Answer:

The atomic mass of silver is 107.86 amu

Explanation:

The atomic mass is calculated by formula

Atomic mass = (Mass of first isotope x Abundance of first isotope) + (Mass of Second isotope x Abundance of second isotope)

In case of silver, the formula will be as

Atomic mass = (Mass of Ag-107 x Abundance Ag-107) + (Mass of Ag-109 x Abundance Ag-109)

Mass of Ag- 107 = 106.9

Mass of Ag- 109 = 108.9

Abundance of Ag-107 = 51.82/100 = 0.5182

Abundance of Ag-109 = 48.18/100 = 0.4818

Putting these values in the formula

Atomic mass of silver = (106.9 x 0.5812) + (108.9 x 0.4818) = 107.86 amu

Can the environment and the heritage be used to describe evolution?
guapka [62]
Evolution is caused by genetic mutations that become favorable for survival.

For example if a bird has a mutation that gives it a longer beak and it lives in an environment in which a longer beak lets the bird catch more food- the longer beak becomes a favorable trait.

Now the bird is able to survive “better” thus it lives longer(due to its ability to catch more food). Because of this it reproduces more and passes the trait on to its offspring.
Overtime this mutation takes over the population of birds in the area.
