Capillary action is the ability of water to travel up narrow tubes. true or false

Biology
1 answer:
LenaWriter [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Adhesion of water to the walls of a vessel will cause an upward force on the liquid at the edges and result in a meniscus which turns upward. The surface tension acts to hold the surface intact. Capillary action occurs when the adhesion to the walls is stronger than the cohesive forces between the liquid molecules.

What is the probability that the offspring will have purple flowers?; What is the phenotypic ratio for the purple flowers?; What
Luda [366]

The probability that the offspring will have purple flowers is 50% chance Let's go ahead and assume that:

The allele A corresponds to the color of flowers.

As a result, A would stand in for the alternate white hue and represent the dominating purple color.

According to the aforementioned hypotheses, a white flower would have the genotype aa while a heterozygous purple blossom would have the genotype Aa.

Now let's connect the two flowers:

Aa x aa

Aa Aa aa aa

The genotypes, phenotypes, and odds of the offspring would be as follows based on the cross's outcomes:

Purple color, Aa; 1/2

white flower color, aa, 1/2

In other words, there is a 50% chance that the cross will result in offspring with the flower colors purple (genotype, Aa) and white (genotype, aa).

Alleles can be described as 1. dominant 11. recessive III. codominant IV. partially dominant V. incompletely dominant O A. I, II
joja [24]

Answer:

A. I, II, III, and V only

Explanation:

In genetics, an allele refers to the specific form of a gene, which encodes traits. These alleles are usually in pairs in a diploid organism i.e. an organism with two sets of chromosomes. According to Gregor Mendel,

- An allele can either be DOMINANT when the allele masks the phenotypic expression of its allelic pair while the allele that is masked is said to be RECESSIVE.

- Two alleles can also be CO-DOMINANT when the two alleles are neither dominant or recessive over one another but are simultaneously expressed in that particular gene.

- Alleles can also be INCOMPLETELY DOMINANT when one allele is not completely dominant over the other, hence, forms a third intermediate phenotype when in combination with the second allele i.e. in an heterozygous state.

Based on this, an allele can be dominant (I), recessive (II), codominant (III), and incompletely dominant (V).

What would you would need in order to work in forensic science field (one to two sentences).
White raven [17]
A forensic scientist must have a minimum of a bachelor’s degree. Although a degree in natural science or forensic science is recommended, some crime scene investigators begin as police officers and lean on their work experience to move into the investigator position. They might hold an associate degree or certificate.
