father of George because the biological father's STRs must match with the children STRs.
Thus, the correct answer is option (a).
Answer:
Covalent bonds form when two atoms share valence electrons,
while Van der Waals forces cause an attraction between nonpolar
molecules
Explanation:
A covalent bond is said to be formed when two atoms of the same or different elements share electrons. In an ordinary covalent bond, each bonding atom contributes one valence electron while in a dative covalent bond only one of the bonding atoms provides the shared pair of electrons.
Van Der Waals forces is the major intermolecular interaction between non polar compounds. Van Der Waals forces " are caused by correlations in the fluctuating polarizations of nearby particles"(Wikipedia).
The correct answer for this question would be option A. The one that is considered not a logical pairing <span>of another environmental factor that will possibly affect the bluegill population with how that factor would affect it is the ACID RAIN. The rest are considered as factors that would affect the population of the bluegill. Hope this answer helps.</span>
The intermediate disturbance hypothesis predicts that species diversity will be highest when the frequency and/or intensity of disturbances are intermediate
Explanation:
The diversity of the species is maximised at an intermediate near of anthropogenic as well as natural disturbances. As the competitively inferior disturbances are being tolerated for species disturbance and are termed to be dominant. Co exist of the sensitive species when the disturbance are either frequent or rare, which possess the reduced level of the disturbances. the productivity is predicted as very less due to competitive exclusion. As the disturbances increases productivity becomes less as most of them unable to sustain the regular destructive occurrence. So with the intermediate disturbances productivity is high as the rapid colonizers and dominant competitors are able to coexist.
