Answer:
Explanation:Artificial selection is distinct from natural selection in that it describes selection applied by humans in order to produce genetic change. When artificial selection is imposed, the trait or traits being selected are known, whereas with natural selection they have to be inferred. In most circumstances and unless otherwise qualified, directional selection is applied, i.e., only high-scoring individuals are favored for a quantitative trait. Artificial selection is the basic method of genetic improvement programs for crop plants or livestock (see Selective Breeding). It is also used as a tool in the laboratory to investigate the genetic properties of a trait in a species or population, for example, the magnitude of genetic variance or heritability, the possible duration of and limits to selection, and the correlations among traits, including with fitness.
Answer: A balloon is charged by a process of frictional charging and the object is getting charged by the process of induction.
Explanation:
When two bodies are rubbed against each other, charging by friction or rubbing occurs. The electropositive object loses electrons to electronegative object. Thus, when balloon is rubbed on a wall, it becomes charged.
The charged balloon is able to attract an uncharged object by inducing charge on it without the two objects touching each other. Electrostatic force acts between two charged objects. Charged balloon causes electrons to move at one end thereby inducing opposite charge in the object and thus, charged balloon is able to attract uncharged object.
Answer:
gold wire (Au)
Explanation:
A substance that cannot be separated or broken down into simpler substances by chemical means is an element.
Between the given options only gold wire is an element, Au.
A way of knowing that it is an element is noticing that its formula is a single symbol which corresponds to an element found in the periodic table, unlike a combination of said symbols (like NaCl or H₂O).
Answer:
690 g IrI₃
Explanation:
To convert from moles to grams, you have to use the molar mass of the compound. The molar mass of IrI₃ is 572.92 g/mol. You use this as the unit converter in this equation:
Round to the lowest number of significant figures which is 2 to get 690 g IrI₃.
Answer:
They mostly dissolve in water, and they are poor conductors of heat.
