The Earth is larger and has a stronger gravitational pull than does the apple.

An apple falls to the ground on earth due to gravity.
Gravity is a force that applies to earth because of what scientists call space bend. As the earth creates a bend in space because of its matter, a force is created called gravity. If there was no space bend, there will be no gravity and hence the apple will go floating into outer space.

ANSWER FAST!! how is matter changed in chemical reactions?

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Chemical changes cause a substance to change into an entire substance with a new chemical formula. Chemical changes are also known as chemical reactions. The “ingredients” of a reaction are called reactants, and the end results are called products.

What causes a sublunar tide?

makkiz [27]

The oppositional gravitational force of the moon pulls the water on the side furthest from itself. Thus, option "D" is correct.

<h3> How the moon and, to some degree, the sun cause tides on the earth?</h3>

The moon and sun exert a gravitational pull on the earth.

The moon pulls strongest on the ocean water on the same side, lesser on the solid earth, and the least on ocean water on the opposite side of the earth.

The pull creates tidal bulges that are the earth’s high tides. Low tides occur at the halfway point between the bulges.

Thus, option "D" is correct.

If two genes are found on different chromosomes, or if they are far enough apart on the same chromosome that the chance of a cro

Complete question:

A wild-type tomato plant (Plant 1) is homozygous dominant for three traits: solid leaves (MM), normal height (DD), and smooth skin (PP).

Another tomato plant (Plant 2) is homozygous recessive for the same three traits: mottled leaves (mm), dwarf height(dd), and peach skin (pp).

In a cross between these two plants (MMDDPP x mmddpp), all offspring in the F1 generation are wild type and heterozygous for all three traits(MmDdPp).

Now suppose you perform a testcross on one of the F1plants (MmDdPp x mmddpp). The F2 generation can include plants with these eight possible phenotypes:

solid, normal, smooth

solid, normal, peach

solid, dwarf, smooth

solid, dwarf, peach

mottled, normal, smooth

mottled, normal, peach

mottled, dwarf, smooth

mottled, dwarf, peach

Assuming that the three genes undergo independent assortment, predict the phenotypic ratio of the offspring in the F2 generation.

Answer and Explanation:

Cross 1:

Parental) MMDDPP x mmddpp

F1) MmDdPp

Cross 2: Testcross

Parental) MmDdPp x mmddpp

Gametes) MDP MdP MDp Mdp mDP mdP mDp mdp

mdp mdp mdp mdp mdp mdp mdp mdp

Punnet Square)

mdp

MDP MmDdPp

MdP MmddPp

MDp MmDdpp

Mdp Mmddpp

mDP mmDdPp

mdP mmddPp

mDp mmDdpp

mdp mmddpp

F2) 8/64 = 1/8 MmDdPp, solid leaves, normal height, smooth skin

8/64 = 1/8 MmddPp, solid leaves, dwarf height, smooth skin

8/64 = 1/8 MmDdpp, solid leaves, normal height, peach skin

8/64 = 1/8 Mmddpp, solid leaves, dwarf height, peach skin

8/64 = 1/8 mmDdPp, mottled leaves, normal height, smooth skin

8/64 = 1/8 mmddPp, mottled leaves, dwarf height, smooth skin

8/64 = 1/8 mmDdpp, mottled leaves, normal height, peach skin

8/64 = 1/8 mmddpp, mottled leaves, dwarf height, peach skin

Another way of predicting the phenotypic ratio of the offspring in the F2 generation is by performing a testcross for each gene by separately and then multiplying their genotypic proportions. This is:

Leaves Gene

Parental) Mm x mm

Gamtes) M m m m

Punnet Square) M m

m Mm mm

F2) 1/2 Mm

1/2 mm

High Gene

Parental) Dd x dd

Gamtes) D d d d

Punnet Square) D d

d Dd dd

F2) 1/2 Dd

1/2 dd

Skin Gene

Parental) Pp x pp

Gamtes) P p p p

Punnet Square) P p

p Pp pp

F2) 1/2 Pp

1/2 pp

To get the phenotypic ratio of the offspring we multiply the genotypic proportion for each trait by the genotypic proportions of the other two traits, like this:

For plants with solid leaves, normal height, smooth skin

solid leaves ratio -> 1/2

normal height ratio -> 1/2

smooth skin ratio -> 1/2

MmDdPp ratio: 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8

For plants with solid leaves, dwarf height, smooth skin

MmddPp ratio: 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8

For plants with solid leaves, normal height, peach skin

MmDdpp ratio: 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8

For plants with solid leaves, dwarf height, peach skin

Mmddpp ratio: 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8

For plants with mottled leaves, normal height, smooth skin

mmDdPp ratio: 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8

For plants with mottled leaves, dwarf height, smooth skin

mmddPp ratio: 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8

For plants with mottled leaves, normal height, peach skin

mmDdpp ratio: 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8

For plants with mottled leaves, dwarf height, peach skin

mmddpp ratio: 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8
