Answer:

a) HT

Explanation:

This question shows an animal with two distinct unlinked genes i.e. on different chromosomes. One gene codes for head shape and the other for tail length. The gene for head shape possess alleles H and h, while gene for tail length possess alleles T and t.

According to Mendel's law of independent assortment, the alleles of a gene will separate into gametes independently of the alleles of another gene. This occurs in such a way that each gamete will contain only one allele from a gene.

Based on this principle, an animal with genotype HhTt will undergo meiosis and randomly produce gametes with the following allelic combinations: HT, Ht, hT, and ht. As seen in the gametes, only one allele of a gene occured in a gamete at a time.

Therefore, HT is the genotype possible in a gamete of parent: HhTt.

Explain how the boiling of water and the cooling of water vapor is a reversible reaction.​ With hydrogen bonds between water mol
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

When water is boiled water molecules changed into vapors when these vapors condensed water changed into liquid.

So it is reversible reaction.

Explanation:

Water molecules are connected through the hydrogen bonding. When water is boiled the kinetic energy of water molecules increased and point is reached when kinetic energy is so high and water molecules overcome the external pressure and escape from the surface. Thus water molecules convert into vapors.

In case of cooling process extra energy is released. Vapors becomes cooled and kinetic energy decreased vapors are changed into liquid state.

When water is boiled water molecules changed into vapors when these vapors condensed water changed into liquid.

So it is reversible reaction.
