1. If ice is melting, energy is applied. We need energy whenever we need to change the state either from solid to liquid or from liquid to gas. The energy is used to break the molecular force between the water molecules of the ice so that they can be farther apart and become liquid state.

2. And at atomic level, the atoms are speeding up. Part of the energy is used to increase the kinetic energy of the ice particles, since the faster the particles are, the hotter an object will be. Therefore, since melting requires the ice to become a hotter substance, the particles are obviously moving faster.

A gene that affects hair length in dogs has two alleles. The allele for short hair (L) is dominant
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A. Only recessive alleles are inherited from homozygous parents.

B. Dominant alleles grow weaker as they are passed from parents to offspring.

C. Only the parent with a dominant allele can pass that allele to offspring in sexual reproduction.

D. A heterozygous parent has an equal chance of passing either the dominant allele or the recessive allele to offspring.

The answer is D

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for hair length in dogs. The allele for short hair (S) is dominant over the allele for long hair (s). This means that allele 'S' will always mask the phenotypic expression of allele 's' in a heterozygous state.

According to the question, two heterozygous dogs (Ss) were crossed to produce 6 shortt-haired offsprings and 2 long-haired offsprings. An heterozygous organism is that which contains two different alleles for a particular gene i.e. a combination of dominant and recessive alleles.

Based on this, during meiosis or gamete formation, an heterozygous dog (Ss) will produce gametes with the short hair allele (S) and long hair allele (s) in equal proportion i.e. 50-50. When the two gametes containing the recessive alleles (s) produced by each heterozygous parent fuses, an offspring with a recessive phenotype (long hair, ss) is produced.

Hence, a long-hair

phenotype can appear in the offspring of two short-haired dogs because a heterozygous parent has equal chance of passing either the dominant or recessive allele to the offspring.
