Hey there!

Which statement best summarizes Gregor Mendel’s contribution to science?

Mendel is considered the "father of genetics". He did NOT increse the number of peas 
produced by a single plant using cross-breeding techniques, discover grean peas and yellow peas, or invent the green pea by cross-breeding thousands of pea plants.

This means your answer is option D.

Hope this helps
Have a great day (:

The correct answer is D.) Mendel is considered the “father of genetics.”

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel was a scientist during the 19th century; he has been mainly recognized due to his experiments with peas. Indeed, during his life, Mendel carried out a set of experiments that involved crossbreeding pea plants with different features such as seed color, flower color, shape and plant height. Additionally, these experiments allowed Mendel to understand genetics or the way genes and traits are passed to new generations; due to this, he became a pioneer in genetics field and this made him the "father of genetics". According to this, the statement that best summarizes Mendel's contribution is statement D.

DochEvi [55]

Scobie will take 10 days to drive around Earth's equator.

To calculate the time that takes Scobie to drive around Earth's equator we need to find the distance, which is given by the equation of a circumference:

$d = 2\pi r$

Where:

r: is the Earth's radius = 6371 km

Then, the distance is:

$d = 2\pi r = 2\pi*6371 km = 40030.2 km$

Now, if we divide the above distance by the speed of the car we can find the time:

$t = \frac{d}{v} = \frac{40030.2 km}{160.0 km/h} = 250.2 h*\frac{1 d}{24 h} = 10 d$

Therefore, Scobie will take 10 days to drive around Earth's equator.

An 80-kilogram skier slides on waxed skis along a horizontal surface of snow at constant velocity while pushing with his poles.

Answer:

The force F is created by the reaction of the Earth to the thrust of the rods, whereby the thrust is created by a force of action and reaction.

Explanation:

To answer this question, let's write Newton's second law of the two axes

Y Axis

Fy + N - W = 0

Fy + N = W

X axis

Fx - fr = 0

Fx = fr

The force F is created by the reaction of the Earth to the thrust of the rods, whereby the thrust is created by a force of action and reaction.

The direction of this force is along the length of the rods that are in an Angle, where the x and y components of the force come from

In general this force is small because the rubbing of the skis is small
