Hello!

The sentence that best describes what Colton discovers is D) The mass of the melted ice cube remained the same at 4 grams.

<h2>Why?</h2>

The melting of the ice cube is a physical process. That means that it is a process in which the identity of the substance (water) doesn't change, but only how their molecules are arranged.

In melting, a substance in the solid state changes to the liquid state. Its molecules go from having a definite volume and shape to having the same shape as the container that holds it, but there are no changes in the mass of the substance.

If the container is closed, Colton should record the same mass as the initial one, as mass doesn't change in physical processes.

Have a nice day!

2. In sheep black wool is recessive to white wool. What happens when you mate a black ram (male) to a heterozygous ewe (female).
sveta [45]

Answer:

50% will be white (Ww) and 50% will be black (ww)

Explanation:

Here's what the punnett square should look like.

In order for the black ram to have its coloring it would need to have 2 recessive genes (ww). The female is heterozygous, meaning she carries both genes (Ww) but only exhibits the dominant gene, in this case white fur (though they can pass the recessive gene on to their children). Simply filling out the punnett squares shows the outcome of the offspring.

Romashka [77]
The 2.5% solution is said to be Hypertonic to the cellular concentration. A hypertonic solution is one that has a bigger solute concentration outside of the cell, which mean the cell will loss water due to the osmosis process.

There are five basic Hardy-Weinberg assumptions: no mutation, random mating, no gene flow, infinite population size, and no selection. If the assumptions are not met for a gene, the population may evolve for that gene (the gene's allele frequencies may change).
