Alkanes are linear, or branching, compounds that are made of varying numbers of carbon atoms that are all saturated with hydrogen atoms. The formula for an alkane is CnH(2n+2). This means that the number of hydrogen atoms equals twice the number of carbon atoms, plus two. Methane is the simplest hydrocarbon possible.
A. alleles are variations of a gene trait
Answer:
The experiment should have more different subject groups, with each group consuming a different amount of beta carotene.
Explanation:
When designing an experiment, to determine the effect of the amount of a substance, the experimental design should be done to accommodate more than two experimental group with each group treated with different amount of the substance and also a control group. This will enable the researcher to determine the effect of the different ranges of amount.
In the example, in other to determine if vitamin A is dependent of the amount of beta carotene consumed, there should be more different subject groups, with each group consuming a different amount of beta carotene.
Because they are reproductive organs of a plant
Answer:
convergent evolution.
Explanation:
When organisms of distantly related species or groups are found in similar environmental conditions, they develop some similar features which are otherwise not present in their ancestral species. This is called convergent evolution. Convergent evolution also results in the development of similar traits in the distantly related organisms that are found in distantly located geographical regions having similar environmental conditions. Therefore, the presence of the same features in rodents and flying squirrels represent convergent evolution.
