Allotropes of carbon includes substances such as graphite, diamond or buckminsterfullerene.
They’re all similar in the thing that they’re all made out of carbon only.
However, their structure is different, such as graphite has a layer structure, diamond has a tetrahedral structure, and buckminsterfullerene has a spherical structure.
Since they have different structures, they have different physical properties too. For example, diamond is hard because all the carbon atoms in the structure is held together by strong covalent bonds, while graphite are graphene layers that are held by weak intermolecular forces which makes the layers slide over each other easily thus making graphite soft.
The answer is <span>Conduct a test cross with a purebred recessive plant.
</span>
Test cross is the cross between an organism with unknown dominant genotype and an organism with known recessive genotype.
<span>Since dominant trait results from a dominant allele, the test cross can determine if an unknown genotype is heterozygous and homozygous dominant. </span>
If A is dominant allele, and a is recessive allele, then AA is dominant homozygote, Aa is a heterozygote, and aa is recessive homozygote.
<span>According to the Punnett square, if all of the offspring are heterozygote (Aa), then unknown genotype is dominant homozygous (AA). If half of the offspring are the heterozygote, and the other half are recessive homozygote, then the unknown genotype is heterozygote (Aa).</span>
I know how to do punnet squares, but could you show the full question please?
Answer:
The correct answer would be C. The tortoises provided evidence that different species have adaptations suited to their particular environments.
Darwin observed that how different environment on different island lead to the development of different species as a result of adaptations and natural selection.
For example, tortoise inhabiting well-watered islands which used to have short and cropped vegetation had developed a dome-shaped shell.
In contrast, the tortoise inhabiting the arid islands had developed saddle-shaped shells. It is because they needed to stretch their necks in order to reach branches of cactus and other vegetation available in the area.
Consequently, they developed long necks and high peak to the front edges of their shells. It made it possible for them to stretch their heads vertically.
